Hi All,

I've seen several older posts in the community regarding this issue:

Running through setup assist, creating a computer account results in failure with the standard " account could not be created with name and password" message.

 

Has anyone come up with a solid workaround or fix for this?

 

Things I've tried per community recommendations:

- Removing any configuration profiles involving password policy, filevault, lockscreen. (currently have 0 config profiles)

-Toggle on/off Location Services & Information Transfer in General/Setup Assistant Options

- Creating a local administrator account before setup assistant (undesirable for workflow, but tried anyway)

 

Any other tips or tricks I can try?

New Jamf Admin, so apologies for any ignorance.

From my experience, it has always been one of the packages being installed that is configured in the ADE configuration that causes the issue 99% of the time. Usually Jamf Connect. I install it after enrollment instead however I experienced the issue again then it works 99 times after. So who really knows.
