WinRM error after using the xPendingReboot resource

[yohanb]

Hi,

I'm joining a domain using DSC after I have to reboot the machine afterwards. I'm using the xPendingReboot resource from the XComputerManagement module. I'm getting this error from Vagrant after DSC reboots the machine:

Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi @yohanb, I haven't seen that one before.

Looks like there are a few other bugs related to this in upstream packages:

• WinRM::HTTP::HttpNegotiate::WinRMWebServiceError hashicorp/vagrant#7446
• uninitialized constant WinRM::HTTP::HttpNegotiate::WinRMWebServiceError WinRb/WinRM#203
• WinRM V2 WinRb/WinRM#191

Might be related?

I suppose it's possible that WinRM just doesn't like the restart?

I have not seen this error, but some similar.

I think the join domain, set the required reboot in dsc itself and you need no xPendingReboot. But you need to configure your machine to do a reboot (I solved this currently with something like: https://github.com/mefellows/vagrant-dsc/blob/master/development/reboot/Vagrantfile#L4)

What happens if you run after the reboot has finished a vagrant provision? I had some boxes where after a domain join the vagrant user does no longer works (got a timeout). I never inspected this in the deep, just use a other box. I used the mwrock\windows2016 box to join a domain and it works.

Can your share your vagrant and dsc file?

@StefanSchoof sure! I've obviously removed any account info from the files.

I will look at it, but this may take some time.

[StefanSchoof]

I tried to reproduce and I do not get the error. I run Win10, Vagrant 1.9.1, Virtualbox 5.1.12.
