The Trial Period For This Product Has Expired.

Even after I put in a good MOSS Enterprise key, did and iisreset, and rebooted. UGH. Why?

Well, it turns out as a final reminder this server once was setup as a basic install, my Central Admin app pool was running as Network Service instead of my farm account. And for some reason Network Service did not have the rights to license the product. Change the app pool, recycle the app pool, and no more error message. UGH

Another new error message because of the Central Admin App Pool being wrong:

An unhandled exception occurred in the user interface.Exception Information: Unable to load DLL 'Microsoft.Office.Server.Native.dll': The specified module could not be found. (Exception from HResult: 0x8007007E)

This message occurred when you went to Application Management > Check services enabled in this farm

Hope this helps people when they are searching the web. I couldn't find any help. S

Thank god you came up with an answer, I was looking for the answer yesterday, when it happen, I tried the rebooting but did not work, I added the proper accounts to the WSS_ADMIN_WPG and WSS_WPG groups to see if that would solve it , but forgot the iisreset, thanks for the info.

Even with the right service accounts and a valid product key, we still had the error on 1 farm. I ended up needing to run (re-run) the SP2 hotfix on my WFEs and rebooting to make the error go away: blogs.msdn.com/.../service-pack-2-update.aspx.

I'm so honored to comment on the blog of an F.O.T. (Friend of Todd)

Did not work for me.

I solved it by going to:

http://server name:port number/_admin/Conversion.aspx

and reenter my key

I found this error why I tried to attached a workflow in the Project Task and this is the native workflow of Sharepoint.
