Error Failed to delete the current configuration file

Yesterday I was able to have my test VM pull a config from my test server with no problem. Today I expanded it to a few more test boxes and now everything if Fubar!
All of them get the error about failing to delete the current configuration. I build the configurations with the same script as yesterday.

I don’t think that error is actually causing you any trouble. If you haven’t yet successfully applied a DSC configuration to these machines, there won’t be a current configuration file (which is current.mof, stored in %SystemRoot%\System32\Configuration\ ). As you can see from the log, after that error occurs, it goes ahead and fetches the configuration from your pull server and attempts to apply it.

The last 4 errors in the text, on the other hand, are a problem. That means one of your “User” resources in the configuration isn’t applying correctly.

Thanks that got me pointed in the right direction. I had not explicitly set the accounts to Disabled = $false and I guess a space does not count as a special char for password complexity.
