It says The installation of this package failed.

SharePoint

Cause

  1. Missing cab files, all the files cab and exe file should be in the same folder.
  2. Also, check the size of the files that you downloaded and double check with Microsoft site.
  3. Above two are not the reason for failure.Now, check the name of your cab file. It should be like ubserv_1.cab or ubserv_2.cab; it cannot be ubserv_1(1).cab or ubserv_2(1).cab. This can also cause installation failure.
  4. Download CU from the Microsoft site and install it again.
Hope, it helps.

Happy SharePointing.
