Hello,
we're running a Sharepoint Foundation Server 2010 RTM and recently installed Microsoft Search Server 2010 Express on the same machine. Since then we get the following error reported in central admin:
Title
Trial period for this product is about to expire.
Severity
0 - Rule Execution Failure

Explanation Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.LicensingException: The licensing information not available

Remedy Navigate to the 'Convert farm license type' page and enter a non-trial license key to convert your farm from trial to fully licensed. For more information about this rule, see "http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=142627".

... I was searching quite a lot of time and found out there was a similar problem in the beta version, but in beta this error was unimportant and could be ignored. is this also true for the rtm version? sounds weird ...
fyi:
* foundadion and search server are both RTM - no different versions installed
* application pool user is member of WSS_ADMIN_WPG and WSS_WPG wich have read permission on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office Server\14.0
* it is not possible to enter a new license key using 'convert farm license type' (anyway - why should I? wich product key -> foundation server 2010 is free ...?!)
... I've read some posts at miscellaneous forums where people seem to have the same problem as I do but without any resolutions ... I absolutely don't have any plan how to fix this weird problem ... is this a problem? maybe it's only a bug that is a pain
in the neck?
thanks in advance!
bg,
J
