Configuration Files

The relevant JSON-parameter is "ADServiceUser":

...
"ConfigData": {
        "Credentials": {
            "ADServiceUser": {
                "UserName": "URI\\s_ags_portal",
                "Password": "$PwVxRf/#J`Q|ZE"
            }                 
        },
...

Expected Behavior

The AD-User should be used as the User-store configuration user.

Actual Behavior

The Portal-configuration fails.

Steps to Reproduce

Use a service-user with the specific password above.
