Nice find...though doesn't load for me...guess because it's beta...if only everything was web based...no more crap to deploy!

 

It works like an absolute champ on my system (Firefox 49.0.2 on Ubuntu 14.04).

Sketchup has always been a pain in the 'tux on Linux but Sketchup in a browser is fantastic.

If you have an old graphics card it doesn't work either. I tried it on a school PC that has a Radeon HD 6450 and the website says "Sorry. We encountered a problem with your web browser's WebGL support".

 

On my home PC with a GTX 1080 it works perfectly. :)

@sparkeh. You might want to use this MST instead of the one above if you downloaded SketchUp today. :)

I wonder if anyone can help me?

 

I am using the MST's from post #41 with Sketchup 2016. It works perfectly on our x64 machines but I still get the Pro Trial on our x86 machines?

 

I'm using the same command for both versions with the file paths adjusted to the different msi, mst's and license file. The license file appears to get copied to C:\ProgramData\SketchUp\SketchUp 2016 and it contains '##NonCommercialUse,NoTrial'

 

Any ideas?

I think I have found what's wrong with the x86 MST. Could you try the new version attached below please? :)

 

Thanks for the new MST but unfortunately it hasn't fixed my issue :-(

I assume you are using the v16.1.1450 MSI rather than v16.0.19911? :confused:

 

Are you installing SketchUp Make 2016 on a computer that already has an older version of SketchUp?

 

Is the 32-bit MSI being installed on a 32-bit or 64-bit version of Windows?

 

Here's another MST for you to try. Third time lucky hopefully? :)

It still doesn't appear to be working

 

So it's a fresh machine with no previous Sketchup installed.

 

I am extracting the msi from SketchUpPro-2016-1-1450-80430-en-x86.exe using 7-Zip.

 

Placing the msi, mst and license file in the same folder.

 

Using this command to install... msiexec /i \\servername\packages$\MSI\SketchUp2016\32\SketchUp2016-x86.msi TRANSFORMS=\\servername\packages$\MSI\SketchUp2016\32\SketchUp2016-x86.mst /qb!

And the 32-bit MSI is being installed on a 32-bit machine. I tried installing the 32-bit MSI on a 64-bit machine and it has the same problem. 64-bit MSI on 64-bit machine works fine.

Could you log the installation and then attach it?

 

msiexec /i "\\servername\packages$\MSI\SketchUp2016\32\SketchUp2016-x86.msi" TRANSFORMS="\\servername\packages$\MSI\SketchUp2016\32\SketchUp2016-x86.mst" /L*V "%TEMP%\SketchUp2016-x86.log" /qb!

Hopefully the logs are attached. Thanks for your help on this!

I really appreciate the help @Arthur but it still doesn't appear to be working.

 

Is there something really obvious that I've missed? as I assume others have used the 32-bit msi and mst with success?

 

Did the logs point to any reason in particular as to why it doesn't work?

 

 

 

Just to add I wanted to eliminate it being our network machines so I installed Windows 7 Pro x86 on a VM. I copied all the files to the C Drive and installed in it via command line and I still get the Pro Trial after install.

There wasn't anything obvious in the log that stuck out. It's really strange since no one else has ever had any issues with the MSTs.

What do you use to deploy the MSI & MST?

 

Do you have any GPPs that might be overwriting the SketchUp.lic file?

We use Burconix Network Management Tools which essentially just runs the install command like you would from the command line itself (msiexec /i \\servername\.... etc). I have also tried installing it manually from the command line with the same results.

 

Nothing that is any different from our 64-bit machines that work fine. The Licence file gets copied to ProgramData\SketchUp\SketchUp 2016\SketchUp.lic and contains '##NonCommercialUse,NoTrial'. Its like Sketchup can't see its there.

It sounds like it might be a job for Process Monitor. This should tell you why SketchUp isn't reading the license file.

@Arthur Thanks for all your help with getting this resolved

 

I have finally got this to work and this is what I did...

 

I installed Sketchup manually on a clean machine. It entered its 30 day free trial like it had always done previously. I changed the date on the machine forward 31 days to see if it would make any changes to the license file that was already present and correct. After I changed the date Sketchup finished it's 30 day trial but didn't enter into the free Sketchup Make mode and just locked down Sketchup asking for a license.

 

So I decided to start a fresh from the beginning...

 

I went to the Sketchup website to re download the .exe to extract the msi. I noticed that you can now only download 'Sketchup 2016 Pro' unlike 2017 where you can download 'Sketchup Make 2017'. This got me thinking, maybe you can't download and run Sketchup Make 2016 any more?

 

So I used my best friend Google and found an old installer for version 16.1.1450, extracted the msi and ran the install command with the original mst and license file that Arthur uploaded and it installed successfully.

 

This may seem obvious to most people but I thought I would document it in case others have the same problem in the future.
