I updated the folders sample file "Sample_WS2016_NanoDomain.xml" as follows

labpath="H:\Hyper-V\LabBuilder\vm\NANOTEST.COM" isopath="H:\Hyper-V\LabBuilder\ISOs\" vhdpath="H:\Hyper-V\LabBuilder\VHDs\"

When I run the build, it looks somwhere else and uses some paths that I don't know why such as (and et the end I get always the error emplate Windows Server 2016 Datacenter Full' could not be found)

I'm having the same issue with the server 2019 example xml (Sample_WS2019_DCandDHCPandCA). `New-LabException : The Template Source VHD 'c:\MyLab\VHDFiles\Windows Server 2019 Datacenter.vhdx' in Template 'Template Windows Server 2019 Datacenter' could not be found. At C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\LabBuilder\1.2.0\LabBuilder.psm1:9097 char:17

The log files contain nothing more than what is already printed in the PS window.

I couldn't find seperate Core and Full server images at microsoft. The latest image I downloaded from MS is: 17763.3650.221105-1748.rs5_release_svc_refresh_SERVER_EVAL_x64FRE_en-us.iso

I tried replacing the template names for the isos to match my iso name. I tried the same iso name in both templates. Everything that I have tried has resulted in the same or similar error message

I created all to folders as instructed. I checked the Install.wim files and I also have been unable to find the Server Core and Server Full ISOs. I checked the ISOs that I have and the WIM files contain; `Details for image : Install.wim

ok Different ISOs contain different "Edition" names. I had to mount the ISO and run the following cmd to get the actual names from my ISO Replace "D" with the mounted drive letter assigned to your ISO

DISM /Get-WimInfo /WimFile:"D:\sources\install.esd"

Part of the output. The name must be all of the name after "Name:" for the edition in the TemplateVHD section.
