Local cluster installation .\DevClusterSetup.ps1 fails Waiting for Naming Service to be ready

Question

When trying to set up the local cluster the powershell script I get the following error:

Is there any way of continuing the installation or fixing the cause of this error?

Cheers,

I have completely removed the SDK and started over but I am still having the same issues. Everything boils down to the 'Connect-ServiceFabricCluster' just doesn't work at all (I have followed all of the suggestions provided).

Surely the warnings about the naming services must point to something?

Each attempt I see the following:

WARNING: Failed to contact Naming Service. Attempting to contact Failover Manager Service... 2>WARNING: Failed to connect Failover Manager Service, Attempting to contact FMM... 2>Connect-ServiceFabricCluster : A communication error caused the operation to fail. 2>At D:\Source\Play\ServiceFabricApplication\ServiceFabricApplication\Scripts\Deploy-FabricApplication.ps1:158 char:16 2>+ ...

In my case the Cluster was not running (ie no Fabric.exe processes in Task Manager).

I was able to get things working again my opening a Powershell as Admin and running:

& "$ENV:ProgramFiles\Microsoft SDKs\Service Fabric\ClusterSetup\DevClusterSetup.ps1"

After that close the powershell window and open a new one (as Admin). Then Connect-ServiceFabricCluster worked.
