Sorry for the false alarm. Another admin was doing the installs and I did not initially question the work. TDPSQL error ACO5716W can also be caused by the dsm.opt file not being present in the TDPSQL directory. The text of the message indicates the API is not installed, but does not say it cannot find the dsm.opt file.

What makes you think it isn't installed? If it was just that you didn't see the files, in 5.5 the API will install underneath C:\Program Files\Common Files.
