yes i tried like : String fileName = Spire.License.LicenseProvider.GetLicenseFileName(); Spire.License.LicenseProvider.SetLicenseFileFullPath(Server.MapPath(file\Spire.License.xml)); Spire.License.LicenseProvider.LoadLicense(); but it still unresolved.

Sumit Jolly · Answer

I saw that...and it seems licensing issue...I read that you've copied license file also and it's still unresolved. Have you tried this: http://www.e-iceblue.com/Knowledgebase/Licensing/Licensing.html
