Problem
I’m getting another error. “\benchmarks\CIS_Microsoft_Windows_Server_2003_Benchmark_v3.1.0-xccdf.xml does not exist.”
Indeed when I inspect the Assessor\benchmarks folder, the Server 2003 benchmark does not exist.
Solution
The 2003 Benchmark call is a current bug with the Assessor v4.18.0 Centralized script. That Benchmark went End of Life this year but was left as a line in the .bat file.
Open in a word editing software the
cis-cat-centralized-ccpd.batorcis-cat-centralized.bat[based on which kind of centralized scan you would like to run]Navigate to lines 118 & 129 need to be hashed out
#so that Assessor skips that check. You can likely also use the::as seen in the file:#SET Benchmark=CIS_Microsoft_Windows_Server_2003_Benchmark_v3.1.0-xccdf.xml :: :: The Benchmark Profile to execute. A list of profiles, delimited by a :: space (" ") can be provided to evaluate multiple profiles. :: :: Note: This value will be overridden if AUTODETECT=1. :: Note: This value will be overridden if a benchmark is specified via :: the command line. :: #SET Profiles=xccdf_org.cisecurity.benchmarks_profile_Level_1_-_Domain_Controller xccdf_org.cisecurity.benchmarks_profile_Level_1_-_Member_ServerSave & close
Try to run the Centralized Assessment again.
If this does not resolve the error please:
Clear out any existing Assessor logs
Rerun a fresh Centralized scan
