    Trying to activate FOP2.

    I enter the '/usr/local/fop2/fop2_server --register' command and it asked for my serial code, but getting the below error:

    Could not contact registration server, please try again later. at script/fop2_server.pl line 12737, <> line 1.

    Anyone else had this issue?

      Registration servers are up. You need internet (web) access in order to register fop2. Can you ping www.fop2.com ?

      Best regards,

        Hi Nicolás,

        Yes i can ping www.fop2.com.

        However, still got the same error when trying to activate FOP2.

        This is a new build/restore of a server.

        I managed to activate another server 1 week ago, but this one server is having issues.

        Regards,

          Well, your server cannot access our registration servers via web. Maybe you can ping but you are behind a proxy or something like that for web access? It is hard to tell from here, what happens if you try:

          cd /tmp
          wget http://www.fop2.com

          What do you see on screen?

            I have the same issue: Could not contact registration server, please try again later. at /loader/0x2fd9710/FOP2/License.pm line 631, <> line 1.

            I can ping your fop2.com domain

                Additionally, I inform you that the version was upgraded according to the instructions.
                sudo wget -O - http://download.fop2.com/upgrade_fop2.sh | bash
                The result is the same.
                Will this problem be addressed?

                  I have the same problem. I have tried to activate a purchased plugin many times with upgrade command but the below msg was shown:
                  Could not contact registration servers.
                  meanwhile the ping www.fop2.com is replying and wget www.fop2.com is working well!
                  Is there anyway to solve it?

                    I was finally able to find a solution to this problem. I have an old server that worked correctly on the above commands and connected to the registrar server without an error message. So I removed a file fop2_server from path /usr/local/fop2/ and replaced it on my new server, which had a problem. I took a test, everything worked fine and correctly, and I managed to register my license code. Of course, I suggest that you back up the fop2_server file before copying and replacing it.
                    I also suggest you have the latest FOP2 version on the backup server.
                    hope of success.

                        Hello,
                        the best alternative to avoid getting the fop2_server file moved and replaced and backed up is to try this command:
                        /usr/local/fop2/fop2_server --upgrade --rp=http
                        try that out before trying the fix alizahedi sent (thanks for his message!)
                        Best Regards
