Dear community
I have recently installed three vm in azure:
- An Windows Server Essential Experience, with FS role
- An Windows Server 2012 R2, with web proxy application role
- An Windows Server 2012 R2, with DirSync (tried out a server with and without AD installed (not promoted as domain controller..))
Installing the latest DirSync from office 365 portal is not an problem.
I have an 365 user with admin rights for my tenant (username@domain.onmicrosoft.com) where the new domain is placed.
I have an AD user (DOMAIN\dirsync) which is member of:
- Administrators
- Domain Admins
- Enterprise Admins
- Group Policy Creator Owners
- Schema Admins
I am connecting to the third VW with a domain user, that have been added as local machine admin.
Running configuration wizard I am adding username@domain.onmicrosoft.com for Azure admin and DOMAIN\dirsync for AD credentials
The configuration stops with following error: "Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation" and from the event viewer the last signs of life from Directory Synchronization is a warning "Resetting password for user MSOL..."
I have been studying others alike issue, where it more or less always comes down to different solutions around GPO, but I cannot nail what exactly will solve the issue.
Hope to find some help.
