My SCA was working fine until 2 days back. Now all of a sudden it throws the below error when i click on deploy from Visual Studio. Am connecting to Azure SQL and my connection is through AD authentication from visual studio.

Error An error occurred during script deployment. Output from SQL Server follows.

Hello @VKh ,

Thanks for reaching out and sorry that you're having trouble with SQL Change Automation. We haven't come across this error before with SQL Change Automation but from the error it appears that the library called adalsql.dll is either missing or corrupted. Can you check if this ,dll exists in both C:\Windows\SysWOW64 and C:\Windows\System32​? If they don't exist, can you try installing the library from the link in the error?

If they do exists, you might be able to resolve the issue following the troubleshooting steps outlined in the two posts below.
