Hi;
Thank you for prompt response.  
It is a new installation in a apple computer.  Starting for the firs time is giving such error.  Apple give the opportunity to change script to solve problem, but do not know anything about it.  
This error is has to do with a missing “lib”?
Please advise.
thank you
jorge
