Hello,

The error of your installer is: 

"Account already exists" 

Can you verify this does not already exists in your local users?

Regards,

Marco

@m-tiggelaar Hi Marco, the account in the local machine dont exist, the problem is that the installer create a local account and then try create a domain account and show that error. If you take a look in the log I already try with the 56 after the account name to avoid the existence of the account in the AD. The account doesnt exist in the local accounts and doesnt exist in the domain. (but I trying to creste only a local account)

Hello,

We do recommend using AD accounts during the install of SolidCP Server.

Can you confirm your logged into the server on a domain admin account and run the installer as Administrator?

Regards,

Trevor

Hi Trevor,

Yes I'm logged with a AD administrator, but we dont have any integration with the AD and we don't want the solidcp user in this AD, like in any other server I only want the local user account.

During the install we choose do not create in the AD, so the installer should create only the local user and skip the AD process. The problem is that the installation create the local user and then try to create in the AD.

Thanks,

Sérgio

Hello,

I cannot see why this would fail. Can you try with a local account to see if that makes a difference?

Regards,

Trevor
