problem now fixed
did a complete re-install of OS
something must have gone wrong the first time
Hi tjsearle,
thank you for reporting back.
Debugging error situations sometimes is more troublesome than “fixing” it by re-installation - I’m glad that choice actually got your issue resolved 
Regards,
Jens
