Unfortunately there is very little information there to be able to
help you.  GNU install does not support all of those options.  I
checked the BSD man page for install too and neither does it support
-U or -i.  Who is to say what the author of whatever it is you are
trying to do was intending?  You mentioned -u but then showed -U.
Generally upper and lower case are different options and the
difference is significant.
