    Hi,

    I meant this license https://support.smartbear.com/readyapi/docs/general-info/licensing/id-based/index.html

    There are two types of float licenses: "file based" and "ID-based". I am currently working with "ID-based".

    In the latest version of docker container https: //hub.docker.com/r/smartbear/ready-api-soapui-testrunner/ which is released today ,there is a change in the EntryPoint.sh script that will allow you to work with this new license. However, the application itself in the docker continues to report the problem after launch.

    I did a workeround in which I forbade the application to look in the  linux folder "/proc" ,  thanks to which the application does not know that it runs in docker and everything finally works.

Hey @tomasbocinec,

 

Thanks for sending the workaround.

Unfortunately it does not work yet.
I used the solution into a before-script of my gitlab-ci job/pipeline and it does not give an error on your line.
Maybe it's just a matter of tweaking it a little bit. I will try to figure it out cause I think you pointed me to the right direction.
I will leave a message here when I succeed.

 

Thanks again,

threehook
