There are suddenly no more licenses available for some providers. The cause is probably a \"time bomb\" in Citrix License Server 11.17.2 Build 51000, in which the required license file is simply deleted under certain circumstances. However, Citrix has published instructions on how service provider administrators can finally solve this problem.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/vg02.met.vgwort.de\/na\/79681e42f5794b1a88c57db7107f33e6\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" \/>German blog reader Joern wrote in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.borncity.com\/blog\/2025\/02\/05\/teams-2-0-25007-607-3371-8436-unter-citrix-auf-server-2019-ts-nun-installierbar-feb-2025\/#comment-209790\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this comment<\/a> on March 3, 2025 that he was affected by this problem.

On March 1, 2025, a \"time bomb\" has probably been activated, which deletes the licenses. Jan has documented this in a log excerpt:<\/p>\n<pre>01\/03\/2025 00:07:20.022 [Warning] : main : legacylicensemgmttool.cpp : 196 : Using default time 1740783600\r\n01\/03\/2025 00:07:20.022 [Warning] : main : legacylicensemgmttool.cpp : 206 : Time to clean the licenses\r\n01\/03\/2025 00:07:20.022 [Warning] : main : legacylicensemgmttool.cpp : 266 : SUCCESS!! Tool Execution Complete<\/pre>\n<p>JJan has received feedback from his contact who is the contact person for Citrix. It seems that Citrix partners have been strongly \"encouraged\" to upgrade to Citrix License Server version 5100. In this version, a \"kill pill\" is activated, which is fired <em>if the partner is not shown as fully compliant in the Citrix telemetry, then the license file is removed from the Citrix license server<\/em>. No one can work afterwards.<\/p>\n<p>The quick workaround is to downgrade the Citrix License Server to an older version and import a license file that was activated before 01.09.2024.<\/p>\n<p>Citrix support writes that those affected must uninstall the Citrix License Server (11.17.2, build 51000) and then install the Citrix License Server version 11.17.2, build 49000. A valid license file must then be imported.
