Deploy Mendix app on Deocker

0
Hi I’m a Siemens employee. Quick question. I’d like to deploy the app on docker container with a Demo License.  I’m using the link https://newnode.mendix.com/index.html in order to request a Demo license, but during the wizard, it prompted to enter the Server ID for two environments. How to generate the Server ID? I’m planning to deploy the app on a Linux docker.   Cheers Andrea

My knowledge on this topic is a bit rusty. But this should be it:

 

License activation is briefly documented at https://github.com/mendix/cf-mendix-buildpack#license-activation

For the activation you need 2 strings:

  1. LICENSE_ID is a random uuid
  2. LICENSE_KEY is a very long base64 encoded JSON generated by Mendix (Support)

 

The server ID you are referring to is the hash value of $LICENSE_ID ; I’m not sure if I’m allowed to disclose exactly how this Server ID is computed. The formula is actually very easy to derive. According to docs https://docs.mendix.com/developerportal/deploy/licensing-apps-outside-mxcloud#3-6-docker it’s better to raise a ticket with Mendix support so that they can generate both the LICENSE_ID and LICENSE_KEY for you.

 

An alternative (hardcore) way to get a hold of server id is:

 

The alternative method is all pure public knowledge.
