Description
Current Situation
- When installing the Universal Agent on Windows, if you have create the service as a specific user instead of as the default local system account, and that user's password has a double-quote in it, the installation will fail at the service creation step with a "the syntax of the command is incorrect" error.
Desired Behavior
- It should be possible to specify Windows service passwords that include a double quote.
Maintainer Note
- We take care of this issue. At the same time let me add a warning: service account and password that are specified during installation are added in clear text to the installer response file (.xml) that can be used for later re-installation.
- It is therefore fine to specify the service account/password during installation with dev environments. For more compliant environments you should always manually specify the service account with the Windows Service Panel after installation.
