this thread can help you resolving the issue - Activation Failed - Activation key has already been used on this instance - #2 by Jon
all you need to do is run the n8n license:clear
in your terminal run this docker command, and that should do -
docker exec -u node -it n8n license:clear
OH it worked thanks alot man
We are using containers too and have gone one step further and added the environment variable N8N_LICENSE_DETACH_FLOATING_ON_SHUTDOWN and set it to TRUE this should mean when a container shuts down, it frees the licence so as to be compatible with containers temporary nature
