Hi all!
I have a ASA 5505 that I test with which originally came with the Security Plus license. I recently erased flash and loaded the latest asa841-k8.bin version of IOS along with asdm-642.bin. Everything booted fine and came up as it does when freshly wiped however I noticed that i was now only running a base license. If I issue the sh activiation-key command, I noticed the following messages (full output is at the bottom):
The Running Activation Key is not valid, using default setting
......
This platform has a Base license.
......
Failed to retrieve flash permanent activation key
Did I somehow kill my Security Plus licensing when I did the erase flash? If so how do I recover it?
Thanks!!!!

The flash permanent activation key is the SAME as the running permanent key.
