Why Can't I Raise My Personal Levy in My Capital?

As you can see the button is greyed out, and the levy screen claims about half of my personal levy that should be coming out of my capital is missing from my total personal levy. I don't understand. What's preventing me from raising personal levies in my capital? I can raise vassal levies there no problem.

Already raised the levy of the castle ?

You are a vassal.

You've already raised the levy of that particular barony. Levies will begin to replenish if the raised levy suffers any losses due to battle or attrition, but you can't raise them until the original levy is disbanded. If disbanded in friendly (owned) territory, they will return to the barony of origin, adding to the replenished levy up to its maximum levy amount, which you can then raise immediately.

Look through your raised levies for the levy from Besançon. You can't have multiple levies raised from one holding.

As implied by the picture, I had not. Even with all my levies down I cannot raise the levy in my capital. For some reason after a few years the problem solved itself. I don't understand why.

It's a bug. It also happened to me long time ago then it became available again without no reason.

I've never encountered such a bug. Perhaps you should specify your game version and any mods you may be using. The last time I had a problem with levies was under the 2.3 patch which prevented levies from being disbanded, but not raised. It was linked to rulers who succeeded their predecessor while the levy was raised.

It was long time ago. About two years I think it happened to me. It's a very rare one because it never happened again.

I suspect its because the garrison isn't full (which can happen if your martial skill increases). Its not usually a problem because if the garrison needs replenishment, then the levy got destroyed with it.

If you can replicate it, its worth a bug report (if nothing else for the, 'this doesn't work and the game doesn't explain why' issue)

I had this bug two weeks ago.
The same story happened to me. I had to wait til the old levy army had been disbanded/destroyed after this I could raise levies as normal.
But this happended only once to me in my 400hrs playtime

Had it with the last patch too at some point; only serious bug I found about.

That is working as it should and doesn't sound as the problem described above..
..or do you mean a levy raised by your liege prevented you from raising your own ?

I think it might simply be a display/calculation bug then.
So while it looks like it, you don't actualy have an own levy to raise yet and the only avilable troops are the reserved ones for the liege.
Or so...
The green and red bars aren't really a reliable indicator anymore.

Cool to see someone else playing the same region as me I am very jealous of you having the Umayyad's just in Spain. Look at my mess.
