I get an error with evaluation code With YaST: Registration server error. Retry registration later. Details: Validation failed: Uuid should be formatted as UUID From CLI: sles12:~/Desktop # SUSEConnect -r A925\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*88 -e [myname@mailserver.com](mailto:myname@mailserver.com) Error: SCC returned ‘Validation failed: Uuid should be formatted as UUID’ (500) And it doesn’t matter what do I use - login or email. The evaluation code I get from customer center, subscription is already there. I tried clean install, but attempt to register during install brings the same error. ---

Hi From the man page, looks like you need the url as well; ```auto SUSEConnect --url https://scc.suse.com -r -e >> ``` – Cheers Malcolm °¿° LFCS, SUSE Knowledge Partner (Linux Counter #276890) SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 GNOME 3.10.1 Kernel 3.12.38-44-default If you find this post helpful and are logged into the web interface, please show your appreciation and click on the star below… Thanks! ---

The result is just the same with --url option: `sles12:~/Desktop # SUSEConnect --url [url]https://scc.suse.com[/url] -r A925 ******** 88 -e [email]myname@mailserver.com[/email] Error: SCC returned 'Validation failed: Uuid should be formatted as UUID' (500)` ---

If it’s still failing then press the SCC feedback button and report as an issue. It’s a similar error to this one; [https://forums.suse.com/showthread.php?5963-SCC-Validation-failed-System-has-already-been-taken](https://forums.suse.com/showthread.php?5963-SCC-Validation-failed-System-has-already-been-taken) – Cheers Malcolm °¿° LFCS, SUSE Knowledge Partner (Linux Counter #276890) SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop 12 GNOME 3.10.1 Kernel 3.12.38-44-default If you find this post helpful and are logged into the web interface, please show your appreciation and click on the star below… Thanks! ---

There are no systems in SCC. Also I can’t find any feedback button in SCC, my support page says: > [@](#): > > You are not currently entitled to use the support system. Maybe because I have only this 60 Day Subscription Evaluation. ---

Hi Hmmm, it should still work. Can you start a new thread in [https://forums.suse.com/forumdisplay.php?98-SUSE-Customer-Center](https://forums.suse.com/forumdisplay.php?98-SUSE-Customer-Center) with the issue, it should catch the eye of the SCC folks.
