Horizon JMP config not accepting UEM credentials

Hi All,

Just a trap that I have spent a bit of time debugging while configuring UEM for JMP on horizon

Using Horizon 7.5.2 with JMP server 7.5.2 you try to add a user to manage UEM and it keeps failing with

"The UNC path appears to be invalid. Please modify and try again."

or

"Could not process your request. Please try again later"

Look in the JMP logs on the jmp server and you get

This is because it can't handle complex passwords.

I changed the password for my service account to something that didn't have special characters and it worked.

Good luck all

Tom
