[Mamadou DIOP]

I have just noticed that the entire conversation isn't on the right developer group.

You must keep "douba...@googlegroups.com" in CC

Your machine will not be able to run the product. Even if tensorflow was bypassed it would run extremely slowly as there  is no avx2. AVX2 is an extremely important feature for OpenViNO and our computer vision library. 

Our computer vision library (https://github.com/DoubangoTelecom/compv) can work without avx2 but the product would be optimal. For OpenVINO I'm sure they would require it.

Your CPU (https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/products/sku/64584/intel-xeon-processor-e52660-20m-cache-2-20-ghz-8-00-gts-intel-qpi/specifications.html) is 12+ years old and was discontinued in 2015 (9years ago).

We do not require a license in order to run and test the product on a machine. The logic is to run the product and test it before activating a license on a machine.

Yes, my CPU is Intel® Xeon® Processor E5-2660 20M Cache, 2.20 GHz, 8.00 GT/s Intel® QPI
And it does not support AVX2.

Does that mean that my machine is unable to run Ultimate ALPR, unless I upgrade the CPU?

Unfortunately, I activated the license on this machine, and if there are no other ways to make this work, then that would have been a huge waste for us...

Do you have any suggestions on what to do?

Hi,

What kind of CPU are you using? It's probably very old (more than 12 years) or a mobile CPU.

Your logs show that your CPU do not have AVX2 features, that's what it's crashing. Tensorflow requires that feature

Subject: [Doubango] Error when running example file

Hello, i managed to correctly build the python sdk, but met another problem along the way. When running run:windows_x64.bat Python stops working.

I tried reinstalling Python, but the same error occurred.

Do you know what might cause this problem here?

It seems to be an issue with ultimateALPR-SDK.dll and something to to with memory?

The terminal prints are:

Additional note: when someone purchase a license we send a mail with this:

"As explained at https://www.doubango.org/pricing.html, the license cannot be revoked, transferred or shared. So, make sure to activate the license for the right machine. If you activate the license for your dev machine you'll NOT be able to transfer it to your prod machine."

This is to remind you that the license is not transferable and make sure everything is OK before activating it on a machine.

Hello again,

Thank you for your reply. 

Our server doesn't support any newer CPU's, so we are considering transitioning to newer hardware that meets your requirements. 

Unfortunately, that means that the now activated license will now be rendered useless for us. 

As a small company, investing in another license at this time poses a significant financial strain, but I am certain we will be continuing using Ultimate ALPR in our future projects. 

I know it's asking a lot, but is there really no way for us to get a second chance at activation on our new, updated development server?

Thank you for your help thus far, and for your consideration.

Sincerely

Patrik Gillebo Olsen
