Working on trying out the market licensing service, and I'm running into a few problems with the sample application.

When I first ran the sample, I got an error saying that the application was not licensed. I linked my account to the simulator in order to get it to get the test response, and now I get an error saying "Application error: NOT_MARKET_MANAGED"

Does this mean that I have to upload the app to the market in order to test to see if it works?

Yes your app has to be on the market and if it already is, you have to have a version code number which is greater or equal than the one already published.

Well foo. Whats the point of having an example application to make sure that you are doing it right if you can't actually run it?Can I put something in the market without putting it up for sale?Any way to create a test server?

well I don't know , but I suppose that if you want to publish on the market, you need to pay the 25$ fee no?
Sephy
Well, I have paid the fee, got all my information inputed, and have everything ready to go on that end, I just don't want to put it up for sale until it's actually ready to sell, with no bugs. As is, I don't have the LVL implemented fully, so I'm pretty sure it will have all kinds of errors.

You'd have thought "Saved Draft" would be just what this is for. Otherwise, you're selling an app which by definition cannot have been fully tested live.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I did, put it in the market but saved instead of published. Got rid of that error at least
