Error When Installing cab File in Solution Workbench

When I go to install solution and then select the cab file from my downloads folder the line where the file path should be stays blank but the validation field is filled in. When I go ahead and click install it says the file path is blank. I have tried recreating the solution and just pasting the file path into the blank line but neither seem to work.

Here is what it looks like:

Here is the error:

Application Error

Has anyone seen this?

Try Clear the cache and run the solution wb form in Base Mode.

What is base mode? I cleared cache and tried again with the same error.

Try moving the Cab file out of your downloads folder?

Guessing

No luck, but definitely worth a shot haha.

Next guess is try setting the Deployment folder to something local i.e. C:\Epicor

Still no luck. I’ll try to restart my computer in a bit.

Received a response from Epicare on this. Apparently it is because Production is on version 2023.1 and Pilot is on 2023.2. I hope this is not a common occurrence since that makes testing environments much less useful, but there is the answer for anyone running into this. Thanks to those who responded.
