Product: PowerShell Universal
Version: 3.6.2
OS: Server 2019
Installer: MSI
Trying to upgrade a 3.6.2 install using the 3.6.4 MSI but immediately after launching the MSI I get the below error. Typical default configuration: (LiteDB) running as a service account that has local admin on the server and both the Repository and DB are located on the D: volume. Tried running the MSI as another local admin and then again as the service account it runs as, same error in both cases.
Can you share your appsettings.json file in C:\ProgramData\PowerShellUniversal?

Sure. Looking at the MSI log it appears that perhaps the MSI is appending my install path to the end of the default rather than replacing the default?

As I didn’t see a way to attach the log file to this post, I tried pasting the contents of the log file here but it gave me a max character length error for the post. If you need more than the lines I posted above to identify the issue, let me know the best method for me to get you the entire file.
Can you check the UAPATH environment variable? I know that others have had issues and deleting that may resolve it.
