Reproducible error adding Admin user #8

Closed WorkinItOut closed 1 year ago

WorkinItOut commented 6 years ago

I've seen this error a few times on different AWS quick starts so while this pertains to the rdgateway quick start it also impacts others.

Issue: When specifying the password for the Admin account during the setup, certain special symbols will be interpreted as commands rather than as password characters.

Ex1: Command invoked: Command b-create-admin (net user /add Admin abc123<123ABC /y) failure: Command b-create-admin output: The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.

Ex2: Command invoked: Command b-create-admin (net user /add Admin abc123&123ABC /y) failure: '123ABC' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

Thanks, K

This is a stale issue. cfn-init has been replaced by an SSM document and therefore the "b-create-admin" command is no longer in use.
