Unable to Run Powershell Command

My apologies

For security reasons you always need to provide a path of running a .ps1 file. As you are in the correct folder already, just use

.\Setup-Azure.ps1

Select allOpen in new window

The file extension is not required but recommended to name here.

Note:
There is a known issue with PowerShell $env:PSModulePath that can occur when installing from WebPI. If your computer requires a restart due to system updates or other installations, it may cause updates $env:PSModulePath to not include the path where Azure PowerShell is installed. If this occurs, you may see a 'cmdlet not recognized' message when attempting to use Azure PowerShell cmdlets after the installation or upgrade. If this occurs, restarting the machine should fix the problem.

Thanks for responding.

I ran the script as you suggested but I get the following error message:

a .psm1 s a module that will be called from a .ps1 (script) post a link to the page that you got this module from

Please note the dot backslash in my code line.

Just type "setup-a" and press the tab button to complete the command.  It has to show exactly like this...

.\setup-azure.ps1

with the leading ".\"

For that work you will have to install Windows Azure PowerShell module.  Sign in to the Windows Azure Management Portal using the credentials for your Windows Azure account.  Download and install the Windows Azure PowerShell Tools.

is D:\Modules in your psmodulepath?
Probably a better location is in c:\iusers\<username>\documents\WindowsPowershell\Modules

Todd,

I have followed your suggestion, see image below:

Will you type "dir" so we can see the name of the files in the directory?

Hi Nitenkumar,

I have logged into the portal with my Windows Azure account. Can you let me know where to go to get the Windows Azure PowerShell Tools.?

Cheers

This cannot be the result of tab completion, as you never get a wrong file or cmdlet that way.
The file name you showed now contains a dot isnstead of a dash!

Hi Nitenkumar,

I think I have it. Installing it now. Will let you know how I get on

get-module -listavailable
import-module modulename
setup-azure

Hi,

So I have installed Windows Powershell ISE from Azure,

Please see below for dir and command outputs

Okay.  I suppose you will need to type ".\setup-azure.psm1" for the command to run properly (or at least start.

David,

Yes, is D:\Modules in my psmodulepath

See attached

Todd,

That worked. However, after entering the command I should be presented with the following


However, I just get the following:


Any thoughts why?

Cheers

Ok, when I run the script without the quotes it appears to be fine, however the script then opens the Setup-Azure.psm1 file in notepad, see attached.

Setup-Azure.txt

David

Thanks.  

Please remember I'm a novice with this.  Can you please let me know the command to the moody the module ?

Cheers

I meant to say how to import the module

import-module -name modulename

Can you let me know how to load the module ?

Cheers

get-help import-module -examples

Subsun,

Thank you. I will give that a try when I get to my desk.

Cheers

Subsun,

I have downloaded the modules to a new pc. This time the files are on the C:.

When I execute the command you suggested I get the error shown in the image:


Any thoughts

get-help about_signing

Select allOpen in new window

By default scripts are disabled in the execution policy.

set-executionpolicy -executionpolicy remotesigned

Select allOpen in new window

Powershell has a huge help index.  Learn how to use it and you will be amazed at how many questions it will answer.  

if you open powershell as an administrator you should periodically run the

update-help

Select allOpen in new window

command

Hi David

We're nearly,

where did you get this module? So the experts can follow along with you

David,


I got it from Microsoft Azure Training Lab.

Thanks

Would you happen to know if there is a script that will enable me to load a bunch of modules in one shot?
