I'm attempting to install SharePoint 2013 in stand alone mode on virual machine. The configuration wizard fails on step #8 with a systemnullreferenceexception error. I've read other posts that suggest changing the security on a analytics_GUID folder located
here: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office Servers\15.0\Data\Office Server\ . I have run the installation twice and the folder is not created. The only solution that I've found on message boards involves sharing the analytics folder. Unfortunately, the folder
is not created;therefore, I can take no action. Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.
