I am trying to upgrade from a trial version of WSAD 5.0 to the licenced version. However i got "Trial period has Expired ......." even after i installed the licenced version.
Note :
  • I uninstalled the trial version before installed the licenced version.
  • I rebooted my machine before trying the licenced version
  • I didnt have the Services(of Windows) open


  • Any Ideas ???

    Ok figured it out.
  • After uninstalling the trial version.....
  • Go to a the following directory.........(Its a hidded directory and file)
  • C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\IBM\LUM
  • Delete the file named nodelock present in that directory.
  • Start installing the Licenced version.
  • TIP : If your reading this after installing the licenced version and finding it not working.....Copy that nodelock file from your colleagues machine and try it........ It worked for my other colleage


  • Must be a bug or something with the Installer/UnInstaller -- maybe they forgot to programme it to remove the file
