Hi,  any reason you are using version 1.1.7?

We did not officially support template programmer API until the 1.2.5 release with the platform..

Thanks for the quick response, our DNAC box came with the default 1.1.7 version and we have been unable to upgrade the box to a newer version. It always gets stuck with the below error :

Unfortunately, the earlier versions of DNAC had difficulty in doing upgrades. What I found I had to do was to download each application separately and then install in a specific order. I don't have that order available; however, I did find it in the Cisco.com site. Once you get to version 1.2.5, the upgrades work much better. 

In your case, it may be better to get the version 1.2.8 on a usb drive and re-install from scratch.
