Azure.RequestFailedException: The value for one of the HTTP headers is not in the correct format

When working on Azure Functions with Azurite as blob storage emulator on my local computer, I encountered the following error:

Exception: Azure.RequestFailedException: The value for one of the HTTP headers is not in the correct format.

The detailed error message looks like the following:

Environment

The following list are the environment I am working on, which generate the above exception:

• Azurite: 3.14.0
• Azure Function project package versions: 
  

  <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker" Version="1.6.0" />
  <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Extensions.ApplicationInsights" Version="1.0.0-preview4" />
  <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Sdk" Version="1.3.0" OutputItemType="Analyzer" />
  <PackageReference Include="Microsoft.Azure.Functions.Worker.Extensions.Storage" Version="5.0.0" />
  <PackageReference Include="Azure.Storage.Blobs" Version="12.11.0" />

Resolve the problem

The issue occurred because my blob client package version is not compatible with my Azurite version. Thus to resolve this issue, I upgraded my Azurite version to the latest by using the following command:

npm install -g azurite@3.18.0
