Flame licensing outage across Europe

The dreaded licensing issue has reared its ugly head. I have my internet but I get the message: The required connection to Autodesk for license validation could not be established, blocking the named user licensing workflows. Please check your internet settings or click here to know more.

Anyone else having this lovely good morning message on a Monday morning?

Edit: It appears to be happening all around Europe at least. Blame is put on AWS outage, I’ll try to update…

Same here. Happy Monday all.

Yes here too. Rumours that it may be an issue with AWS.

Same here.. can’t even contact support to report as manage.autodesk.com seems to be down…

back in work… all Flames are running again

I sort of wish this didn’t happen very late on a Sunday night for Pacific time zone. If it happened on a Friday afternoon PDT, maybe Autodesk would reconsider their licensing strategy.

AWS outages are always interesting - one could say, single point of failure for the world economy. But that’s less an ADSK failure, because even if Flame ran, FrameIO and many other things are down too, so your pipeline will get stuck one way or the other. And your client no doubt will know about it already.

I wish this had happened on Friday afternoon as well Sinan because I could have downed tools and buggered off up the pub.

I’m having issues here in the USA. My token amount is incorrect and buying a month license is not working either. I couldn’t even get a live person on the chat, nor submit a ticket. Good times.

This morning, Flame not launching and supermarket not accepting credit cards. Yep, good times.
