License server error (-197)

Hello

Im having problems getting Vray up and running on Revit 2021.

What I`ve tried:

Normal install without uninstalling previous V-ray version. NO SUCCESS

Uninstalled everything, removed all files from common files folder etc. NO SUCCESS

Installed License server first, then V-ray. NO SUCCESS


I constantly get this error while installing:

See attached photo 1





Tried debug and ignore


When finished installation and pressing Enable V-Ray I get this error message:


See attached photo 2



Then this window opens:


See attached photo 3



Any ideas?

Hello
It looks like you installed V-Ray 5 for Revit, but you have a license of V-Ray Next for Revit, which means that you are only able to work with V-Ray Next for Revit builds. Please try to follow the below instructions in order to uninstall all previous versions and download
and install V-Ray Next for Revit.

Make sure to download and install V-Ray Online license server 5.5.3 from the below link:
https://download.chaosgroup.com/?platform=47&product=48
Please open the web page "localhost:30304" and you Enable Online licensing with your account and your password.
Then please press the "F5" on your keyboard to refresh your web page, and please confirm if you are able to see your V-Ray for Revit license?
If you can see your V-Ray for Revit license there, please start Revit and start using V-Ray.
Anyway, if any errors appear, please send us screenshots of it. You might also write us at support@chaosgroup.com so we can help you further.

Aha Didn`t realize it was different.. I renewed my subscription last month. Is there an upgrade solution or do I need to pay full for this version?
