Hello kaizersose,

For future posts with long traces/logs, please use a paste service like sprunge.us, pastebin.com or paste.openstack.org to make the log parsing more easier. As you can see in the logs, you're using in the instance a configuration ISO drive as metadata provider and the service was unable to extract it correctly through the bsdtar utility (and that's why the userdata plugins won't reach your script content), so maybe something it's scrambled in your installation or you don't have the appropiate MSI installer with the used architecture.

Please provide more details about the windows instance type/version you're using and also try with one of the continuous (beta) installers that suits you best: http://www.cloudbase.it/cloud-init-wi...
