Hi,

(Extensive flaming of the Mma registration process deleted.)

Well I just got my upgrade to 2.1 and I am trying to install it.  When I
run the MathInstaller program (the 2nd part of the installation process) I
get an error associated with the mathpass file.

In the installation process window I can see that it checks my machine name
properly but then gives and error: BADMATHPASS.  A panel tells me to check
my dump screen for details.

In the Console I read,

"Checking password file mathpass:

No password found.
See installation instructions on how to set up your mathpass file."

I checked my mathpass file and all the info. is there ie. machine mame,
mathid, license #, password.

So I don't see what the problem is.

Does the password change for the upgraded version?  The Temporary License
Certificate did not have a new password so I assumed I should use the old
one.  The program said it was OK when it asked for it.

Anyway, any help would be appreciated.  Thanks.
