Issue processing Windows Server 2016 full & core images #108

Closed gijs007 closed 4 years ago

gijs007 commented 4 years ago

I'm experiencing an issue with the creation of the Windows Server 2016 full & core images. I'm using the same Windows Server 2016 RTM refresh ISO as usual, but to be safe I've re-downloaded it from the Microsoft website.

From the log files, it seems that there is an incorrect parameter being parsed by the AzS POC config script. See the output below. I'll email the log files, when I'm back at work tomorrow.

INFO : Closing Windows image... INFO : Closing ISO... INFO : Done.

Hey - I haven't seen this before, but I'll test in my environment on a fresh 1908 ASDK and let you know if there's an issue. I've typically tested with the WS Eval ISO from the public Microsoft website. If you can email me the WindowsImage logs, i can take a look but I suspect there won't be much more info than what is above.

To close this out, it seems to be an issue with 1908+, based on Windows Server 2019, and the use of the USB drive as the path for the -downloadPath. Using a local drive has solved the issue.
