Thats correct. Only one trial VM per account.

https://docs.fortinet.com/document/fortigate-private-cloud/7.2.0/kvm-administration-guide/504166/for...

Limitations of the evaluation VM license include the following:

• Maximum of one free evaluation copy per FortiCare account

[netsetup_it]

FortiGate-VM deployment packages are found on the Support site. In the Download drop-down menu, select VM Images. In the Select Product drop-down menu, select FortiGate, NOT FortiFirewall.

If you select "New deployment of FortiFirewall for VMware..." image, then you will get an error with trial license activation.

If you select "New deployment of FortiGate for VMware..." image, then you will be able to activate the trial license.

Just did this, no dice.

Solved mines as well. Downloaded the wrong VM: FFW when it should have been FG

That solved my issue also. I downloaded Fortinet Firewall and not FortiGate.
