The Lync Server Front-End service terminated with service-specific error %%-1008193021.

I had a problem where the Lync Server Front-End server could not start and found the following error in the event viewer's system log
"The Lync Server Front-End service terminated with service-specific error %%-1008193021."
It was due to that the Installation bits used were evaluation bits and it had expired, the solution was to upgrade to the RTM version.

see my other post for info. about how to upgrade from Eval to RTM.
