Getting error trying to build windows_7

[rajeshr264]

I have attached my edited version of windows_7.json, that uses WinRM.

I did not change the Autounattended.xml but added it anyway. I also did not change any of the other script files.

windows_7_json_xml.zip

Here is the log:

Rajeshs-Work-MacBook-Pro:packer-windows rajesh$ packer build windows_7.json virtualbox-iso output will be in this color.

[rajeshr264]

it was related to setting the 'winrm_host'. after removing it, the error went away.
