dread Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 The install stops and complains about the admin password. Looking at the log file it reports this error"The Unattended Setup parameter "adminpassword" in section "guiunattended" is missing or invalid."I searched but could not find anything. I tried editing my WINNT.SIF file and change the AdminPassword line but nothing helped. Here is what I have tried[GuiUnattended]AdminPassword="xxx"EncryptedAdminPassword=Yes[GuiUnattended]AdminPassword=xxxEncryptedAdminPassword=YesI am not using autologin.
dread Posted February 19, 2009 Author Posted February 19, 2009 remove both those password parts? I don't get it you have to put the Administrator password there right?
IcemanND Posted February 19, 2009 Posted February 19, 2009 You have EncryptedAdminPassword set to yes. Is the password that is set encrypted via the setup manager?
IcemanND Posted February 23, 2009 Posted February 23, 2009 If you put in the password then remove the EncryptedAdminPassword setting, this setting tells setup that the password contained in AdminPassword has been encrypted and this is done by setupmgr.
dread Posted February 23, 2009 Author Posted February 23, 2009 Oh ok I see now ty. If I encrypt it, I have to use the setupmgr.
