Manually running tests failed on ISIS Jenkins Win7

[Samuel Jackson]

I attempted to manually run a system test on the windows 7 machine but the test failed with the following output:

C:\jenkins\workspace\is_manualtest_win7\InstallerTesting>if x == x (SET LOGGING="" )  ELSE (SET LOGGING=-l  ) 

C:\jenkins\workspace\is_manualtest_win7\InstallerTesting>if xQLresTest == x (SET REGEX=-v )  ELSE (SET REGEX=-v -R QLresTest ) 

C:\jenkins\workspace\is_manualtest_win7\InstallerTesting>C:\Python27\python InstallerTests.py -o "" -v -R QLresTest 
Starting system tests
Traceback (most recent call last):

    installer = get_installer(doInstall, useNSISWindowsInstaller)

    return MSIInstaller(do_install)

    raise RuntimeError('Unable to find installer package in "%s"' % os.getcwd())
RuntimeError: Unable to find installer package in "C:\jenkins\workspace\is_manualtest_win7\InstallerTesting"

After consulting with Owen he seems to think that installer script is somehow choosing the msi installer over the nsis installer.
