Message 1: Error 2228 = Database: [2]. Unknown table '[3]' in SQL query: [4]. Error 2911 = Could not remove the folder [2].
Message 2: Error 2318 = File does not exist: [2]. Did you happen to add a Database Table in your update. I can't tell if Message 1 is coming from the Installer Tables or from your Application. Config.msi as a folder cannot be removed as a whole as it contains copies of MSI's installed on your system. You must remove the individual msi's not the folder. This usually indicates that the uninstall/upgrade process cannot find the name of the msi to uninstall or upgrade.
