SQL Azure – Install Module Fails with Error

Recently while I was working with a client who hired me to help them with Comprehensive Database Performance Health Check, told me that they need help with an error related to Install Module on SQL Azure. Let us learn how we can fix the error.

When I tried to run the command following command it gave me an error.

Install-Module Azure

The error is

A command with name ‘Get-AzureStorageContainerAcl’ is already available on this system. This module ‘Azure’ may override the existing commands. If you still want to install this module ‘Azure’, use -AllowClobber parameter.

Well, the best part is that the error itself is giving us an idea about how to fix the error.

I ran the command with AllowClobber and its module got installed successfully.

Install-Module Azure -AllowClobber

Well, that’s it for today. Feel free to reach out to me on Twitter if you have further questions.
