After installing Visual Studio 2012 and Windows Azure 1.8 SDK I tried to run my old project, but without success. In that moment I realize that I have a big problem, because I will not be able to provide support for that project. I uninstall Windows Azure 1.8 SDK, installed 1.6 but without success. I tried to uninstall Visual Studio 2012 with success. After that I accessed Windows Azure web site and download Windows Azure 1.6 SDK and Windows Azure Tools 1.6 but I received an error when I tried to install Windows Azure Tools 1.6.
Error 0x80070643: Failed to install MSI package
I tried to repair Visual Studio 2010, uninstall and reinstall all the kits related to Windows Azure but with the same result when trying to install Windows Azure Tools 1.6.Error 0x80070643: Failed to install MSI package
I could not use Last Good Know Configuration because installing Visual Studio 2012 and other tools created a lot of restoring points and all of them were from today. I started to think at the “black magic solution”. Clean install of Windows on the current machine or on a virtual machine. But before this I had a great idea.What about trying to install Windows Azure Tools 1.6 using Microsoft Web Platform Installer. And surprise. I was able to install with success all my tools. In this moment I have the machine in the state that was in this morning.
About Visual Studio 2012 and Windows Azure 1.8 SDK. For now I will create a virtual machine with a cool configuration W8 + VS2012 + Windows Azure 1.8. In the future, I will install as default machine Windows 8 with VS2012, but in this moment my first priority is to offer support to my clients.
