PowerShell DSC & Credential, Windows Patch, Problem(s)/Issue #1763

Closed SphenicPaul closed 2 years ago

SphenicPaul commented 2 years ago

Hi @johlju

Just flagging this as this seems to have surfaced via the SqlServerDsc resources, but looks to be a wider, PowerShell DSC and Windows updates problem/issues.

We were/are seeing this error:

The password supplied to the Desired State Configuration resource DSC_SQLSetup is not valid. The password cannot be null or empty.

But looks to be the result of a Windows patch causing problems for credentials within PowerShell DSC - Related Twitter thread.

Don't think it's a problem for this project to sort, but might save anyone else having this issue, a little time.

Yes, it is being discussed by the community in the #dsc channel, Robert is there as well. Last update in the channel was that Microsoft is working on it, but I don't have any details. I suggest opening a support case with MS if this is blocking production.

The community #dsc channel in Slack and Discord is bridged. Discord keeps all chat history, Slack does not.

The build workers also have this issue so we can't release any new modules that runs integration tests, unless we disable them temporary, but rather not do that.

johlju commented 2 years ago

A fix should have been released with this weeks patches. Waiting for the build workers to get the patch, will close this after that.

The Azure DevOps build workers has gotten the patch now, that means that this issue is fixed . Closing this.
