After reinstalling an Autodesk 2010 product Revit redundant licensing no longer functions
Issue
After you reinstall an Autodesk 2010 product redundant licensing no longer functions for Revit.
Solution
Revit will only work for redundant license servers when the ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE registry key is set to point to the licpath.lic file.
The ADSKFLEX_LICENSE_FILE key is located in the following registry folder:
Windows XP: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FLEXlm License Manager
Windows Vista: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\FLEXlm License Manager
The Revit licpath.lic file is located in the following folder:
C:\Program Files\<Revit Product Version>\Program
Warning! Use the Microsoft® Registry Editor only at your own risk and only after backing up the registry as well as the system.dat and user.dat files as outlined for your operating system in the Microsoft Knowledge Base and in the related solution, TS66513. Additional information about the registry is also contained in the Help topics in the Microsoft Registry Editor.
