  Thanks Zoltan,

You may be correct  could be a bad/corrupt package I downloaded the
package from the FTP site. It appears  the TIVsmCapi.pkg portion
completed successfully.  If I were to try a higher version wouldn' t I
have to uninstall that package or can I just leave it and the newer
would overwrite?




Regards
