Resolving Flex 3 “Beta Expired” Error… February 5, 2008
Posted by suketuvyas in : General, Flex 3 , trackbackProblem:
Today morning I have open my flex builder IDE and created a new project. New project creation was giving strange Error “Beta Expired”. My Flex builder status bar was showing “Flex Builder 3 will expire in 39 Days” this seems to be a strange behavior…
Solution:
I found out that I was using Flex builder Beta 2 and adobe has set some date for Flex beta 2 SDK Expiry. (This means Your Flex SDK has expired not Flex builder… ‘Flex Builder 3 will expire in 39 Days’ as mention above…)
To solve this problem I have downloaded new Flex 3 Beta 3 SDK and added to flex builder and compiling my projects with Beta 3 SDK
Now, it works fine… Hope this helps to some one facing same problem.

hi
i figured it out not a problem.
there was one option ” configure sdks ” , done with it

What about visualization? I mean the charting. The watermarks appear.
@Kumar: You need a serial key for the flex charting components. one you put the serial key then watermark will not appear.
it’s simple to search sdks\3.0.0\lib\license.jar, decompile flex/license/License.class, remove all checks, and have something such follow:
package flex.license;
public class License {
….
public boolean isBeta() {
return false;
}
public Calendar getExpirationDate() {
final Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
c.add(Calendar.YEAR, 100);
return c;
}
public boolean isBetaExpired() {
return false;
}
public boolean isChartingBetaExpired() {
return false;
}
public boolean isChartingValid() {
return true;
}
public boolean isCompilerValid() {
return true;
}
…
compile and put it back to license.jar
Thanks a lot..I was facing this problem for a while and today happened to look at your post here.
Thanks..
