powershell-3.0

I have been having lots of difficulty automating the setup of a Web application and configuring IIS appropriately with the Application Pool Identity. I am doing this in a Web application deployment script written in PowerShell. My requirement is that I need my PowerShell script to set the application pool identity user to a specific service account mydomain\svcuser and password. Here is the sample code: $pool = New-Item "IIS:\AppPools\MyAppPool" -Force $svcuser = "mydomain\svcuser" $pool.processModel.userName = $svcuser $password = "somepassword" $pool.processModel.password = $password $pool

For example I have a .NET object $m with the following method overloads: PS C:\Users\Me> $m.GetBody OverloadDefinitions ------------------- T GetBody[T]() T GetBody[T](System.Runtime.Serialization.XmlObjectSerializer serializer) If I try to invoke the parameterless method I get: PS C:\Users\Me> $m.GetBody() Cannot find an overload for "GetBody" and the argument count: "0". At line:1 char:1 + $m.GetBody() + ~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : MethodCountCouldNotFindBest I understand PowerShell v3.0 is supposed to work more easily with

I've been giving PowerShell (v3.0) a shot for the first time today, and became enormously frustrated with the strange way some of its error-handling concepts are implemented. I wrote the following piece of code (using the Remote Registry PowerShell Module) try { New-RegKey -ComputerName $PCName -Key $Key -Name $Value Write-Host -fore Green ($Key + ": created") } catch { Write-Host -fore Red "Unable to create RegKey: " $Key Write-Host -fore Red $_ } (This is just a snippet) Apparently the default behavior of PowerShell is to NOT catch errors which are non-terminating. So I added the following

I am searching for a list of all colors I can use in PowerShell. Since we need to provide names and no hexnumbers, it's hard to figure out if a color exists or not, at least if you don't know how :)) For example, as -foregroundcolor write-host "hello world" -foregroundcolor "red" The console colors are in an enum called [System.ConsoleColor]. You can list all the values using the GetValues static method of [Enum] [Enum]::GetValues([System.ConsoleColor]) or just [Enum]::GetValues([ConsoleColor]) Pretty grid $colors = [enum]::GetValues([System.ConsoleColor]) Foreach ($bgcolor in $colors){

This question already has an answer here: How to use PowerShell copy-item and keep structure 9 answers This script works perfectly in PowerShell. It copies all files with specific type. But I want copy files with it folders & subfolders. $dest = "C:\example" $files = Get-ChildItem -Path "C:\example" -Filter "*.msg" -Recurse foreach ($file in $files) { $file_path = Join-Path -Path $dest -ChildPath $file.Name $i = 1 while (Test-Path -Path $file_path) { $i++ $file_path = Join-Path -Path $dest -ChildPath "$($file.BaseName)_$($i)$($file.Extension)" } Copy-Item -Path $file.FullName -Destination

I am struggling really hard to get this below script worked to copy the files in folders and sub folders in the proper structure (As the source server). Lets say, there are folders mentioned below: Main Folder: File aaa, File bbb Sub Folder a: File 1, File 2, File 3 Sub Folder b: File 4, File 5, File 6 Script used: Get-ChildItem -Path \\Server1\Test -recurse | ForEach-Object { Copy-Item -LiteralPath $_.FullName -Destination \\server2\test | Get-Acl -Path $_.FullName | Set-Acl -Path "\\server2\test\$(Split-Path -Path $_.FullName -Leaf)" } Output: File aaa, File bbb Sub Folder a (Empty Folder)

I need to remove a member (specifically, a NoteProperty) from an object. How do I accomplish this? Select-Object with ExcludeProperty is good for removing a property from a collection of objects. For removing a property from a single object this method might be more effective: # new object with properties Test and Foo $obj = New-Object -TypeName PSObject -Property @{ Test = 1; Foo = 2 } # remove a property from PSObject.Properties $obj.PSObject.Properties.Remove('Foo') I don't think you can remove from an existing object but you can create a filtered one. $obj = New-Object -TypeName PsObject

I am trying to compile and a sample Helloworld.java file. I have my jdk installed in C:\Program Files\jdk1.7\bin. And I have my Helloworld.java in C:\Helloworld.java I am actually a novice in both powershell and java. I got some examples from web regarding this but many of them advice to run it like this: java.exe -classpath $Env:CLASSPATH C:\Helloworld.java But when I give this in powershell I get an error called 'CLASSPATH' is not defined even after adding it in env variables. And when I try to compile the code with the following syntax: $javac C:\Helloworld.java I get an error "javac is not
