Upon Deployment, Serial# is requested.

Hi,
I have successfully deployed an application that uses SQL Toolkit. However, upon a recent change to the application ( nothing involving the toolkit) when I deploy the application, a dialog comes up requesting the serial#.
Can anyone tell me how to fix this problem. I would appreciate any help. As I said, it has previously worked just fine.
Thanks,
Craig Adams

It seems that the application that you'd built hasn't been licensed properly. The Toolkit will happily compile an unlicenced version of the application, and it will do it silently.
In order to invoke the licensing at build-time, you need licenses.licx added to the project with either RedGate.SQLCompare.Engine.Database or RedGate.SQLDataCompare.Engine.ComparisonSession in the content. This should invoke Microsoft's licensing compiler and in turn our own licensing component, which should ask for a serial number.
