hi, as you know, I am moving my installation to another hosting provider - please allow me some flexability here. - no I can't logon as it says: Now re-checking your Virtualmin license .. .. a problem was detected : Your serial number is licensed for only 1 servers, but is being used on 3
It is NOT installed on three at all - it is installed on orginal box - and new box until it is working properly. it is probably showing three as the first migration stuffed up big time and had to reload the os please URGENLTY attend this.
thanks !!

Howdy -- that message is purely informational, and doesn't prevent logins.
It's no problem at all to have Virtualmin installed on multiple systems.
If you're unable to log in, you're likely seeing a different problem... possibly an issue with a password.
You may want to verify that you're able to login via SSH using that particular root password. You could also review /var/webmin/miniserv.log for clues as to why root isn't able to login.

Oops, rather than /var/webmin/miniserv.log, I meant to suggest looking at /var/webmin/miniserv.error if you're still having problems logging in.

That warning message isn't at all related to the login problem.
What issue do you have attempting to login on your system? What error do you get?
What shows up in /var/webmin/miniserv.error?
And were you able to verify that you can login as root using that same password?

ok, i probably are not being clear. I can logon - fine. But i get a huge RED box at the top of the screen with:
Now re-checking your Virtualmin license .. .. a problem was detected : Your serial number is licensed for only 1 servers, but is being used on 3.
it won't go away

Aha, okay... yes, that message will indeed occur.
Only the root user can see it. None of the other users of your system can see it.
Also, it'll only appear until a few days after your other server running Virtualmin is shut down (or Virtualmin Pro is removed).
That message is safe to ignore though.
