Diagbox 7.01 "Error during installation of Lexia 3"

Post by toros550 »

Hi,

I have recently purchased a Lexia 3 Diagnostic Kit. Installation on my laptop running Windows XP SP3 works fine, but when trying to activate the software I get the dreaded "Error during installation of Lexia 3, please re-activate to use the software" error. I was hoping someone might have come across this error before and wanted to seek some advice on how to proceed.

Although diagbox/lexia/PP2000 requires an active network connection (and allow any firewall requests) don't let it connect to the internet or, as I think you've discovered it phones home to check it's valid and if not the PSA servers will deactivate the license.

So unless you made a copy of the license file before it was de-activated, you'll have to do a clean uninstall, then reinstall the software again.

Make sure you have all the correct software on ie I just changed laptop and forgot to put java on the system which caused a error asking me to reload the diagbox software.
