psrepository fails after initial corrective action about puppet-powershellmodule HOT 6 OPEN

was there a fix for this?

from puppet-powershellmodule.

@bishopbm1 or @gsperry2011 can you guys look into this? i don't have Windows anymore to check it out.

from puppet-powershellmodule.

I will provide a lot of information: I am on windows2016 server core:
"${env:ProgramFiles}\PackageManagement\ProviderAssemblies\Microsoft.PackageManagement.NuGetProvider.dll
is present

My error is:

Could not set 'present' on ensure: Error when executing command: $ProgressPreference = 'SilentlyContinue'; $ErrorActionPreference = 'Stop'; [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol -bor [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12;     $params = @{
      Name = 'psgallery-virtual'
      SourceLocation = 'https://chocolatey.example.com/chocolatey'
      InstallationPolicy = 'trusted'
    }

    # Detecting if this is Powershell Gallery repo or not
    if ($params.Name -eq 'PSGallery' -or $params.SourceLocation -match 'powershellgallery') {
      # Trim these params or the splatting will fail
      $params.Remove('Name')
      $params.Remove('SourceLocation')
      Register-PSRepository -Default @params
    } else {
      # For all non-PSGallery repos..
      Register-PSRepository @params
    }

 stdout =  
 stderr = [] (file: /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/master/modules/os/manifests/powershell.pp, line: 3)

This only happens on a handful of nodes, so it is not consistent.

What's the output look like if you run this in powershell (please make sure it's "run as administrator"), also please change the $params to match whatever you have specified in hiera.

Hello,

I added a try - catch on the block "create_command" when it tries to "Register-PSRepository @params" in lib\puppet\provider\psrepository\powershellcore.rb as the error seems to come from the fact that the repository is tried to be re-added if it exists already.

Another weird behavior I noticed is that the stdout from the "self.instances_command" block is not returning anything.

I found that the repository discovery block "self.instances_command" was not generating any return at first run, seems like it's due to the -WarningAction Stop. If the WarningAction behavior is set to Ignore, as warnings comming from Get-PSRepository on first run can be ignored, it generates an output and the error disappear.

So far it fixed the issue and seems a better solution than adding a try catch block as stated earlier.

cheers
