Hello,
did you try to install the setup by command line ...

msiexec.exe /i "C:\example.msi" /L*V "C:\package.log"

Hi,
Where did you check the MSI log? I followed the same page to enable MSI log via registry modification.

And navigate to MSIxxx.log per created time with "%temp%" path.

Or you could also test by command like below:
msiexec /i <path_to_msi> /L*V <path_to_log>
