Fail to renew expired 10.1 SDE

Hi All,

Our 10.1 ArcGIS license just expired yesterday. I can successfully re-authorize/renew the Server part but not the SDE.
When I connect to the SDE in ArcCatalog, it asked for a  EPC file. Then I point to the new keycodes file that I copied from the arcgis server machine (\\Program Files\ESRI\License10.1\sysgen) and I got �??Fail to connect to database. Invalid parameter�?� message.
Did I miss anything? Can you please help?

thanks a lot!!!
Wilson

Wilson,

You can download a fresh ECP file separately from the below link and use that for the authorization:
https://customers.esri.com/index.cfm?event=pub.ecpAuthorizations

You can open the Keycode file that you are using to authorize (use a notepad) and check whether the licenses are updated there.

Though, I would suggest calling ESRI Tech Support for proper assistance.
