Guest

Hi,

i get an error in the application log:

Event Type: Error
Event Source: LicenseService
Event Category: None
Event ID: 202
Date: 12.12.2005
Time: 05:43:15
User: N/A
Computer: server1
Description:
The product IIS 5.0 is out of licenses. Use License Manager from the
Administrative Tools folder for more information on which users are out of
compliance and how many licenses should be purchased.

The server1 is our license server for terminal services,exchange 2000 (and
has licenses for exchange 5.5 which where migratet to 2000).
Why do i need licenses for IIS 5.0 ?
I am looking in the licensing under product view i can see
IIS-> 4 licenses per seat allocated.

per server reached 0
We are using outlook web access.

I get another error in the system log:

The first EventID (202) is about server CALs.
The Licensing Logging Service is known to report incorrect
information and is by default disabled in Windows 2003 SP1.
First, check how many server CALs you have (you need one for every
client). Then either update the information in License Manager,
entering the number of licenses per seat which you own, or disable
the Licensing Logging Service altogether.

The second EventID (17) is more serious. You will have to do what
is adviced in the descriptin of the event, i.e. reactivate the TS
Licensing Server.

i am using windows 2000.
I don`t get why i should be out of license for IIS.
In the property`s tab for the iis license i see 4 users and the laste date
when the license was used is in september 2003.Can i revoke them?
All other licenses are fine.
I have more than enough server cals.
How do i reativate the ts license.

Did you read the 2 KB articles I referred to? They explain, as I
did, that the Licensing manager often is incorrect.
So either follow KB 153140 to re-enter your server CALs, or
disable the Licensing Logging Service.

Reactivating the TS:
