Cannot create user for a Catalyst 2960L-SM

[walbrecht]

Hi,

When I try to create a user under the General Settings - User Administration section in the web UI I get a 'Configuration failed to apply, Invalid input Detected'. I have put in many different combinations of username/passwords and nothing works. 

Has anyone else come across this issue?

I am thinking you may have the same issue based on the information, if you have console access - check what is the Logs you see on the switch?

Look at this thread :

I solved this by added adding username myusername privilege 15 password 0 mypassword to flash:dc_profile_dir/day0.cfg, I then ran the setup command from the console.

I wish cisco would add the full CLI capabilities to these switches.
