The error indicated that you should not install the solution to a specific webapplication, so skip that paramter in the install.

 Install-SPSolution -Identity nameofwspfile.wsp -GACDeployment

  • As Muhammad said, if you don't want that, you will have to change the scope of the feature(s) in the solution package

Your solution has something in it which runs under farm scope, You got two options now,

Deploy your solution globally as Robert said or change scope of component scoped as farm.
