I have been trying to open Revit on my computer for the past couple of days and continually getting the license error (-4.132.0) that shuts everything back down. Attached is a capture of the log file as well as the file structure in my ADLM folder. I have tried to open Revit on the other computer in the office with access to it and it opens fine with no errors. Even after closing down the program on that machine and restarting my computer still receiving the same error.
-4 means you're out of licenses, chief. You might verify on the NLM that there are licenses available. Also look into the TIMEOUTALL option in the adskflex.opt file.
I have read many posts about -4 meaning out of licenses. We only have 1 license, and the software is on 2 computers, so I verified that the software would open on the other computer, then closed it (which would release the license, and still I was unable to open Revit on my computer.
Without any change 3 days after the problem started it went away, so I am still unsure of what was the problem or how to solve it if it happens again.
If the first computer closes, it may not be releasing the license. Check the task manager and make sure Revit.exe is not still running. If it is, kill it.
You can always query the license manager to see if licenses are freed up or not.
I see alot of posts about the license manager or NLM, but I do not see this application on my computer. And being that our computers are locked down by IT I do not have an option to install anything.

this is installed on server somewhere in your company
its possible to run the license manger on your computer without the need to install anything and checking the status inquiry
