Hello,
I have a box loaded with 2012 R2 as a domain controller. On that same box I installed another instance of 2012 R2 in HyperV. Within the instance of HyperV I am trying to install the Essentials role. The role installs ok but then fails during the setup process, it reaches 87% and then “An error occurred while configuring Windows Server Essentials. Please try again. “
I have tried the common fixes such as keying in the credentials of a domain account with admin rights but not being the default administrators account, I have also followed the steps to try and add <Domain>\ServerAdmin$ to logon as a service but no avail.
Can someome please advise what else I can try? thanks
