You can provide the custom username and password as follows, using the TemplateBuilder. Note the use of the TemplateOptions and the methods it provides to override the credentials:
TemplateOptions opts = computeService.templateOptions(); Template template = computeService.templateBuilder() .locationId("Australia East") .imageId("ad072bd3082149369c449ba5832401ae__Windows-Server-Remote-Desktop-Session-Host-on-Windows-Server-2012-R2-20150828-0350") .hardwareId("BASIC_A0") .options(opts.overrideLoginUser("user").overrideLoginPassword("password")) .build(); If no user or pass is provided, jclouds will use by default "jclouds" as a username and "Azur3Compute!" as the password. This said, you should never see the error you provide, but looking at the code, I'm pretty sure it is a bug in jclouds, as the "AdminUsername" tag should be set here [1] when deploying Windows VMs. Mind opening a JIRA issue [2] to track this? And would you want to try opening a pull request and send your first contribution to jclouds? The fix should be as easy as adding that tag on the mentioned code block. HTH! I.
