Installing AppFabric 1.1 on Windows Server 2012 Giving Error
Solution 1
I search on google and found the solution of this. When I was trying to install the AppFabric before that i have installed SQL Server. Therefore in the Environment Variable
a variable with the name PSModulePath
was having SQL Server path inside it.
So I just remove that path and try to install AppFabric
again and the problem was solved.
It is now installed.

This error happend because you've deleted the installtion folder. On disk C that folder name is GUID key in this form c:/75f74225aca163c57a7737aa59a4. You have to rerun WindowsServerAppFabricSetup_x64.msi and before pressing next on the first screen, see the installation path and copy the temporal folder that contain the missing files that has been generated the error code : 1603.
You can see the line before throw the error in you log file
Process.Start: C:\Windows\system32\msiexec.exe /quiet /norestart /i "c:\338f6462408072c851cf3b1e\Packages\AppFabric-1.1-for-Windows-Server-64.msi" ADDDEFAULT=Worker,WorkerAdmin,CacheClient,Setup /l*vx "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\AppServerSetup1_1(2013-03-05 18-06-39).log" LOGFILE="C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\AppServerSetup1_1_CustomActions(2013-03-05 18-06-39).log" INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\AppFabric 1.1 for Windows Server" LANGID=en-US
Then remove the words Process.Start
: and /quiet
and execute the command as administrator in MSDOS
C:\Windows\system32\msiexec.exe /norestart /i "c:\338f6462408072c851cf3b1e\Packages\AppFabric-1.1-for-Windows-Server-64.msi" ADDDEFAULT=Worker,WorkerAdmin,CacheClient,Setup /l*vx "C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\AppServerSetup1_1(2013-03-05 18-06-39).log" LOGFILE="C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\AppServerSetup1_1_CustomActions(2013-03-05 18-06-39).log" INSTALLDIR="C:\Program Files\AppFabric 1.1 for Windows Server" LANGID=en-US
The installer will be go to the step before the error and then ask for the missing folder, select the path of the folder that you copied to C: indicated in the first step up.

Same problem, the PSModulePath had the SQL Server 2012 path since I had already installed it, but the path had a trailing double quote ("), which broke any scripts that used the PSModulePath variable.

Nick Ryan about 11 yearsDid you install the pre-requisites in the right order and follow the instructions to the letter?

Rahul Gokani about 11 yearsYes I installed the pre-requisites from the SharePoint-2013's dvd but in this os(Windows Server 2012) it is not allowing me to install.

Nick Ryan about 11 yearsDid you see anything in the appfabric installation log?
C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\AppServerSetup1_1(2013-03-05 18-06-39).log
? It's mentioned in the trace above. It might have more detail on why the msi exploded -
Bernd about 10 yearsI'll admit I don't really understand why - but this worked for me - thanks!
