When I reinstall the AppFabric, Why I'm getting this error "AppFabric installation failed because installer MSI returned with error code : 1638".?
on windows 2012
There is no AppFabric instance in this server but it showing the similar error during installation.
I’m getting the below setup error when I run the SharePoint 2013 setup<o:p></o:p>
Setup is unable to proceed due to the following error(s):
-This product requires windows server Appfabric. install windows server Appfabric and re-run setup.
-This product requires Cumulative update package 1 for microsoft Appfabric 1.1 for windows server [KB2671763]
Please find below the error log

I tried to delete the environment variable "PSModulePath", but didn't worked.
Then I added this env variable with the following "C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\;c:\Program Files\AppFabric 1.1 for Windows Server\PowershellModules", but this is also not working.
When I am running the setup again, it is giving me the same error again and again.
What could be the problem, and how can I install it successfully in offline mode.
