Problem with Metabolizer

Dear all,


I have just downloaded and installed Jchem in order to test the metabolizer plugin.


I have downloaded an evaluation licence (discovery Toolkit) but the licence for metabolizer seems to be not included.


Is there any specific evaluation licence for this module?


Am I doing anything wrong?


Thanks!

This is the first part of the error message


chemaxon.metabolizer.MetabolizerException: chemaxon.license.LicenseException: No valid license has been found.

Since our biotransformation library (the knowledge base) is not yet ready (though we are working on it), Metabolizer has been moved back to "preview" state. It can be evaluated with our demo example. However, you can use it with your own biotransfromation library, if you create one. If you need an evaluation license despite these current drawbacks, my colleagues can send one.

I am not sure if I could handl it, so I would prefer to wait until the biotransformation library is ready and I will try an evaluation licence if available.


Thanks!

I repeated the same experience and frustration as noted by aganza - it would be helpful to add a note to the Metabolizer download explaining the limitations of the evaluation copy, and point the potential user directly to the demo example.

I am sorry if it was not clear enough, that the biotransfrmation library is not available yet as a fully functional library. We have renamed Metabolizer on the desktop to Metabolizer Preview and we will improve the description on the download page as you suggested.
