    Hi There,

    We have a user who has Office 2010 installed around a year. And he reported his office pops up window to ask activate this Monday. I checked the kms server setting and all good. Tried to run cscript ospp.vbs /act and no luck. When I ran the /dstatus, it showed volume license key is ott_grace. Any way to fix it?

    Regards,

    It's not a Retail license for Windows. (that's expected, so is fine)

    This KMShost is configured and activated as KMShost for Office2013, current_count is 10 (maximum) and that's fine. This KMShost can, and is, issuing activations for Office2013.

    The above is your "active" Windows KMShost detail. It shows it's licensed and current_count=50 (the maximum). The license type is WS2012R2, so your KMShost is correctly configured and activated and is issuing activations for all versions of Windows Clients and Servers. This is all fine.

    This Retail license isn't in use so the lines above are irrelevant.

    Ok, so your KMShost is perfectly configured and healthy, it's issuing activations for Windows KMSclients, and also for Office2013 KMSclients.

    Your KMShost is *NOT* configured at all, for Office2010-KMShost. This is why your Office2010 KMSclients are not being activated by this KMShost.

    KMShost for Office2013 does *NOT* issue activations for Office2010.
    KMShost for Office2010 does *NOT* issue activations for Office2013.

    You can (and should) install the Office2010 KMShost VL pack on this KMShost, install the Office2010 KMShost product key and then activate that. This will leave you with a fully configured KMShost capable of issuing activations for all VL products.

    Here are some links:

    (background information)
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/22510.volume-activation-kms-mak-adba-avma.aspx

    (instructions. jump to the paragraph titled: To activate an Office 2010 KMS host on Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2)
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624357(v=office.14)#section2

    (download and install and activate the KMShost VL pack):
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=25095

    [I have all 3 KMShost roles/packs running on several WS2008R2 hosts, it all works fine.]

    Note that some people have reported issues when install KMShost "out of order",
    i.e. Win-KMS -> Off2013-KMS -> Off2010-KMS.
    I've never installed in that "out of order" sequence myself.
    At worst, you might need to remove the Office2013 KMShost VL pack, then install Off2010 KMShost VL pack, then reinstall Off2013 KMShost VL pack. After all this, your Off2010 KMSclients will be able to contact your correctly configured KMShost.

    Monitor the current_count and the request_counters on your KMShost (use the slmgr.vbs script).
    You should see the counters increment.
    Note that Office KMShost functionality requires a minimum of 5 KMSclients of that particular client_type before activations will be issued. If you don't have enough Office2010 KMSclients, this might be an issue for you ?

    Tried to run cscript ospp.vbs /act and no luck. When I ran the /dstatus, it showed volume license key is ott_grace. Any way to fix it?

    OOT_GRACE means that Software Protection Service has detected Hardware changes or similar, and re-activation with the KMShost is now required.

    What does "tried and no luck" mean?
    What was the result? Was there an error message or code which resulted ?
    What is in event logs on both KMSclient and also on KMShost ?

    checked with user, there is no changes of his laptop's hardware. I tried to run the cscript ospp.vbs /sethst x.x.x.x first (we have two KMS servers), showed successfully and then run cscript ospp.vbs /act, still got same error code. also ran the command nslookup -type=srv _vlmcs._tcp and result matches the system log. Also check the network security guys and no block the port 1588 which we used for KMS. Is there any way to fix the problem without re-install the office/re-image the system?

    slui.exe 0x2a 0xC004F074

    Code: 0xC004F074

    Description:
    The Software Licensing Service reported that the product could not be activated. No Key Management Service (KMS) could be contacted. Please see the Application Event Log for additional information.

    By default, KMShost listen on TCP:1688, not TCP:1588
    If you have actually configured your KMShost to listen on a non-default TCP port, you would need to configure all KMSclients to communicate on that non-default TCP port: cscript ospp.vbs /setprt:1588

    The error you're receiving suggests that this KMSclient cannot establish a useful connection to a KMShost with the correct KMShost product-key installed. Check the event logs on the client to confirm if a KMShost is being contacted, and check that KMShost event log to confirm the client request was received at the KMShost, and, the response generated by the KMShost to that KMSclient.

    just did a quick test. install office 2010 on the spare desktop, check the KMS server log, it shows:

    An activation request has been processed.

    Info:

    0xC004F042,5,NRX300359.CanEast.IBIGROUP.com,2485e941-58d5-4eb3-acd4-37ee3f104372,2014/12/04 21:03,0,2,42875,5dc7bf61-5ec9-4996-9ccb-df806a2d0efe

    but on the computer side, still show activation required.

    but on the computer side, still show activation required.

    execute: slui 0x2a 0xC004F042

    Code: 0xC004F042

    Description:
    The Software Licensing Service determined that the specified Key Management Service (KMS) cannot be used.

    Basically, this means that the KMSclient computer is successfully discovering and contacting your KMShost, but your KMShost is returning a response "I am not setup to activate the product you are requesting".
    The KMSclient is then showing "I contacted a KMShost but it doesn't offer activation for the product I need to activate".

    Have you ever setup your KMShost to issue activations for Office2010 products (this includes Office + Visio + Project)?

    If so, your KMshost appears to no longer offer that activation service. (has your KMShost been changed?)

    You can check the current configuration and status of your KMShost, by checking on the KMShost:

    execute [elevated]: cscript slmgr.vbs /dlv all > c:\kmsout.txt

    This will query your KMshost for all possible (Windows and Office) license types and the status of each, and output the result to the text file.

    If you wish, you can post the results here for us to assist you with analysis.

    (the output does not include your private product keys)

    This KMShost is configured and activated as KMShost for Office2013, current_count is 10 (maximum) and that's fine. This KMShost can, and is, issuing activations for Office2013.

    The above is your "active" Windows KMShost detail. It shows it's licensed and current_count=50 (the maximum). The license type is WS2012R2, so your KMShost is correctly configured and activated and is issuing activations for all versions of Windows Clients and Servers. This is all fine.

     This license is not in use.
     License Status: Unlicensed

    This Retail license isn't in use so the lines above are irrelevant.

    Ok, so your KMShost is perfectly configured and healthy, it's issuing activations for Windows KMSclients, and also for Office2013 KMSclients.

    Your KMShost is *NOT* configured at all, for Office2010-KMShost. This is why your Office2010 KMSclients are not being activated by this KMShost.

    KMShost for Office2013 does *NOT* issue activations for Office2010.
    KMShost for Office2010 does *NOT* issue activations for Office2013.

    You can (and should) install the Office2010 KMShost VL pack on this KMShost, install the Office2010 KMShost product key and then activate that. This will leave you with a fully configured KMShost capable of issuing activations for all VL products.

    Here are some links:

    (background information)
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/22510.volume-activation-kms-mak-adba-avma.aspx

    (instructions. jump to the paragraph titled: To activate an Office 2010 KMS host on Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2)
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee624357(v=office.14)#section2

    (download and install and activate the KMShost VL pack):
    http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=25095

    [I have all 3 KMShost roles/packs running on several WS2008R2 hosts, it all works fine.]

    Note that some people have reported issues when install KMShost "out of order",
    i.e. Win-KMS -> Off2013-KMS -> Off2010-KMS.
    I've never installed in that "out of order" sequence myself.
    At worst, you might need to remove the Office2013 KMShost VL pack, then install Off2010 KMShost VL pack, then reinstall Off2013 KMShost VL pack. After all this, your Off2010 KMSclients will be able to contact your correctly configured KMShost.

    Monitor the current_count and the request_counters on your KMShost (use the slmgr.vbs script).
    You should see the counters increment.
    Note that Office KMShost functionality requires a minimum of 5 KMSclients of that particular client_type before activations will be issued. If you don't have enough Office2010 KMSclients, this might be an issue for you ?
