The license server MUST be started as root it will then change to user freeswitch but to setup everything it can't start as anyone but root.

Hi Folks,

Thank you everyone. Solved by lunching server separately.

I have the same problem:
freeswitch@internal> g729_info 
Can't contact licence server.

Quite recent freeswitch version (3 days old - git 2b4f163826132cf55698008a22c065374320796a) 
installed in /opt/freeswitch and started with "/opt/freeswitch/bin/freeswitch -nc"
No problem nor warning using fsg729-191-installer.
The licence server starts automatically upon loading of mod_com_g729.

I registered succesfully some licences.

I even tried to restart freeswitch, I killed licence server and launched manually...
The licence server starts but I still get "Can't contact licence server." 

I notice only a weird thing trying to autocomplete g729_ on fs_cli:
[      g729_available]    [          g729_count]    [           g729_info]    [           g729_used]    
[      g729_avaliable]    

Any hints ?

Thanks very much in advance

Regards
Massimiliano
