You might also check that you still have plenty of space left in /usr  and
/var.

Hello,

I had the same problem and discovered that I wrongly installed the Netview
CLIENT before installing the Netview Server ... I had to manually wipe up
lots of directories to get that right !!!! (the uninstall client didn't
help)

Maybe you did the same mistake as me ! ???

 I'm trying to install a new Nv5.1 on Aix 4.3.2.0. I don't have any old
version. I have successfully installed TME Framework 3.6, Tme patch for
Netview, Dynatext browser.
 But when I started the Netview 5.1 installation process I got the
following error message:

Checking product dependencies...
 patch NVTMP311 is already installed as needed.
Dependency check completed.
