Him
This is an error in smartsetup that affects some customers and has already been fixed, but the current setup isn't updated with the fix yet. The simplest workaround is to use smartsetup directly, instead of setup.exe which is just a wrapper around it.

The steps would be:

Uninstall your current setup from Start Menu->Install and Uninstall programs"
Install smart setup from Download | TMS Smart Setup documentation
You can run tmsgui.exe to install it, or if you prefer the command line:
3.1. Create a folder for tms components
3.2. in the command line, cd to that folder and do tms credentials. Enter your email and reg code.
3.3. If you want to customize further, type tms config. If you are ok with the defaults, just skip this step
3.4. Type tms install tms.flexcel.vcl

Hi Adrian, Thanks for the information. I have used the link for Smart Setup, however, looks like your production server not responding timely manner during the TMS Smart Client download, as a result I am now stuck on download process during the installation of TMS Flexcel VCL!!

Here is the log:

There were errors. If you need to contact support, please attach the logs at "C:\Users\morajiv\AppData\Local\TMS Setup\Logs\logs.zip".

also I will upload the complete logs!

Please tell me what is faster way to fix the installation process. Also do you have any hotline to get support by calling or contacting! I am looking forward to it.

This is weird, it seems like there is a connection issue so it isn't downloading the package, but it did connect because it found them in the tms repo. Might be a temporary server down? For the record, this is how it should look like (I just tried it here right now):

So, what I would say is:

Please retry again now. Maybe it was a temporary network glitch.
If you still can't get it, please email me to adrian@tmssoftware.com and I'll send you a link to an updated setup that should work as expected.
