No RDS license when you connect to an RDS farm in Windows Server 2012


View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms


Assume that you install the Remote Desktop Session Host (RDSH) role service on a computer that is running Windows Server 2012, and then configure the computer to obtain licenses from a Remote Desktop Services Licensing Server. When you try to connect to the computer by using Remote Desktop or Remote App, you may receive an error message that indicates there is no Remote Desktop Services Client Access License.

Cause

This issue occurs because the RDSH server is missing certificates when a connection arrives and it cannot request a license for that connection to the Licensing server.
