Bug

When ArcGIS Server 10.1 is installed and the keycodes file contains version 10.0 features, creating a site in ArcGIS Server Manager fails with the error 'Failed to create the site. The machine does not have a valid license. Please authorize ArcGIS Server by clicking Start > Programs > ArcGIS > Software Authorization'. The Software Authorization Wizard should reject authorization numbers for previous versions to avoid this.
