CAUSE ===== One possible cause for this error is that License Manager has not been set up to grant enough connections to meet the client's demands. In this case, go into the Control Panel's Licensing tool and set up License Manager with the appropriate number of client licenses per seat or per server. Another possible cause of this error message is that License Manager has a corrupted or incorrect purchase history record.
