Sorry, I detailed what worked to solve this in one of my replies, but what I 
didn't make clear was that "on a brand new machine I have never used before 
that I took out of storage, I installed Xcode 7.3.1 last night from the DMG."

This issue did not happen on a Mac that I have been working on for a while.

The big issue is that IF the user gets into this condition. Server opens up 
Xcode's About page, which it apparently expects has a button on it to allow the 
user to accept the license agreement.

It does not.

In any case, this is the terminal command that I entered that worked to solve 
the issue.

sudo /Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/MacOS/Xcode


But wait, there's more…

Now, here we run into something interesting.  The Mac I installed this on 
hasn't had Xcode or 10.11.5 on it before, but I am making an install that I can 
hopefully clone and ship to my office where our server should sit.

I don't know if the hard drive I used to house the OS and Xcode has ever had 
Xcode on it before.

That said, the problem remains that when OS X Server asks the user to open 
Xcode and agree to the license agreement, and it opens the Xcode About page, - 
there is no place to accept the license agreement.  

As far as I know, there is no place within Xcode where we can do that, let 
alone in the About page, which OS X Server directs the user to.

Thank you, Jens.
