Good day everyone, I have an issue similar to https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/7ee69765-a375-46f9-9fbe-d458b03865a1/an-error-occurred-while-executing-a-custom-actionpopulateuserroles, where I get the _PopulateUserRoles error. Using the domain admin account in place of administrator doesnt work either. I am trying to install System Center Service Manager 2022 on Windows Server 2022. Can anyone assist? I uploaded a screenshot. Let me know if you need any more information. Thanks! 268400-capture.png

    Hi @Richard Z ,

    please check the account you are using to install SCSM is:

    • Local Admin on the SCSM Management Server
    • Sysadmin on the SQL Server hosting the SCSM DB

    Hello @Andreas Baumgarten . I decided to install SCSM on a Hyper-V VM with an account w/ Domain Admin rights, and the installation pulled off without a hitch. I think the issue was that i was installing it on a domain controller. Thanks for your help!
