Release Management error "The system cannot find the file specified"

Question

We are getting the above error when deploying to a set of 4 servers (all belong to a tag).  The deployment succeeds for 3/4 servers.  For the server that fails, there is no tool or command output log to look at.  We are able to log on to the
server in question and run the command manually (i.e. .\msiexec <filename.msi>) and that succeeds.
What can we do to troubleshoot this further?

Thanks, John.  We are using Update 4.  I enabled the details logging on the deployment agent and saw the following.  The POSValidationSvc_Installer.msi file is available in the 201501200901505104929-7 folder:
Deployment: **********Installation will be done from this folder: "C:\Users\<deploymentAgentServiceAccount>\AppData\Local\Temp\RM\T\RM\POS_HQ_MSI_INSTALLER\201501200901505104929-7"
