can't install lion server

Hi Apple Support Folks,

My MacPro will not allow me to upgrade to Mountain Lion. OK.. So I am now running MacOSX Lion and wanted to add the MacOSX Lion Server software.

I purchased Lion Server via telephone call to Apple, downloaded and otherwise received - license.pdf, etc - all of the goodies.

then, when it came time to install the software, the installer reported:

I have no clue as to why this is a problem. Can anyone suggest how to move on from this point?

Thank yo

Mac OS Lion Server-OTHER, Mac OS X (10.7.5)

OK, NOW I get it... What I was trying to install was the MacOS Lion Server DMG from the Apple Developer site - of which I am a paying member.

As soon as I stopped trying that approach and opened the Appstore application on my machine, clicked on purchases, saw the LION SERVER entry (which is what I purchased) and clicked on INSTALL, everything went perfectly well and my problem is solved.

YEAA!
