(Get the code!)
I have a theory on this. The DB defines license as varchar(32). I expect I'm returning something longer than 32 characters, in which case the comparison fails each time.
Possible solutions. I could shorten my MD5, but this leads to possible collisions between clients.
Increase the length of the license field in the display table.
I could hash on something different to shorten the MD5 by implication.
However, perhaps xmds should enforce this limit somehow.
