Troubleshooting Directory Proxy Server 5.2 Installation Failures

Installation may fail if the password contains a dollar sign ($) character, such as pa$$word. For example, you might get the following error message:

[4] stderr > Can't read "word" no such variable

When the installer parses the password it interprets the text after the dollar sign, $word, as a variable, and this variable does not exist.

Change the password to not include the dollar sign character.
