Vendor: Digital Ocean

Physical or Virtual: Cloud Droplet
Motherboard: I don't know

I uploaded the screenshot of error.

You are receiving the same (exact) error each time you try, correct?

Yes, but when I try different template I get error in different percent of installing.

Change > to |

I'm guessing you're typing on a Mac? change the keyboard layout (use menu 4), change it to something like Microsoft, keep it simple so you have easy access to | key

Help, I also have the same problem as I solve it

Hi Everyone,

We are aware that DigitalOcean has changed the way several items are handled, we will be updating our tutorial and should have everything ready within the next week.

Thank you for your patience!

No it's working fine, the problem was in my terminal.

Thanks for images.

Hi,

I contacted DigitalOcean about this and this is the reply I got. I think DigitalOcean is intentionally blocking users from installing/ testing Windows on their platform:

"Hello, Thank you for contacting DigitalOcean!
We do not provide windows OS on our end. Our Infrastructure supports Linux OS which we provide only. We do not encourage users to install Windows on our Platform as it will render your Droplet useless. If you need windows,  please seek another IAAS provider if which can serve your hosting needs. Please feel free to reach out to us via this ticket if you have further queries or concerns, we will be around to help you out!
Kind Regards,

DigitalOcean "

Thanks

I am getting the same error as well and I was forced to donate for this tutorial

This is not fair

You shouldnt force people to pay money if you don't have a working solution

I agree with you. I dont like that either. What I dont like more is when people dont reply when something like this happens. Its been nearly a month and no reply yet.

If you paid via Paypal, open a dispute. You should be able to get your money back. This topic alone should be proof enough.

Thanks

You are absolutely right, the new tutorial hasn't been released and that is on me 100%.

You need only to send over a support request and we will handle the refund, no need to open a dispute.

Just find a solution for problem | auto change to > when copy paste con console.

Just login ssh (putty) and paste the command 🙂
