Hi

I just installed sepm on a new enviorment, using the 12.1.3 media, install goes find when go to install my serial number, as in these steps -> http://www.symantec.com/business/support/index?page=content&id=HOWTO55294#v47636909

I put my serial number in go activate, then it pops up asking for company details, site contact etc etc, i have done install a number of times using 12.1.1/12.1.2/12.1.3 with out it doing this before, once i put that details, at the end of that asks for an .slf which i do not have.

Anyone have any ideas? why its suddley asking for these details where it hasns't before?

.slf file is the license file what you would have received from the licensing team.

if you put your serial number it needs to connect to licensing.symantec.com make sure your firewall is enabled for it.

Did you receive an SLF file when you purchased the product?

Hello,

in the worst case, just call the Customer Support and ask to get the license file (SLF):

i managed to get hold of my slf file. With this it worked

Just wondering why the serial number i have used before stoped working,(used serial number 10 times previouslly with out any issues)  i could get to the web site (https://tus1gwynwapex01.symantec.com/) as it suggusts

For whatever reason, you can only use it to download a limited number of times. At least this has been the case in my experience.

wasns't to download media, i already had copies of media downloaded.

I installed it then went to activate SEPM
