Unable to apply new Drone license key

Hi there,

I tried to apply a new license key into a running drone instance on docker (drone:2.15).

Like shown in the faqs and docs, I tried to apply the license with the environment variable directly and a mountend config file. Both ways failed with the same message:

2022-12-02T09:37:07Z fatal error=Malformed License msg=main: invalid or expired license

Tried with env var:

version: "3.5"

configs:
  drone.key:
  external: true

services:
  server:
    image: drone/drone:2.15.0
    environment:
      # ...
      DRONE_LICENSE: |
        -----BEGIN LICENSE KEY-----
        12345
        67890
        abcd
        efgh
        -----END LICENSE KEY------

tried with docker config:

version: "3.5"

configs:
  drone.key:
  external: true

services:
  server:
    image: drone/drone:2.15.0
    environment:
      # ...
      DRONE_LICENSE: "/drone.key"
    configs:
      - drone.key

Hello @OCram85

You say this is a new license key, so you had a working service previously?

Since you are a customer, have you tried reaching out to your Harness support rep?
