Configure the server address

If you have On-Prem Qt License Server or Offline Qt License Server, you have to configure the server address for Qt License Service.

In Qt License Service version 3.4 or later, to set the server address, run:

<Qt SDK>/Tools/LicenseService/qtlicensetool --set-server-address <URL>
<Qt SDK>\Tools\LicenseService\qtlicensetool.exe --set-server-address <URL>

To ensure the server address is correctly set, run:

<Qt SDK>/Tools/LicenseService/qtlicensetool --get-server-address
<Qt SDK>\Tools\LicenseService\qtlicensetool.exe --get-server-address

With older Qt License Service versions, configure the server address in the configuration file:

  1. Open the qtlicd.ini file.
  2. Set the value of server_addr to the address and port of Qt License Server. The default is the Cloud Qt License Server instance hosted by Qt. If you're using On-Prem Qt License Server or Offline Qt License Server, set the address accordingly.
