Hello all,

I am getting the following error when installing a package:

Error 1721. There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A
program required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact
your support personnel or package vendor. Action:
vim22196F3C0E37041DC83B636B8CC2863E, location: , command: /q  "C:\Program
Files (x86)\My Package\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\My Package.vsix" /admin

It seems the VSIXInstaller.exe is found but not set properly:

MSI (s) (6C:DC) [10:31:12:369]: Executing op:
CustomActionSchedule(Action=vim22196F3C0E37041DC83B636B8CC2863E,ActionType=3122,,Target=/q

Package.vsix" /admin,)
MSI (s) (6C:DC) [10:31:12:370]: Note: 1: 1721 2:

Package\Microsoft Visual Studio 14.0\My Package.vsix" /admin
MSI (s) (6C:DC) [10:31:12:370]: Note: 1: 2205 2:  3: Error

The actions to look for the wsix installer are
executing,setting VS2015_VSIX_INSTALLER_PATH and then
not VS_VSIX_INSTALLER_PATH.

Any help would be appreciated,

Thanks,

Jerome
