Cannot Create Windows Azure Active Directory Managment Agent...

Greetings,

I'm having difficulty creating a Windows Azure Active Directory Management Agent. When I select Windows Azure Active Directory (Microsoft) and click Next, I receive the following error (screenshot attached):

Unable to retrieve configuration parameters from the extension: Value does not fall within the expected range.

Also, if I try to simply install an Extensible Connectivity 2.0 agent, select Microsoft.Azure.ActiveDirectory.Connector.dll, refresh the interface, and select Next, I receive:

The extension could not be loaded.

I'm suspecting that the .dll is bad, but I've downloaded and installed the AADConnector.msi twice, so I'm not sure my next move.

Happy Holidays!

Hello,

can not help on that specific error but keep in mind that using WAAD connector is not recommended for new implementations.

You should try AADSync/Connect even if you have FIM already in your environment.
So since there will be a lot of changes in the future to AzureAD those will possibly only supported on AADConnect, there are no more updates to the FIM AAD Connector.

For example you can not enable user write-back, if you enable it in Azure AD you will not be able to use "older" sync solutions like DirSync/AADSync and WAAD Connector.
(This is stated in the Release Notes of Preview 2 of AADConnect)

I would only use WAAD connector if the scenario is currently not supported be either DirSync,AADSync,AADConnect like for example multi-tenant scenarios.
