Version: 3.5.7 Reporter: Senad Milavic —
Experienced problem in 3.5.6, tried updating to 3.5.7, but it doesn’t solve issue. I just got a message in EE control panel saying that software licence key has invalid signature and that I need to add the key. (worked without any problems for a year , until now). I download a new key from my purchase page and upload it to EE control panel, but EE doesn’t want to accept it. Every time I try to add the license.key file, EE gives me error message saying: “License Invalid The license file provided has an invalid signature.”

Hi Senad,
It sounds like you may have some corrupt files on your server. I would try re-uploading the
Seth Barbersystem/eefolder then try adding your license key.06th June, 2017 at 11:44am
Hi Seth,
Thanks for your comment. I already uploaded system/ee folder while updating EE from 3.5.6 to 3.5.7 (and did the update to solve this issue), and it didn’t solve it. But now, I copied system/ee to the server again and still the same problem. Every time I try to add license.key file in EE control panel, it says that license file has invalid signature. And I only see 1 license key I can download under my purchase info.

Hi Sednad,
Can you email a copy of your license file to team@ellislab.com so our support team can take a look at it?

Hi Seth, For some reason, when I log in to CP today, the message about unregistered software is gone and my license key is displayed in control panel. Didn’t work entire day yesterday, but today the issue is gone by itself!? Maybe the issue was with authentication servers, not with EE installation? If you still think I should send the license key file to support team, I can do so, but this strange “self fix” might indicate that issue was not in the local install, or license key file it self?

Hi Sednad,
It sounds like the problem was environmental and not with the key itself. Keep an eye on it and if it happens again let us know.
