Powershell New-ADUser error handling password complexity (ActiveDirectory module) -



Powershell New-ADUser error handling password complexity (ActiveDirectory module) -

i'm trying create project that's creating users in active directory using powershell. though, problem let's run this:

new-aduser test1 -givenname test -surname test -accountpassword (convertto-securestring "abc" -asplaintext -force)

as know "abc" not meet password requirement, though adds user anyways without password in project not acceptable, wan't if fails in parameter should output error without running other parameters @ all! i'd preferably in 1 line don't have create scripts it, phone call in application. tried multiple parameters such -whatif , try, catch! kind of sources/answers highly appreciated!

to clarify on original post, homecoming error:

"new-aduser : password not meet length, complexity, or history requirement of domain.".

the user business relationship created, disabled.

specifying -erroraction stop on new-aduser cmdlet not sufficient prevent user business relationship beingness created.

to prevent user business relationship beingness created must set global erroractionpreference (and utilize erroraction parameter):

$erroractionpreference = "stop"

if wish can wrap around new-aduser cmdlet impacts cmdlet , not rest of script, so:

$existingeap = $erroractionpreference $erroractionpreference = "stop" new-aduser ... -erroraction stop $erroractionpreference = $existingeap

for more finish example, assuming have simple $userarray of samaccountnames generic accounts, might seek this:

$existingeap = $erroractionpreference $erroractionpreference = "stop" $userarray = "test1","test2","test3" foreach($username in $userarray) { seek { new-aduser $username -givenname test -surname test -accountpassword (convertto-securestring "abc" -asplaintext -force) -erroraction stop $created += @($username) } grab { $notcreated += @($username) } } $erroractionpreference = $existingeap write-output "created $created" write-output "could not create: $notcreated"

this works me in environment.
