Problem
Trial licenses not installing.
Example scenario:
Unable to install the trial licenses.
- While the Install License page will say "1 license file found and installed successfully", the date on the License Status page is not refreshing.
- Page still shows "Application Control Solution 100" status as "10/14/2010 Expired". I have tried this multiple times, even tried rebooting the server to no avail.
Background
- Tried installing the 30 day extension trial license provided with AUP Expiration date of 11 2010
- Previously installed a similar license with AUP Expiration 10 2010

- Note: There is also included with SMP 7 a license removal utility which may be easier than the MMC. It is located in the \Notification Server\Bin\Tools folder and is called appropriately "RemoveLicense.exe". Just run that and it will show all licenses installed and allow the removal of any of them one by one or multiple at one time.
- http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/removing-hp-trial-license-altiris - (http://www.symantec.com/connect/blogs/removing-hp-trial-license-altiris \-) Via Certificates MMC snap-in, I was able to remove the old Arellia trial license that was preventing me to install the new one from within the Altiris Console. I was then able to successfully re-install the extended trial license that expires on November 26.
