ERROR: Feature MAPDL Solve Capability timed out

ERROR: Feature MAPDL Solve Capability timed out

ERROR: Feature MAPDL Solve Capability timed out

(OP)
Hey everyone,

I've been running a FEM simulation on Ansys 15.0 using Workbench + Mechanical. The simulation always fails with the error in the Mechanical Module stating:

"An unknown error occurred during solution. Check the Solver Output on the Solution Information object for possible causes."

I've checked the Solver Output and it says

"WARNING:
License server lost for 55 minutes. Please save your work.
License server will time out in 5 minutes if not reconnected before.

ANSYSLI_SERVERS: 2325@User;2325@Computer
FLEXlm Servers: 1055@User;1055@Computer

*** IMPORTANT LICENSING MESSAGE ***

ERROR:

Exiting... "

It's obvious that for some reason my licence server timed out but I have no idea why or how to stop it

Someone please help me, this is driving me crazy!! :(

RE: ERROR: Feature MAPDL Solve Capability timed out

Turn it off, then turn it on again,

The licence server I mean...

I'm being serious...
