I was not able to get the module to function. It looks like the module should probably work if the underlying dsc resources worked properly. As far as I can tell we have vendered in a version of a dsc resource called dsc_userrightsassignment
that has a bug. It is unable to assign rights to local administrator account. When searching for that account to give it rights, it uses a set of functions defined in a file called SecurityPolicyResourceHelpers.psm1
. We are currently vendoring version 2.2.0 of that dsc resource module. Latest is 2.5.0, and the diff (You will have to search for DSCResources/SecurityPolicyResourceHelper/SecurityPolicyResourceHelper.psm1
to find the file diff in question.) has a lot of improved code including proper error handling which would most likely solve the error.
The error in question prevents the run from completing.
