The first time it did this I stepped through all of the steps to get our activation code and tried to run it.
When I launch AutoCAD I'm prompted to activate it with a serial number or network license. When I reinstalled it recognized that I had an activation key from before and because it was valid, it used it. I (actually our purchasing office) sent the serial # and product key off to Autodesk and received the 56 character activation code back, and AutoCAD accepted it just fine.īecause of the problems, I uninstalled and reinstalled, however, that's not the problem. The activation and codes worked flawlessly.
The server is in a lab and does not have an Internet connection. This is a fresh install, not a migration, no users on the system. I'm installing AutoCAD LT 2017 onto a Windows 2008 R2 server for a customer.
