Deploy to Hostheader Error

 

I added the host header to the Hosts file as described in some blogs. Unfortunately SharePoint started asking me for my credentials.

The solution was to delete the entry from the hosts file and extend the web application site with the server name.

The trial period for this product has expired.

 

Recently after some windows updates i got this error on my SharePoint sites.

In the SharePoint Log-files I found this error:

Failure checking user access permissions for User Profile Application Proxy 'User Profile Service Application'. Exception: Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: The trial period for this product has expired.

I found this Blogentry

So I tried first the solution at the end of the article, becose the first one semed to be awkward. I did this

psconfig -cmd secureresources

Still the same error, even after an iisreset and a server restart.

I found there in the comments a link to a technet entry and then found the solution:

Workaround: In central admin go to "Central Admin" => Monitoring => "Review Rule Definitions" => click on "Trial period for this product is about to expire" rule under configuration and edit it. Uncheck the "Enabled" checkbox.

So I did this.

Still the same error even after iisreset.

So I got back and tried the first Ugly solution.

Still the same error even after iisreset.

In the IIS I found this:

So I started the The web Services Application

Still the same error even after iisreset.

And I’m still searching for a solution.

Finally I looked in SharePoint central Administration – Upgrade and Migration - Convert farm license type. And there I found the problem:

After an iisreset everything went well.

Sometimes error messages are really what they seems to be. Even Microsoft error Messages.
