Unregistered Serial Key

Issue Description

From within the Chronicall/ACR Status window, the following error message is displayed:

Unregistered Serial Key! Not Logging!

Cause

The Chronicall/ACR serial key is associated with the unique hardware profile of the server on which Chronicall/ACR is installed. This hardware profile is used to generate a Chronicall/ACR Info Hash. Whenever the known Info Hash for a particular serial key does not match the current hardware profile of the machine running Chronicall/ACR, the Chronicall/ACR status window will display an error and logging will stop. 

Resolution

Remove the Old Serial Key

If the old machine is still available, you can unregister the serial key allowing the new hardware to be registered.

1. On the previous Chronicall/ACR server, navigate to Admin(System) > System Settings > Basic Settings > Serial Key 
   • Tip: You can copy this serial key down in order to register it to the new server
     
     
2. Select "Unregister Serial"
   
   
   
   
   • A prompt will ask you to verify that you want to unregister the serial key.
     
     
      
3. Click "Yes" to unregister the serial key
   
    
   • You may receive a second prompt saying that the serial key couldn't be unregistered but that it will be removed from the settings.
     
4. You should now see that the serial key is no longer in the serial key box
5. Click on "SAVE" button at the bottom of the System Settings page
   • This will take you back to the Chronicall Main Menu

How To Register a New Serial Key

1. Navigate to Admin(System) > System Settings > Basic Settings > Serial Key
2. Enter the new Serial Key
3. Click on "Register"
   
   
   
   
   • The serial key should register successfully
     
     
     
     
   • You will then see a screen telling you to relaunch your login
     
     
     
     
4. Click on SAVE at the bottom of the System Settings page
5. Relaunch Chronicall/ACR
   • Exit and then Reopen
6. You should now see that Chronicall/ACR is back up and logging again.
   • If not, call Xima to reset your info-hash on the back end

Reset the Info Hash

If the old machine is no longer available, the Info Hash associated with the Serial Key will need to be reset by contacting the Xima Care Support Team. Have your Serial Key handy to expedite this process
