The product archive is invalid. The installer package may not include paths

I try again here, since we got no further and this message is becoming a show-stopper for us.
We have a simple app-file and build a package from this with Productbuilder only using
productbuild --component 'INtex Fahrtenbuch AS.app' --sign '3rd Party Mac Developer Installer: INtex Publishing GmbH & Co. KG' 'InstallationINtexFahrtenbuchAS.pkg'
Furthermore we checked for extended attributes everywhere with
ls -lad@ *
and removed any with
xattr -d -r com.apple.FinderInfo *
xattr -d -r com.apple.ResourceFork *
Packaging with Product Builder went fine and installation test with sudo was no problem.
Still we can´t upload our installer to iTunes connect. Message is once again but this time only:
The product archive is invalid. The installer package may not include paths outside of a bundle.
What can we do about that ? There is no path outside the bundle ...

Do you have any solution now?
Welcome to Apple Discussions, Mr. GraphicConverter
The standard suggestion is to clean and rebuild. There were a number of such posts on the paid Developer Forums a few weeks ago, but nothing since.

This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and tat you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows installer package.
Please help so I can get iTunes onto my computer.

I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

"The language of this installation package is not supported by your system" Error Message when installing Office 2010

Hello, I am having a very hard time attempting to install Office 2010 Pro Plus on a system. The error message that I receive is as follows:
The language of this installation package is not supported by your system.
I have tried running the Microsoft FixIt tool to remove any traces of Office 2007 and Office 2010. Also, I have followed the instructions in
KB928218 to manually uninstall any traces of Office 2007.
I believe the user had both Office 2007 and Office 2010 installed previously. There is no article to remove all traces of Office 2010.
Here is some additional output from the Setup log:
Parsing setup.xml file: F:\Access.en-us\setup.xml
Error: Installation of this product requires operating system supplemental language support. Type: 54::NoSupportedCulture.
Error: Installation of this product requires operating system supplemental language support. Type: 54::NoSupportedCulture.

I have tried both running setup from a disc and a network share. I am completely stumped and have been trying to get this to load for hours now. Thanks in advance for any advice!

HT5030 whem installing itunes i get this message "this installation package could not be opened. Verifiy that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"

whem installing itunes on my mums new computer which is windows 7 i get this message everytime "this installation package could not be opened. Verifiy that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid windows installer package"

Let's check your Windows system.
1. Have you done all the important windows updates and service Packs on your system. If not do it now. START button, type in Windows Update and ENTER. Select 'CHECK FOR UPDATES'
2. Let's check your Windows system files for possible file corruption
SCAN and repair possible Windows system file corruption:
Go to command prompt (START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES right mouse click "command prompt" and choose "Run as Administrator"
type in
sfc /scannow
let Windows fix any system files that need to be repaired.
Restart the computer if it did actually repair any files.
3. Check your system for possible Malware. But you have to do it in WIndows Safe Mode.
Start your computer in "Safe mode with networking", go to this link download a free version of Malwarebyte.
http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free
Install and perform update immediately, then do a full SCAN. Remove malware if it indeed finds any. Restart computer to regular windows to let Malwarebyte complete the removal.
To start your computer in safe mode
Press and hold the F8 key as your computer starts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you'll need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.
On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the "safe mode with networking" option, and then press Enter. Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.
When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of your screen. To exit safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally.

The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exist

HELP!
I have not been able to update my Itunes to a newer version (since 6.0.5). Every time I try to upgrade to the newer version I get this error message when I try to install:
"The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package"
This is been incredibly frustrating because now I am limited in what songs and albums I can buy online because they require the newer version. I am getting to the point where i'm ready to start using another service to get my music from now on. I've noticed that others here have the same error message, but they are using Windows Vista. I'm having this problem on Windows XP.
Any help would be very appreciated.

I purchased and downloaded Acrobat Pro XI. After the pop-up requesting the language I got a message "The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists..."

The full message was "The installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify this is a valid Windows Installer package."

OK, I got around this error by extracting the files to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe Acrobat XI"
Now I get a different error "1325.kstanwood is not a valid short file name". I'm not certain why it's even trying to create such a file name.

download and install "right click take ownership"
http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/add-take-ownership-to-explorer-right-click-me nu-in-vista/
locate the adobe folder inside the programdata folder, mine was located at "C:\programdata\Adobe"
right click the adobe folder, and take ownership of the folder.
Don't know if this will fix other peoples problems, but it fixed mine.
