Licencing

Free licence

The first Guerilla licence is free. Make sure your computer has access to internet and run Guerilla.

Purchased licence

The Guerilla Render licences come in two flavors, as a single node-locked licence file, or as a server-based licence. Once you have purchased your Guerilla licence, proceed with the following steps to enable the licence on your Guerilla.

Licence file

Copy the guerilla.licence file into your installation directory and restart Guerilla.

Licence Server

Installing the licence server

Windows

Install Guerilla on the server machine, and choose 'Licence Server' during the installation setup. The licence server is a Windows service that starts automatically after the installation.

Copy the guerilla.licence file into the installation directory and restart the licence service in the services window.

Linux

Install Guerilla on the server machine.

Copy the guerilla.licence file into the installation directory.

Start the licence server with the following command : "${GUERILLA}/render --ls" where GUERILLA is the Guerilla installation directory. You may have to install it as a daemon.

You can control if the server is up and how many licences are used/left by browsing http://yourlicenceserver:19200/

Select the licence server in Guerilla UI

Open Guerilla, set the server host or IP in Preferences > Local Settings > Licence, and restart.

Select the licence server in the configuration files

You can access the server host and port in the Guerilla configuration files. Add the following lines to enable the licence:

LicenceServer = yourhost
LicenceServerPort = 19200

The licence server port is optional, and will use 19200 as the default value.
