}Here is what I started from first. I went to AdminCP to install the addon, but it failed to install. Then I decided to use the second CLI to install the add-on again, and still same failed
You received the error message above because VaultWiki is having trouble being installed using XenForo's batch installer. It looks like the batch installer has changed in more recent XenForo versions, and VaultWiki's installer needs to be updated for it to work again.
Your addon installation still has an issue on XF 2.3.6

define('VW_INSTALL', 2);I have encountered and fixed an installation error in VaultWiki while using XenForo 2.3.6. Because it is an issue from Symfony’s new requirement that Process::__construct() must receive an array instead of a string (as of XF 2.3+). VaultWiki's installer still passes a command string, caused by:
Symfony\Component\Process\Process::__construct(): Argument #1 ($command) must be of type array, string givenif (strpos($message, 'Argument #2') !== false && strpos($file, 'vw') !== false)Argument #1 ($command) must be of type array
