    I have a customer who is unable to install the Bookshelf Navigation
    Utility (BNU) V1.0 on his OpenVMS VAX V6.2 platform.  He got his
    kit from the CD entitled VAXDOCMAR971.  In the [SETUP] directory of
    this particular CD ther is a file called BNU_SETUP.COM.  He ran this
    to install the product and answered the questions appropriately
    selecting default values.  If failed with the following error:
    
    %PCSI-E-FAILCONF, failed to resolve conflicting requirements
    for file [DECW$DEFAULTS.SYSTEM]BNU.DAT
    Terminating is strongly recommended.  Do you want to terminate? [YES]
    
    I've done some research on this error message... I couldn't find
    anything specific to BNU but for other products which fail in this
    manner it appears to do so when there is a newer version of the
    product already installed on the system.  This is not the case.  
    The customer thought that he needed the BNU.DAT file on his system
    so he copied it over and retried the installation; it still failed.
    I instructed him to remove the file.
    
    Any ideas?

|     I have since had an update to this problem.  Apparently, the product
    installed correctly the first time.  It's reinstallations that failed.
