Can't install azure storage emulator, any version. I've tried all the tricks to get it working, no luck. Been googling for two days, can't seem to solve this one. My last clue was error 1603 but I can't pinpoint the problem.

Here's the full log: Log

UPDATE: Here's the partial relevant log.

Your log says CAQuietExec: Error: Cannot create database. CAQuietExec: Error 0xfffffff3: Command line returned an error. CAQuietExec: Error 0xfffffff3: CAQuietExec Failed.ivan.sim
Thanks Isim, that's the error that gets output in the console widows as well, that much I know. But why is it happening? I tried at least a 100 solutions and none seems to work.mgeric
Well, do you have something like Sql Server Express installed? Do you have permission to create databases in there? Do you see any databases when run sqllocaldb -i from your command prompt?ivan.sim
I have a sql server 2014 installed and a SQLLocalDB obviously. It won't install use any of them, always the same error. What do you mean do I have permission? I'm running the installation elevated, it shouldn't require any special permission, right? When I run sqllocaldb info, I get three instances (v11.0, MSSQLLocalDB and one other) but I can't use any of them, always the same error. Thanks for your help.mgeric
Unbelievable, the culprit for this mess was Astrill vpn client. If you have Astrill installed, there's no way of getting Storage emulator to work, I've confirmed this with several colleagues, we've found no way for the them to coexist on the same system. But as soon as you uninstall Astrill, Azure storage emulator magically starts functioning properly.mgeric

I had Astrill client installed. It seems Astrill prevents Azure storage emulator from functioning properly. As soon as I removed Astrill (uninstalled), storage emulator started functioning properly again. Tried this several times and every time it was the same. I've also confirmed this with other colleagues. Astrill just won't play nice with Azure storage emulator.
