The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Windows Media Rights Manager 1.0
This article was previously published under Q259326 SYMPTOMS
On the Windows Media Rights Manager client registration Web page, when you register for or renew a license, you may receive the following error message:
You just received a license that is already expired. Maybe your clock is set wrong. Check and try again.
CAUSE
This error message can occur if the date or time set on the client computer is ahead of the license's expiration date that the server has created.
RESOLUTION
Make sure that the client and server have the correct date and time. If the client and server are in a testing environment, make sure that when you change the client, the server is updated accordingly.
MORE INFORMATION
The Windows Media Rights Manager issues a license from the server. The expiration date on this license depends on the value set in the Getlic.asp page, and is relative to the date and time set on the server. When the client tries to play the content, it checks the license, and then determines whether the content is expired based on the client's date and time. If the date and time set on the client are ahead of the server, the license may already be expired, which causes the error message to occur.
