Gerry, why do you want to install 5.0 (I think Scott is saying 5.0 is
unsupported too)?
I would avoid it, since an awful lot of bugs have been fixed since then (two
years' worth!)
and nice new functions added.  The current product is measurably more stable, if
you
ask me...

Cordially,

Leslie A. Clark
IBM Global Services - Systems Mgmt & Networking


So, if I'm reading this correctly....

Netview 5.0 is supported, but the framework it runs on (3.2) is not supported.
If you
want to get to a supported framework (3.6), you must install Netview 5.1, which
is
a re-install and not an upgrade...

Is this true???

You will not be able to install NetView 5.0 on Framework 3.6. Only
NetView 5.1 and up will install on Framework 3.6. Without seeing the
logs I cannot be sure but this is probably the reason for your
installation failure.

NetView 5.0 will install on Framework 3.2 but is unsupported in any
case. As James said, the only course of action we can recommend is
upgrading to NetView 5.1.
