I'm getting the following error when running the Havana installer:

"There is a problem with this Windows Installer package. A DLL required for this install to complete could not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor."

I'm running a nested Windows Server 2012 R2 Hyper-V instance in vSphere.

Log file excerpt below:

CustomActions: Writing nova.conf file

I can't upload a file with less than 10 points. I've copy and pasted the error from the log, though, if that helps.

Any updates on this? Can I provide any more information?

for logs I suggest to past them on: http://pastebin.com/ and then paste the link here. The installer needs to perform some Python configuration, which in turn requires the VC 2008 runtime (installed as well by the installer). This might be a hint for this error, which is not easy too diagnose

To rule out issues with the VC++ redistributable, can you please install it from the following link and attempt again? http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=29

I've installed VC++ redist SP1 2008 and ran windows updates, got a similar error. I've attached a truncated log to this pastebin link: http://pastebin.com/PfZRB1b1

Any other ideas here? The logs seem to indicate that VC++ 2008 isn't installed, but I definitely installed it.
