I'm starting to become a big fan of "Desired State Configuration" (DSC). Great work so far, guys!

Im using the "xActiveDirectory" script (https://gallery.technet.microsoft.com/scriptcenter/xActiveDirectory-f2d573f3) published a few weeks ago. As soon as the VM is deployed in Azure, I get the following error:

Job {860932CF-ECE2-11E4-80BB-0003FF54BC14} : This event indicates that a non-terminating error was thrown when DSCEngine was executing Set-TargetResource on MSFT_xADDomain DSC resource. FullyQualifiedErrorId is Test.VerifyDcPromoCore.DCPromo.General.77,Microsoft.DirectoryServices.Deployment.PowerShell.Commands.InstallADDSForestCommand. ErrorMessage is Verification of prerequisites for Domain Controller promotion failed. The specified argument 'DataBasePath' was not recognized.

As I can see so far, my machine has been become a DC so I dont understand this error. I really appreciate any help.

Thank you.

You need to make sure the domain credentials you are passing to the DSC resource are correct. I've seen this issue and have confirmed that if I don't pass the correct $DomainAdministratorCredential I receive the same error.
