anyone have clue on issue? can't find other somone saying sp1 caused because uninstall sp1 , able activate without issue. also, ms activation error codes webpage says nothing error code (http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff793399.aspx). the thing can activate sp1 installed, on other servers have. there's definatly wrong 5 windows 2008 pcs have i'm not wrong them. it's not dns or kms host pc has issue. said, able activate brand new 2008 r2 sp1, same build pcs i'm having issues with, without issue.

i tried contacting microsoft software assurance support person talked wasn't helpful. kept saying there's issue dns or kms host. concluded using slmgr.vbs /skms <name[:port] | : port>. did slmgr.vbs /ato , able activate against kms host. said must have pc in same domain kms host false. tested activation without joining domain morning on new server created without issue. doesn't have in same domain, has have correct dns suffix in tcp/ip dns entry kms host.

the issue looks activation process needing file run can't find it.
