Solution:
To resolve this error, first inspect your Internet connection by testing a website in a browser on the same machine. Resolve any connection issues you might have.

Sometimes the activation will fail because of a slow connection so please try the activation a second time, making sure your connection is okay.

To check on the status of Flexera's licensing website, go to the Flexera System Status Dashboard and look under the section called, "Flexnet Operations ALM Production".

If you are able to connect to this site and still get the same error when attempting activation, please try an offline activation following these steps.
