I believe that you need to have a license if you are using ready api. Please check the documentation for details.

Hi Rao, you're right that a license is required to run the Ready!API GUI application.
However, my question is about deploying/running a war file created from SoapUI/Ready!API - as you can see from my post, this works well when running on Windows, but fails when running on a headless Linux server. So I'm hoping to get some insight from SmartBear - is it a bug that it's working on Windows or is it a bug that it's not working headless?

A bit more trial and error indicates that:
- A war file generated by Ready!API requires a license to be used
- This means that it's a bug when I can use the war file without a license on Windows
- It also means that giving a HeadlessException on Linux is ridiculous, when the problem is a missing license
- A war file generated by the open source version of SoapUI does NOT require a license to be used
- Learning point: Even if using (a licensed) Ready!API to design tests and virts, you should use SoapUI Open Source to generate the war - that way making it possible to use the war without licensing restrictions
It would be good if someone from SmartBear could clarify/comment/confirm the above observations.
