SCVMM 2022 Install failure – MSSQL database connectivity issue
Hello, I’m trying to install SCVMM 2022 on a brand new Windows Server 2019 system. The SQL database is SQL Server 2016 version 13.0.6435.1. The SQL server is already in use in production with numerous other databases, using the default instance MSSQLSERVER
No issues with prerequisites when I use the Wizard setup.exe, but things have failed so many times now I have switched to using the CLI install method.
I pre-create a new database on the SQL server, named VirtualManagerDB, per the instructions here. The account I want to use as a service account is called COMPANYCitrixRunAS – it is not a SQL admin account, but it does have dbo privileges just on this one Database. The instructions do not state that I need to give this service account any higher level permissions on the SQL server itself like sysadmin, etc.
Then I setup VMServer.ini to do a CLI install with the following parameters, following this guide:
[OPTIONS]
ProductKey=<redacted>
UserName=Citrix-VMM
CompanyName=Company
SqlInstanceName=MSSQLSERVER$
SqlMachineName=sql1.company.com
CreateNewSqlDatabase=0
SqlDatabaseName=VirtualManagerDB
SqlServerPort=1433
RemoteDatabaseImpersonation=1
CreateNewLibraryShare=1
LibrarySharePath=C:VMMLibrary
LibraryShareDescription=Citrix VMM Library Files
VmmServiceLocalAccount=0
TopContainerName=OU=VMM,OU=Distributed Key Management,OU=Service,DC=company,DC=com
Upgrade=0
Then, I use the following install script:
setup.exe /server /i /f C:temp2022VMServer.ini /sqldbadmindomain company /sqldbadminName CitrixRunAs /sqldbadminpassword redacted /vmmservicedomain company /vmmserviceusername CitrixRunAs /vmmserviceuserpassword redacted /iacceptsceula
and follow along in the log file located at “C:ProgramDatavmmlogsSetupWizard.log”
Things progress fine until right after the Windows Features get checked for.

Why are the logs mentioning a MSSQL$ entry? That looks like a SQL instance but I very specifically told it to use the default MSSQLSERVER instance. That bit “Ensure service MSSQL$ is started by running “services.msc”, find the service, and then verify that the service is started. —> Microsoft.VirtualManager.DB.CarmineSqlException: Unable to connect to the VMM database because of a general database failure.” is what shows up in the GUI install attempts.
When I go to the SQL server and I look at the contents of VirtualManagerDB database – I can see that new tables were created by the installer. So the installer was able to reach into the correct instance, and the correct database and modify it. But apparently it was not able to modify it enough to be satisfied.
On the SQL server, when I look in services.msc I can see that “SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER)” is a service that is running. Obviously. It’s what’s running my dozen other databases on this server. But there is no “MSSQL” service and I don’t understand why VMM thinks there should be because I explicitly told it to to use MSSQLSERVER!
What could the problem possibly be? I do not think I missed any setup steps.

Repeating a task
Hi all,
We are currently using Power Automate to create on-prem users. The problem we’ve hit is that the UPN suffix is blank (different issue).
To get around this, I’ve made a PowerShell script that runs every 5 mins on a scheduled task. As I’ve found this evening, if there is more than one user that is missing a UPN suffix, it fails.
$LocalUsers = Get-ADUser -Filter {UserPrincipalName -notlike ‘*@*’} -Properties UserPrincipalName -ResultSetSize $null
$UPN = $LocalUsers.UserPrincipalName + “@tww-lab.co.uk”
Set-ADUser -Identity $LocalUsers.SamAccountName -UserPrincipalName $UPN
We want the script to find an entry missing a UPN suffix and correct it to Firstname.Lastname @ UPN
Is there a way we can do this or is there a better way to do this?

Difficulty connecting to datasource in PowerApps
There are a couple of ways to connect to a datasource. One method is to create a Canvas App with the Datasource itself is part of the creation process of the Canvas App. I will describe my experience with this method soon. Another method is to create a blank canvas app from scratch, then add a form to that canvas app and then connect to thea torm using your shareport List (or Microsoft List) as its Data Source.
When I tried the first method I have mentioned here, when it came time to connect to my Microsoft List data, I got a page describing a problem. At the top of the page was this information:
(image of page data)
The session id is: 89fce4a0-089b-11ef-9c95-17cf2d841331
I have used it as a search string in the suggested support site but I did not get any results.
And now for the second method of connecting a data source to a Power App which is to start with a blank Canvas App and then add a database connection to the app by way of a form. This method is described in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H11RFxiDltw which I followed. But when it came time to add the connection, I got this connection waithing message that has now been on the screen for a couple of hours.
(please wait)
I guess there is nothing to do but wait. It is a good thing it is Friday. Maybe by Monday it will have loaded and made the connecion. I am thinking that perhaps since there were many columns in the Microsoft List, it will take a while. But it was not exactly an exhorbanant number of columns. It was around 30 or so. But not thirty thousand. Is it normal for it to take hours? I have seen some strange things in the software world like this where, eventhough computations happen at virtually the speed of light, no one accounted for nested loops and the exponential nature of processes like this.
What are your suggestion? Does the session id, 89fce4a0-089b-11ef-9c95-17cf2d841331, mean anthing? How can I make use of i t?
This is part of the low-code or n-code world. Is there any way I can break that and actually use code to access the Microsoft List?
Is the problem in part due to the fact that I am using a Microsoft List as a database instead of an actual SharePoint List?
Is there a soultion or another option that I can not imagine, think of, or exists but I am not aware of it?
I made a recording just in case one might not believe that this is taking a long time to process. Here is at least the first 40 minutes.

Installing Hyper V on a DC to migrate DC roles to VMs
Hi all,
I have taken on a small side project to get more experience in sysadmin. I had configured a server with Server 2022 installed and configured Active Directory before moving the server to where it needs to be.
I also started preparing for my AZ800 exam alongside it and just discovered its best practice to have 2 DCs, and to use Hyper V to host them. I want to be able to do that, but, as I said, I have already configured AD for it, with the GPs as well.
What I want to know is, if I installed Hyper V Manager on that server, can I create a VM for another DC and have it replicate AD data to it, transfer FSMO roles to the VM, and the demote that server so it only acts as a host for Hyper V VMs and then create another DC VM.
Is that possible, or would it be better to just reinstall Windows and try it again?
Thanks again, and sorry if I sound like I dont know what I am talking about.

How to share a dotm file with VBA with design mode off
Hello all,
I have created a tool using word and VBA where a user selects the name of a company and it creates a letterhead based on data in an excel sheet.
Briefly, there are three files involved.
1) The creator tool – a word document with a create letterhead button which loads the name of the companies from an excel sheet
2) The company data excel sheet which the creator tool uses to find the company name and the other associated information that then gets passed to
3) The master template word file – which is used to define where each piece of information from the excel sheets go.
The users interact with the creator tool and end up with a new document with the right letterhead and address in it.
All of the users of the tool are in the same organisation using M365. Users install the tool by copying two files to the C drive and the creator file to their desktop.
The issue arises when the user opens the creator word document for the first time. Unfortunately I can’t seem to find a way to prevent the document from opening with Design mode switched on, which makes the button on the document inactive.
I’m looking to simplify the rollout without users having to enable the deliver ribbon, turn off design mode and then save – so any tips would be appreciated!
Thanks!

Multiple If formulas with conditions
I am in need a formula that will look at multiple conditions for the data I have. My sample data is below.
If the value in A is the same, and the value in B is the same, then join the values in C and put them in D. The formula I have for that function works (=IF(A2=A3, IF(A3=A4, TEXTJOIN(“,”,TRUE,C2,C3,C4),TEXTJOIN(“,”,TRUE,C2,C3)),””).
What I need the complete formula to do is this:
If the value in A is the same, and the value in B is the same, then join the values in C and put them in D, but if the value in A does not match, then copy the value from C2 to D2.
I hope I explained that well enough. I’m thinking it needs to be a nested formula, but I cannot figure it out. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Can I split information in a field?
I have a cell that contains this: 00001/ / /29100/ I would like 2 separate numeric cells, one cell that would contain 00001 and the second cell that contains 29100 omitting the slash marks completely.
Can this be done? I don’t have much experience with Excel.
Thank you for your help.

Email Delay Today
Hello, our company is based in midwest and seeing if anyone is having issues with outbound mail to EOP? We are hybrid and our internal exchange server queues are clear. Also, our spam filtering service is reporting healthy. Otherwise, running a test on the outbound connector to EOP is producing errors and also seeing email delays thru our logging. Microsoft support states their may be issues on their side but nothing has been posted to 365 Health.
Thanks

Integrate the Microsoft.BingAds.UETSdk into our UWP product
Hello,
We are currently trying to integrate the UET (Universal Event Tracking) SDK ([Microsoft.BingAds.UETSdk](https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.BingAds.UETSdk)) into our UWP product. We have been following the documentation closely, but we encounter an issue as soon as we implement the step “Import all of the .NET Native / CoreCLR props” from [this guide](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/advertising/guides/windows-app-uet-sdk?view=bingads-13#cpluspluswinrt). After adding this step, when we attempt to submit our UWP package to the Windows Store, we receive the error: “You cannot submit pre-compiled .NET Native packages.”
For testing purposes, we created an entirely blank project and followed the instructions step by step:
1. Blank project (UetTestBlank.rar and UetTestBlank_1.0.60.0_x86_x64_arm_arm64) – successfully submitted to the Windows Store.
2. Added only the .dll without modifying project settings (UetTestUetPkgOnly_1.0.60.0_x86_x64_arm.appxbundle and UetTestUetPkgOnly.rar) – successfully submitted to the Windows Store.
3. Modified the project by adding “Import all of the .NET Native / CoreCLR props” (UetTestUetPkgWithProjectFileMod.rar and UetTestUetPkgWithProjectFileMod_1_0_60_0_x86_x64_arm_arm64_appxbundle) – submission failed with the error: UetTestUetPkgWithProjectFileMod_1_0_60_0_x86_x64_arm_arm64_appxbundle 3.2 MB, “Package acceptance validation error: You cannot submit pre-compiled .NET Native packages. Please upload the Microsoft Store appxupload file and try again.”
You can find all the project files here: [Dropbox link](https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/d6hr4k24z7sybzg6172r6/AOqBb_2zMBUPCuKgxrmbwhU?rlkey=1pzpak1l1aqcwuejapmmllpid&st=o2wmzce5&dl=0)
Could there be any inaccuracies in the documentation, or does anyone have experience working with this library who could provide some guidance or examples?
Thank you!

Command Line Development of WebForms with IISExpress
Hi there
Is there a viable workflow for continued development of an existing ASP dot NET Web Forms application just using the command line, a text editor and a web browser, without running Visual Studio (at least not all the time)?
Since Web Forms do not run on dot Net Core, a Windows machine (physical or virtual) is required. The work is being done on a non-Windows machine, and connecting in to the Windows machine via Remote Desktop to run Visual Studio is not a preferred option (though it may be the only viable one, and is what I am doing currently).
In principle working via the terminal, some form of file sync or share, and a browser is possible and I have done it with SSH, MSBuild.exe and IIS Express, but what is missing is all the output from the Output window of Visual Studio. There are various ways of logging that could be set up, but what I like about the Output window is it tells exceptions, as well as debug messages, and I am pretty lost without it.
Any recommendations, other than give up, and keep using Visual Studio?
