Marcus - Finally it works!!!!!
I uninstalled and re-installed several times, then I ran
sudo cp /usr/local/lib/libowcapi.so /usr/lib/libowcapi.so
and then it works!
Unfortunately I am working away from home all week so I will play with
it some more next weekend.
Many, many thanks for all your help, I really appreciate it.
Regards
Mick
