When you launch the installation program, you are prompted enter product information about the OpenEdge license you have purchased from Progress. This information is captured in the License Addendum file, which contains the serial numbers and control codes for each of the OpenEdge products and components included in your license.

Your License Addendum file is accessible from the Progress Software Download Center. Before you run the installer, you must download this file, as explained in Obtain a License Addendum file.

When you run the installation program, you have two options for entering the license details contained in this file:

  • Load the License Addendum file (recommended).
  • For each OpenEdge product that you want to install, enter the corresponding serial number and control code that is listed in the License Addendum file.
