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.
