Revit Licence Unavailable - Unable to obtain a network licence

[j.arnott]

Revit Licence Unavailable - Unable to obtain a network licence. No connection to the network licence server could be established error message recieved.

I have Remote desktop'd to the computer in question and have also checked it can connect to the internet, therefore I assume there are no connection issues in terms of accessing the internet / netwrok.

The software is deployed across our network using Altiris, and the computer contains at least 2 or 3 Autodesk products:

• Revit 2014
• Revit 2015
• AutoCAD 2012

Can anyone help shed light on why this error (see attached screenshot) may occur? Especially when the network seems fully operational.

Thank you for your assistance in advance.

Kind regards

did you check flex lm to see if there are licenses available?

[j.arnott]

Hi thanks for the reply.


There are licences available, which is adding the strange twist to the
story

[DarrenP]

all three products can't grab a license?

is this happening on other machines?

[j.arnott]

No just this one computer that I know of. It's a laptop if it's of any
significance.



I actually haven't trued the other products personally as the user only
reported an issue with RAC14



May be that it's a profile rebuild job?

Our IT team have been looking at the issue.

Not sure exactky what theyve done, but this is there response.

====================

Got it working… I have 2014 working, trouble with 2015 and AutoCAD but should have it working soon.

====================

Once I know more, I shall post here for everyone's benefit.
