655: Error E301 on registration of the Sibelius Licence Server
Error E301 indicates that you have specified the incorrect number of network seats for your given serial number. Please follow the steps below to rectify this problem.
Are you using the correct serial number?
The Licence Server will only run correctly with a network serial number, which usually start with the letters SCMM, SCEW, or SCEG.
Are you specifying the correct number of network seats?
E301 errors are most commonly caused by entering the incorrect number of network seats. If you have multiple network serial numbers, it is important to match the correct number of seats to the correct serial number.
