Problem: 

When installing Centrify Direct Audit version 3.5.2 for evaluation(installing SQL Server express 2016), the error below is seen:
 
error seen when Direct audit fails to install SQL server express.

 
Cause:

The SQL installer is a self-extracting executable file(exe) and the self-extraction fails if the target extraction folder results into a long path. e.g. following path is too long,

             C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\zip\Centrify-Infrastructure-Services-18.11-mgmt-win64\Centrify-Infrastructure-Services-18.11-mgmt-win64\DirectAudit\setup.exe
 

Workaround:

Please  shorten the path by extracting the zip file to C:\ , the installer will work just fine, for example;

          C:\Centrify-Infrastructure-Services-18.11-mgmt-win64\DirectAudit\setup.exe

OR:

Please install Centrify Direct Audit with using the ISO file at the Centrify download center: 
       https://centrify.force.com/support/CentrifyDownload

It looks like this:

Solution:
