Dear Wolgang, Stefano
I have followed your suggestion. I copied and pasted the files into the tmp
folders in my windows. still got errors and these are the log files --- it
is long. But I could see some potential problems as shown by the log file -
BOLD by me. I know it will take time, but someone will able to find the
problems there.
Regards,
kamarul
