Have been running on a Premium trial version of SBS Server 2008 and all has been fine. I rearmed again on Friday 2/18/2010 all was fine until this morning we come in and find SQL is saying database expired, error 17051. &nbsp;How do i remedy this? &nbsp;Everything else is fine, we can access files on server and Exchange is running fine. &nbsp;SQL seems to have failed to update the trial registration? &nbsp;I am obtaining a license, but that will take a little while, I guess, as I haven't started looking for a vendor, yet. &nbsp;How to get SQL back up? &nbsp;Microsoft is not very responsive....
