  •  If Nintex Forms is not on a version later than 1.9.0.0 (2010) or 2.7.0.0 (2013), the license may not be compatible. To update to a later version:

 

  1. Import a Standard (.nlf) license into your SharePoint environment. For more information, see Import and export licenses.
  2. Update Nintex Workflow and Forms
  3. After the upgrade has completed, import the the previous license again.

 

Note: To obtain a Standard Nintex Forms license, email sales@nintex.com for a trial license file.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This issue results from a change in the Nintex license file schema related to Enterprise licensing and will only be encountered when upgrading from Nintex Forms for SharePoint 2010 version 1.9.0.0 or older, or Nintex Forms for SharePoint 2013 version 2.7.0.0 or older. Once this process has been completed, and the environment is on a build newer than 1.9.0.0 or 2.7.0.0, this process will not need to be repeated on future updates to Nintex Forms.
