Terminal Services Licensing Fails

[Jeff Sullivan]

Our terminal services licensing is failing. We get the
following errors in the log:

TermServLicensing ID 44:

General database error occurred, Can't initialize ESE
instance - error -514 JET_errBadLogVersion, Version of log
file is not compatible with Jet version.
..

Followed by:

Service Control Manager ID 7024

The Terminal Services Licensing service terminated with
service-specific error 31.

All current clients seem OK, but new licenses are not
issued.

Any thoughts?

It sounds as if your licensing database has been corrupted. Can
you restore from the backup in the %windir%\system32\lserver
directory?
You could also try to reinstall the latest SP, which just *might*
help if it is only a version mismatch.

If none of this helps, you might have to uninstall and reinstall
the LS, but that also means phoning the Clearinghouse to get your
licenses re-issued.
