Also search your .fr files for "PluginVersion" and make sure it lists kInDesignServerProduct where the default generated source only has kInDesignProduct.

The best practice is to split plugins into two parts - basically one with all panels/dialogs and one with only model code. The one with model code can then be shared with server (cs6 server on windows is more awkward since it only supports 64 bit and InDesign is only 32 bit so separate compiles are needed)
