Thanks, I really appreciate the help. I’ve followed those instructions but have the same problem, only with some different details.

After seeing the above I tried rebooting a few times. No improvement, so I uninstalled the package, rebooted again and installed the package fresh. This time generating some new errors:

I’ve rebooted a few more times and the feedback remains the same. Any further thoughts welcome!
