Ok Mac Pro 3.1 El Cap 10.11.6 Latest Security Update 2018-004 does not show up in the App Store so I followed a link to the Apple Support Downloads site. Trying to install this I encountered the following error.
Interestingly I can reinstall the previous Security Update with no such errors. The latest Safari update installed without problems.
Any ideas why it won't.
Thanks.
Mac Pro, macOS High Sierra (10.13.2), 6Gb Ram Nvidea GT120
Hi thanks for replying, but I managed to figure out what is wrong with the download. I expanded the package using Terminal and then opened the Distribution file in BBEdit there is a list of about 49 Plist checks where it compares Versions that it can install on. So the build number of my El Capitan install was missing (15G21012) so I just changed 15G21013 to mine, saved the new version of the Distribution and then re packaged the file, and now it would install.

Hi EauRouge. Have you tried installing the security update in Safe Mode?
Eau Rouge, how about posting your step-by-step procedure for the benefit of us less-sophisticated users? Like where to find the build number, how to expand in Terminal, etc. Looks like there might be a lot of people with the same issue.
OK, glad you got it sorted. You might give your answer the Solved greenie, so others who run into the same problem have a solution.
Have you experienced this problem, I think Apple should sort it out and not leave it to others.
Dear Eau,
I understand you are busy, but I would appreciate if you could please see the 2 posts I listed.
Thanks Mate
Where are those 2 posts listed? I don't see GoodMacDream previously in this thread. Was the message posted to the wrong discussion?
