ArcSDE Service Startup error: Error (-327), no ArcSDE server license found.

The server is installed with arcsde9.3 and ArcGIS shorttop9.2.

ArcGIS Desktop 9.2 Service Pack 5

ArcGIS Server for the Microsoft. NET Framework 9.2 Service Pack 5

ArcGIS Engine runtime 9.2

ArcSDE for Oracle10g R2. 9.3

One day, I suddenly found that SDE could not be started. I checked the system logs and prompted the following error:

The description of event ID (110) cannot be found in the resource (esri_sde. The local computer may not have the necessary registration information or message DLL file to display messages from the remote computer. You may use the/auxsource = identifier to retrieve the word description. View help and support for more information. The following information is part of the event:
Error (-327), no ArcSDE server license found.

Double-click the ECP file that uses arcsde9.3 to indicate that the version is incorrect. The secret must use softwareauthorization.exe of version 9.2.

Find the sdeinstaller and use v9.3's softwareauthorization.exe. After registration, the error is still the same when the service is started.
