Updating ESXi with Dell Custom ESXi 7.0 U3 - FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory

Hi, I'm attempting to install update Dell custom ESXi 7.0 U3 (running Dell custom ESXi 7.0.2, build 17630552).

When i run the following command, I get an error about extracting index.xml from the ZIP file. I unzipped the zip file, and the index.xml file is in the ZIP. I deleted the zip from the repository, downloaded it again from VMWare, and uploaded it to the repository and ran the command again, with the same results.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

esxcli software sources profile list -d /vmfs/volumes/60ae6080-3d4fed58-85cb-34735afa23e6/temp/VMWare-VMvisor-Installer-7.0.0.update03-19482537.x86_64-DellEMC_Customized-A04.zip

Ok, the answer was to run the command from the root, not from the subfolder.
