Unable to register package source about chocolatier HOT 10 CLOSED

Hi ethanbergstrom,

I copied the files from chocolatier provider 1.0.4 into the machine without the internet connection. There's one thing that has been bothering me, so I have deregistered my repository and copied the provider 1.2.0 files. Once again I have tried to register and the registered correctly.
I don't know what was the reason for the problem before. Currently the registered repository works in provider version 1.2.0.
Sorry for the confusion and thank you for your analysis.

Hey @Gregoorio,

I'm not able to reproduce the issue you're seeing. What version of PowerShell are you using?

from chocolatier.

@ethanbergstrom,

I'm using the 5.1 powershell version. In version 1.0.4 Chocolatier I used the same version and registration of the repository via (register-packagesource) command it is works.

Could you paste the entire terminal output, including the registration command, in this thread?

Hi @ethanbergstrom,

I've used command:
Register-PackageSource -name TEST -location https://myrepo.hs/nuget -provider Chocolatier -Trusted

And this is error:

WARNING: MSG:UnableToDownload «https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=627338&clcid=0x409» «»

I saw problem in the parameter 'name' but I don't know what is the matter

"Cannot bind argument to parameter 'name' because it is an empty string."

I just tried it in a clean Windows Sandbox environment, and I'm not seeing that issue:

Could you confirm how you're installing the package provider? From the output, it looks like your machine isn't connected to the internet. Are you mirroring the package provider module to an internal NuGet repository?

from chocolatier.

Yes, you are right. My machine has no internet.
I have download a Chocolatier package from another machine that has the Internet and copy folders to a machine without the Internet.
I have an external nugget repository by (nuget server).
From a machine that doesn't have internet I register my nuget repository. In version 1.0.4 of Provider Chocolatier it works. However in version 1.2.0 I have a problem with the 'name' parameter.

from chocolatier.

I'm not sure what your issue may be then, other than some sort of issue in your copy process to the disconnected machine.

I just tried copying the module into a Windows Sandbox instance without any internet connection, and it worked after I set the execution policy to RemoteSigned.

Great! Glad you were able to get it working.
