I'm suddenly getting this too. TFS 2017 Update 3. This was working before, and as far as I know, nothing has changed.

C:\Users\Paul.Abrams\Source\Repos\vsts-team-calendar>node_modules.bin\tfx exten sion install --service-url http://hostname:8080/tfs --publisher mypub --extension-id my-extension-id --accounts http://hostname:8080/tfs/collectionName

I'm pretty sure InstalledExtensions IS registered in the database, since tfx extension publish works fine, and the database says it's installed, too:

DECLARE @return_value int

EXEC    @return_value = [dbo].[prc_GetServiceVersion]
        @serviceName = N'InstalledExtensions'

SELECT  'Return Value' = @return_value

GO

ServiceName Version MinVersion InstalledExtensions 8 8

I figured out my problem, it's because I was passing the server url for ServiceUrl instead of the collection url.

Usually the ServiceUrl is of the form http://server:8080/tfs, but in the case of tfx extension install it must be in the form http://server:8080/tfs/COLLECTION. This is not at all clear in the help files.
