Packer: Error in azure-arm packer elevated PowerShell provisioning
Overview of the Issue
I have problems running an azure-arm packer build with PowerShell provision scripts. It works with Packer 1.4.0, fails with 1.5.1 and the nightly build 1.5.2-dev.
Reproduction Steps
Steps to reproduce this issue
Run a packer build with azure-arm builder, the first provision script runs in elevated mode. I haven't tried to run a normal provision script yet.
Packer version
1.5.1 also tried 1.5.2 nightly from GitHub releases

Hi @StefanScherer thanks for reporting this issue. I confirmed I can reproduce the issue when using a simplified powershell provisioner config using the .WinRMPasswd variable.
{
"type": "powershell",
"elevated_user": "packer",
"elevated_password": "{{.WinRMPassword}}",
"inline": ["Write-Host \"HELLO NEW USER; random text\""]
}
Changing the the elelvated information so that the PowerShell script is run as a service account throws no error
{
"type": "powershell",
"elevated_user": "SYSTEM",
"elevated_password": "",
"inline": ["Write-Host \"HELLO NEW USER; random text\""]
}
There was a change to how the WinRMPasswd information is interpolated so I need to look a little deeper there and report back.

Hello @StefanScherer! This should be fixed by #8670 . In looking into the issue further it appears that {{ .WinRMPassword}} was elevating to an empty string causing the elevation script execution to fail. The PR changes the builder a bit to ensure that WinRMPassword always has a valid value.
There are some test binaries available via the link below if you would like to test the fix.
