Hi,

The problem is that your package contains over 60500 files, which is almost twice the number of files supported by the default MSI database schema (32767 files). The only solution to this problem is changing the schema of the database, increasing the limit for several columns, as described here:

We are investigating this issue as we speak. I shall let you know when the test results will be available.
