HI

We are using Momentics 6.2.1 - We read with interest someone elses struggles
with this at an earlier date !

We do not seem to be able to get “installer” from windows to even find some
proprietary (.qpr) software
we loaded on a user directory. - Basically we could not even navigate to it
!

We now run from terminal
qnxinstall our.qpr /CD-QNX*.

This presents us with the packages to install and we can “check” the boxes
against our desired packages but the INSTALL option does not become
available.

  • What now ?

THANKS

Can you provide some detail of the steps you took here?

What is the state of the package in the right-most column? Check your system
clock to make sure that the date of the system is not set in the past,
before the package was released.

OK - we found the problem thanks

It looks as though we were NOT using 6.2.1 but 6.2.0 - is this a known
problem with 6.2.0.

With 6.2.1 properly installed everything is OK

Thanks again
