There is a mechanism of license reactivation available and, by default, it is enabled. There will be a set of attempts to reactivate a license automatically that is about to expire (7 days, 1 day, 1 hour and 10 minutes before expiration). All the attempts and their status will be recorded in the log files.

If you do not wish the license to be auto-reactivated upon its expiration, you can disable AppServer parameters#AutoLicenseReactivation option.

1. Before making any changes, it is recommended to stop AppServer (Main AppServer commands#stopAppServerWindowsLinux2.StopAppServer). 

2. Locate the AppServerX.xml configuration file in the WebSpellChecker installation folder on your server. The default path to the AppServerX.xml file is  <WebSpellChecker_Installation_Path>/AppServer/AppServerX.xml

3. Scroll down to the section with parameters responsible for licensing: <License>...</License>.

4. For AutoLicenseReactivation parameter change the default value from true to false, to disable the license reactivation attempts.

AppServerX.xml
<AutoLicenseReactivation>false</AutoLicenseReactivation>

5. As soon as the modifications are completed, start AppServer for the changes to take effect.

Since the auto-reactivation will be disabled, you are responsible for ensuring timely activation of the license manually. Otherwise, the spell and grammar check functionality stops working.
