Can't stop instance

I would like to delete and recreate my database before running tests.

var localDb = new SqlLocalDbApi();

const string InstanceName = "myDb";

var instance = localDb.GetInstanceInfo(InstanceName);

if (instance.Exists)
{
   if (instance.IsRunning)
   {
      instance.Manage().Stop(); << Exception here
   }

   localDb.DeleteInstance(InstanceName);
}

Message: MartinCostello.SqlLocalDb.SqlLocalDbException : Failed to stop SQL LocalDB instance ‘myDb’. ---- MartinCostello.SqlLocalDb.SqlLocalDbException : Unexpected error occurred inside a LocalDB instance API method call. See the Windows Application event log for error details.

Windows API call LogSqlDiagRec returned error code: 0. Windows system error message is: The operation completed successfully. Reported at line: 3900. [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Cannot initialize SSPI package

“stop” works from the command line.

Thanks for the response. It doesn’t matter because I’m only using LocalDb on a build server that is reset for every build.

This appears to be an issue with the specific machine installation of SQL LocalDB itself, rather than this library.

I’m afraid I don’t know what’s wrong that’s making the native SQL LocalDB Instance API return an non-success status code, this library is just seeing that and throwing the exception up to the call site.
