Hi,
Got the following message entitled "AMT Sybsystem Failure."
"The licensing subsystem has failed catastrophically. You must reinstall or call customer support."
Okay. That's a horrible message. Whoever wrote it should be fired. What a moron. How about identifying the software involved, first?
So, I googled and found it's a CS3 error. Who knew? I didn't even have any CS3 applications open. Again, can the idiot who wrote that error message.
Then, I don't have any support options. So, here I am. I noted a thread about this message in the Mac forum, but didn't post there because I'm on Windows. I looked at this KB article, but none of it pertains to me:
http://kb.adobe.com/selfservice/viewContent.do?externalId=kb402004&sli ceId=2
According to the KB article, "This issue has several possible causes:"
* You moved the application out of the folder to which it was installed.
--No. I did not do that.
* You ran a restore on your system (Windows XP)
--No. Not that, either.
* You don't have user access to a necessary component of the application due to permissions restrictions or configuration of the system or application
--No. I have permissions. Never got the error before today. My permissions are the same as they have always been. Not running any CS3 apps at the time of the error, anyway.
* The FLEXnet Licensing Service has been stopped and is disabled (Windows)
--No. It is running and was when I got the error.
* You do not have permission to access the contents of the Flexnet Publisher folder (Mac OS)
--No. I'm using Windows XP SP3.
Finally, yes, I have plenty of hard drive space, minimum RAM--but enough (2GB)--and until today, my license of Adobe CS3 has been running just fine.
Any ideas on how to deal with this? (Aside from firing the idiot who wrote the error message.)
Cheers,
Sean
