ALP Using ALP licenses
Per-site (local) license 

First you need to request the license. To do it open the ALPFrame viewer and go to Request/apply license page. 

There are two links on the page. The first leads you to the page that will generate a license request. And the second will import the generated license. 

You need to do the following:

  1. Go to the first page and generate a license request file. Enter the e-mail address used in your order and the password we've sent to you. Attach the generated file to a mail message and send it to sales@newobjects.com. We will respond to your request with the updated license file (with the same name). 
  2. The response will include an attachment with the same file name which will contain the generated license. You need to go to the other page (import a license file) and import it. 

If you have more licenses and more machines to care for - you can attach all the license request files in one single message. There is no need to set any subject or text in the message body - the messages are processed automatically.

Developer license

Developer licenses are intended for developers and software distributors who want to distribute their own products with ALP. Thus the developers need to pay only once and then distribute their ALP based applications without requiring the end-user to pay for ALP license or even know that ALP backs up their applications. There are many deployment techniques, but developer licenses are applied in one single manner:

You will receive a license data and a sample alp.site file containing your license. You will need to put the license data (or the sample alp.site file) in each ALP virtual site. The ALP applications are separated completely by the alp.site files - these files define the borders of the virtual site and ASP applications. So the ALP application is all the files and directories under the directory containing the alp.site file. Therefore the license travels always with the application and no matter how the deployment is done - using installation or on autorun CD the license will be used with your application.

In most cases the sample alp.site file will be enough and you can just put it into the root directory of each application you are going to distribute/use. In some rare cases you may need to specify additional options in the alp.site file - not related to the licensing - such as custom plug-ins and so on. In such situation you need to include the CERTIFICATION section containing your license as subsection of the SITE section of the alp.site file. If you have questions - please ask.
