Yes, I agree. But from my perspective, I wasn't trying to describe why it wasn't working, only what worked for me. That was the best help I could offer.

After giving up, I decided to try the second command and it worked. This happened several times the same day. Anyway, I just tried the first command and it now works with out error.
