Install problems (feature is not available)

[jpkelly_2]

I am currently running Universal Forwarder 6.6.3 on a Windows 2012 R2 instance. I am attempting to upgrade to 7.1.1, but halfway through the install I am prompted with "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable. Click OK to try again or enter an alternate path to a folder containing the installation package splunkforwarder-6.5.3...."

6.5.3? That is not installed, I currently have 6.6.3 installed, and am trying to go to 7.1.1, so of course that is not 6.5.3

WTF?

why the language?
verify first you have permissions to upgrade.
are you doing it manually? script? tool running the upgrade job?
do you really need to upgrade the forwarder?
in any case, read here all the way through
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Forwarder/7.1.1/Forwarder/UpgradetheWindowsuniversalforwarder

hope it helps

Not sure what you mean by "the language" -- So I guess I will ignore that?

I am attempting to do it many ways. Via script -- fails, manually using the GUI -- fails. Again, the version I am upgrading from is 6.6.3 -- so asking for a 6.5.3 msi seems odd

This is the command I am trying to run

msiexec /i "splunkforwarder-7.1.1-8f0ead9ec3db-x64-release.msi" DEPLOYMENT_SERVER="splunk-deploy2.XXXX:8089" AGREETOLICENSE=YES

"the language" referred to "WTF?" in your question
try to take a look at the rollback log that your fresh install supposed to provide
