Under Mac 10.8.5 , Licensing works fine for local users, but it fail for Open Directory Users.

specifically I'm trying to launch Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.

none of my workstations are connected

it worked just fine under Leopard and Snow Leopard.

running disk utilities repair permissions did not help.

running the License Repair tool from adobe did not help.

deleting the FLEXnet Publisher

and Preferences/FLEXnet Publisher

and the

Preferences/FLEXnet Publisher/FLEXnet did not help

all of my open directory users are group 1028

i have

chgrp -R 1028 /Library/Application Support/Adobe/

chgrp -R 1028 /Applications/Adobe*

chmod 775 /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Elements Organizer/11.0/

chmod 775 /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD/cache

chmod 775 /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe PCD

chmod 775 /Library/Application Support/Adobe/SLStore/

chmod 777 /Library/Application Support/Adobe/Premiere Elements/11.0/AMTInfo.txt

many of the files in these directories have permissions 664.

several of the files that are frequently accesses were already 664 before i looked at them.

i have over 80 user workstations.

Mountain Lion OSX 10.8.5

MacPro workstations 2 3.06 GHz 6-core intel Xeon

12 Gigs of Ram

Note i also have Adobe Premiere 11.0 installed on the workstations.

Adobe Premiere 11.0 works fine after all the ownership and permission issues are solved.
