It's known "glitch" with refreshed Server eval ISOs since 2019

- Per-Martin_EdstromJan 02, 2023Copper ContributorI am now a happy man. When I ran SConfig I managed to activate the server. Thank you

Thank you for your reply. I have followed your advice but no change. I did my first attempt on a laptop. Therefore, I invested in a new Lenovo Think system ST50 V2. Now I have been working on this for 3 weeks with no success. I have access to two activation keys and now I'm considering buying a third. When you buy a car, you get both a steering wheel and a key, and then you drive the car without any action other than starting the engine.
