Solution
If the error message 'Invalid license file' is received after uploading the correct VM license file.

1)Make sure the VM is registered under the correct FortiCare account.
2)Disable Fortiguard Anycast
# config system fortiguard
set fortiguard-anycast disable
end
If it does not work with the above, also by enabling the protocol UDP:
# config system fortiguard
set protocol udp
end
3)Check your default auth-cert is Fortinet_Factory
# config sys global
# get | grep auth-cert
auth-cert: Fortinet_Factory
If the following solutions does not solve the issue, collect the debug logs and contact technical support for further in-depth troubleshooting.

# diag deb reset
# diag deb app update -1
# diag deb enable
# exec update-now
