How to Update / Upgrade server
---------------------------------------------Original post below---------------------------------------------
I'm having the same issue. I looked through some old file logs and it looks like the license file might have expired expired or something? I'm using a free license (not NPL, 32 slot only).
Code:

Server 3.1-3.2 do not load default license
So today my server messed up. Once people disconnected and went to reconnect no one could reconnect. I restarted the server and went to start it again. I get the error "|CRITICAL|Accounting | |Failed loading default license file!" which in the log says
Please set the environment variable TS3SERVER_LICENSE to "accept" in order to accept the license agreement.
Alternatively, create a file named ".ts3server_license_accepted" in the working directory or start the server with the command line parameter "license_accepted=1".
To view the license agreement set TS3SERVER_LICENSE to "view" in order to print the license to the console.
Alternatively view the file "LICENSE" in your favorite text viewer yourself.
Which I already have the file in there and everything is set to accept. After this I tried starting it with ./ts3server_minimal_runscript.sh to see more details. Which I saw it tried to do this first "|WARNING |Accounting | |Unable to open licensekey.dat, falling back to limited functionality".
After that I get the first error with not being able to load the default license file.
FreeBSD teamspeak server install just stopped working after several years of no issue
I was just alerted that my free TS3 freebsd server is no longer online. I'm running it on a local freebsd box(technically on my pfSense box, but it's been working fine for several years).
I ran /usr/local/etc/rc.d/teamspeak3-server.sh forcestop to make sure it was completely stopped, then ran /usr/local/etc/rc.d/teamspeak3-server.sh start but I receive the following error;
Starting the TeamSpeak 3 server
TeamSpeak 3 server started, for details please view the log file
2018-09-01 00:05:41.455334|CRITICAL|Accounting | |Failed loading default license file!
I have not made any changes to the install and haven't even touched pfSense in a while, this happened randomly about half an hour ago. I tried google searching that license error and got no results. Log says "Unable to open licensekey.dat" as well. Not sure how to fix because I've never had a licensekey.dat file and have no idea why my server is suddenly trying and failing to load it. :confused:
Unable to start Teamspeak3-Server
Hello.
Today I tried to start my Teamspeak 3 Server again after rebooting because nobody could connect to my server even though there were clients online. This error came up when i tried to start the server after shutting it down:

Server 3.1-3.2 do not load default license
I have never had a license so I'm not sure why this issues suddenly started. After viewing a log from a month ago it appears a default license is created with an expiration date. How do I remove/replace this "default license". Again, I have no need for anything other than the free 32 slot version of the server. Latest log and a log from over a month ago are attached via jpg image.
Error: Failed loading default license key
After a restart to my machine hosting a TeamSpeak sever, I encountered this error in my logs:

and this in my command line:
PHP Code:
/opt/teamspeak3-server# 2018-09-01 01:17:10.678065|CRITICAL|Accounting | |Failed loading default license file!
Some information that may help:
- default license (32 slot)
- current sever version 3.2.0 on Linux Ubuntu
- MariaDB as database (still fails if I try to use default SQlite)
- I have accepted the license using the file .ts3server_license_accepted
- here is my root folder for the TS server
Preparing to upgrade to latest server version, but would like help resolving this issue beforehand, paired with the fact a clean install is probably (and hopefully) not the issue here :P
I tried to provide as much information as is necessary, but please ask if anything else in needed of me.
Thank you ahead of time,
