My Julia License is not working

I had an update to my Macbook yesterday, which had led to problems in my Julia access. In the Virtual Studio Code, Im not seeing the license details. I tried reinstalling Pumas, however I am stuck at the stage of updating the licence. Im not sure how to add license details. I have the license key which has been activated once.
Please help!
Thanks,
Alice

When I installed Pumas 2.6.1 again and added the license key in the terminal I see the following error

**ERROR:** UndefVarError: `XXXX` not defined

Following is the entire message in the terminal

Also, when I try to search for “START REPL” in VScode I dont see that option.

Please advise.

Dear Alice,

From the looks of it, after you reinstalled, Pumas already picked up the correct license. You seem to have tried to provide the license file again on a normal julia REPL which is not needed.

Can you just restart your session and let us know if everything is working as expected.

Best,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,

Thanks for your response. I think the error was with using the latest version of Julia language. When I selected the prerelease version, it seems to work now.
If I face further issues, I will let you know.

Thanks,
Alice
