If you receive the error message, "Could not connect to the Primary Server. Check that the specified machine is accessible and has a License Server Installed."

Go to Windows Services and make sure the 3 License Server services are running.

If the first 2 are not running, go ahead and start them. License Server Core will start running once License Server Agent is started.
