VM License Error: "License is invalid for current VM configuration"

[fasikag]

Hello everyone,

I’m encountering a licensing error when trying to start my VM:

VM is not licensed or license is invalid for current VM configuration.
Upload a new license or reconfigure the VM.

Hi,

Have you deployed this before with a license for the FortiGate running on AWS? Every FortiGate VM in AWS that is using a BYOL license requires a license or if you connect it to your FortiCloud account one VM can be using the permanent trial license: https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate/7.6.4/administration-guide/441460

Have you received your license from your reseller? 

Regards,

Joeri
