Hi Sven,
Are you using a Private or Corporate domain network?
Please be advised that to Enable CredSSP make sure your network connection is either a private network or domain network. Afterward you may switch the network profile back to its original state.

Hi Sven,
Please be advised that you would have to try to manually enable CredSSP on the host machine and re-run the deployment script.
These are the commands to run in an elevated PowerShell console:
winrm set winrm/config/client/auth ‘@{CredSSP="true"}’
Enable-WSManCredSSP -Role Client -DelegateComputer “*.azurestack.local”-ForceRegards,

Hi Malar,
Thank you for the quick response.
I've tried to perform the commands manually. This is the output:
PS D:\Microsoft Azure Stack POC> winrm set winrm/config/client/auth '@{CredSSP="true"}'
Auth
Basic = true
Digest = true
Kerberos = true
Negotiate = true
Certificate = true
CredSSP = true PS D:\Microsoft Azure Stack POC> Enable-WSManCredSSP -Role Client -DelegateComputer "*.azurestack.local"-Force
Enable-WSManCredSSP : This command cannot be executed because the setting cannot be enabled.

When I disable the firewall, and try to run the commands you suggested I get the same output. I will restart and make sure I select private network before running the script.

Hi Malar,
Still exactly the same error. I made a log of every step I took. For practical reasons, I'm installing Azure Stack on ESXi 6.
This is the log:

What could go wrong?

Hi Sven,
Please make sure to run PowerShell in an admin context.
We see that you are attempting nested install on ESX, please be advised this configuration is not supported.

Hi Pradeep,
I'm aware that I'm running an unsupported configuration. The hardware specs are pretty steep for the poc. And fibre channel disks are not supported. By using ESX I can publish san disks to the vm to run AzureStackPOC.
However, I can't think of any reason why enabling CredSSP could fail, while running on ESX.
I will try again to install the poc. This time by connecting the ESX (and thus the vm) only to the Internet. Until now the host and the vm are connected to the local lan.
I will need some time to reconfigure the setup, though.
Regards,
Sven

Hi,
I started from scratch again. This time the Host and the vm were connected to the internet only. Exactly the same error.
Any ideas why the this setup is failing?

Hi,
Could you confirm you are running PowerShell in an admin context?

Hi Pradeep,
Yes I'm running powershell in an admin context.

Hi Sven,
Unfortunately the problem is probably tied to your running Azure Stack on ESX which is not supported in TP1.

Pradeep
