Password needs changing #1

Open Renkas opened 10 years ago

Renkas commented 10 years ago

Hi,

the box is not booting up as the Windows password needs changing.

You could probably change the box so that the password would never expire.

Had the same issue, and this depends on the opentable/win-2008r2-standard-amd64-nocm. I temporally fixed this way:

  1. Started the virtual machine with graphic environment (in my case, via the Virtual Box panel).
  2. Changed the password. A complex one is required.
  3. Changed the password policy. "Password must meet complexity requirements" must be disabled.
  4. Change the password back to "vagrant"
  5. Shut down the machine. Then you can vagrant up and this time the VM will be provisioned.

:+1: Great workaround. But is it possible to fix it inside box?

giovyloca commented 9 years ago

I don't find a way to report issues on vagrantcloud. One possible way is creating a new box and pointing the Vagrantfile to it. I'll look into this.

Seems to have been fixed in the box? See https://vagrantcloud.com/opentable/boxes/win-2008r2-standard-amd64-nocm
