I need to change many scheduled tasks to run monthly.

The problem I have is New-ScheduledTaskTrigger does not have a -Monthly switch.

I can create new tasks that run monthly using schtasks.exe, but that does not seem to allow changing triggers if the task already exists.

I'd appreciate any ideas.

Help please,

I have written a Powershell script that is trying to use Remove-Item to delete some Registry keys. I am running under Admin. if I go into Regedit it will let me delete the keys but if I run the Powershell script I get "Remove-Item Requested registry access is not allowed."

I have checked the permissions for the key and it says I have Delete permission. I am using the PowerShell ISE and am on Windows 7. I have tried -Force and -Recurse but makes no difference, neither does reducing UAC to minimum. It also makes no difference if I start PowerShell ISE with Administrator privileges. Why can I delete from within Regedit but not from PowerShell?

Be grateful for some help.

Hi All,
Tried to set ACL on remote registry but it doesn't work. Tested the same code on local computer which works fine. Please help
objective : Need to assign full permission to "Domain Users" on registry (HKLM\Software\Microsoft) of several remote computers.

Code :
Set-ExecutionPolicy unrestricted -Force
Import-Module -Name psrr -Force

$servers= Get-Content -Path 'D:\ServerList.txt'

foreach($pc in $servers)
{
write-host "Setting ACL Permission for $PC"
$RegSec = new-object system.Security.AccessControl.RegistrySecurity
$rule = New-Object System.Security.AccessControl.RegistryAccessRule("Domain users", "FullControl", "ContainerInherit, ObjectInherit", "None", "Allow")
$RegSec.AddAccessRule($rule)

$RemoteKey = [microsoft.Win32.RegistryKey]::OpenRemoteBaseKey("LocalMachine", $pc)
$RemoteAccess = $RemoteKey.OpenSubKey("Software\Microsoft", $true)

$RemoteAccess.SetAccesscontrol($RegSec)
}

please let me know whats wrong here

This code works well on for the same computer from where this PS run.. but doesn't work for remote computer on same domain.

Hello,

Where is the secret?

Could someone explain why im not able to gather content of Operational log file?

I just see:

But Operational Log file still exist in event viewer?

Also is no propertie? how it can be gathered? Not exist? I have it.

I have a powershell script which runs FSW to monitor a directory into which new files are added.

When I run this script from the desktop, using Powershell running as administrator, it works perfectly.  But when I run the same script in Task Manager as Admin it runs partially but does not appear to see the FSW response when a new file appears in the monitored directory so it does not execute the code to respond to a new file.

I have checked permissions on the relevant folders and granted as much access as possible.

The outlog file containts just the following two lines:

When a new file appears in the directory the script does not respond - though when run in powershell from the desktop it works perfectly...  Steps 1 & 2 execute but Step 3 and subsequent steps do not run.

If anyone can suggest why this may be I would very much appreciate it.

The script is as follows:

I'm using the Windows PowerShell Plugin in Jenkins and want to open my browser and start inputing keystrokes.

When I use the following code in powershell ISE on my computer it works a charm:

Add-Type –AssemblyName System.Windows.Forms
$url = "http://webaddress"
Start-Process -FilePath iexplore -ArgumentList $url
sleep 30
[System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys]::SendWait("{2}{tab}{H}{E}{L}{L}{O}")
sleep 10
[System.Windows.Forms.SendKeys]::SendWait("^{X}")

However, once I use it in Jenkins it returns the following error, telling me my access to the keystrokes is denied.

Building on master in workspace C:\Program Files\Jenkins\workspace\Jenkins Test

I'm using Jenkins as admin so I wouldn't expect there to be issues with permissions. I installed it and setup using the same account on the server too.

Advice?

Lets say i would like to get-process from Ad-computer

get-adcomputer is an object, so in order to return a string needed for get-process i run the following:

Get-ADComputer hostname | Select-Object -ExpandProperty name

which does return s string:

Get-ADComputer hostname | Select-Object -ExpandProperty name | gm

TypeName: System.String

I know get-process is looking for a string on a -computername:

 -ComputerName [<String[]>]

Accept pipeline input?       True (ByPropertyName)

Then why i am getting an error :)

Get-ADComputer hostname | Select-Object -ExpandProperty name | Get-Process

Get-Process : The input object cannot be bound to any parameters for the command 
either because the command does not take pipeline input or the input and its 
properties do not match any of the parameters that take pipeline input.

I know i am missing something very small....

Hi guys!!

I  am using Powershell through DollarU (Workload automation software) to execute SQL Agent job (all steps) or one specific step at a time.  So far so good, everything is working!!  However, when it gets to the point where I want to get the History log information, I can't seem get what I want.

Here is my program:  

param ([parameter (Mandatory = $true)][string]$ServerName,

       [parameter (Mandatory = $true)][string]$JobName,

       [string]$StepName = "")



write-host "Starting SQL Agent Job $($JobName) on Server $($ServerName)"

$date=Get-Date

write-host "It is now: $($date)"

[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName('Microsoft.SqlServer.SMO') | out-null

$srv = New-Object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.SMO.Server("$ServerName")

$job = $srv.jobserver.jobs["$JobName"]
$jobstart="No"

if (($job))
{

   if ($StepName -ne '')
      {
        $job.Start($StepName)
        $jobstart="Yes"
        Start-Sleep -s 5  # Pause for 5 seconds (optional) - was 30 seconds (v1); v2=5
      }

   else
      {
        $job.Start()
        $jobstart="Yes"
        Start-Sleep -s 5
      }
}

else
{
   $jobstart="Not found"
}

if ($jobstart -eq "Yes")
{
   write-host "Job $($JobName) on Server $($ServerName) started"
   $i=0

   do
   {
     $job.Refresh();
     $iRem = $i % 5;
     $jobrunning=$job.CurrentRunStatus.ToString();

     if ($iRem -eq 0)
     {
       $date=Get-Date
       write-host "Job $($JobName) Processing--Run Step:$($job.CurrentRunStep) Status:$($job.CurrentRunStatus.ToString())... at $($date)"
     }

     Start-Sleep -s 10; # Pause for 10 seconds  - was 60 seconds (v1); v2=10
     $i++;
   }

   while ($job.CurrentRunStatus.ToString() -ne "Idle")
     if ($job.LastRunOutcome -ne "Cancelled")
     {
       write-host "Job Processing done"
     }
     else
     {
       write-host "Job Processing cancelled/aborted"
     }

     #   $jobRunning="TRUE"
     write-host "$($srv.name) $($job.name)"
     write-host "Last job outcome $($job.LastRunOutcome)"
     write-host "Last job outcome $($job.LastRunDate)"

        if ($job.EnumHistory().Rows[0] -ne $null)
        {
           write-host "xxxx $($job.EnumHistory().Rows[0].Message)"
        }

        if ($job.EnumHistory().Rows[1] -ne $null)
        {
           write-host "yyyyy $($job.EnumHistory().Rows[1].Message)"
        }


        $LastRun=$job.LastRunOutcome

        if ($StepName -ne '')
        {
           $JobStep = $Job.JobSteps[$StepName]
           Write-Host "Name: $($JobStep.Name) RunDate: $($JobStep.LastRunDate) Status: $($JobStep.LastRunOutCome)"
        }

        else
        {
          $StepCount = $job.JobSteps.Count - 1

        for ($i=0;$i -le $StepCount;$i++)
        {
         $m = $job.JobSteps[$i].LastRunDate
         write-host "Name: $($job.JobSteps[$i].Name) RunDate: $($job.JobSteps[$i].LastRunDate) Status: $($job.JobSteps[$i].LastRunOutCome)"

         if ($job.LastRunDate -gt $m)
             {
                   $LastRun="FailedOrAborted"
             }
       }
     }


     if ($LastRun -eq "Failed")
     {
       write-host "Job returned with Failed status"
       exit 2
     }

     if ($LastRun -ne "FailedOrAborted")
     {
       if ($LastRun -ne "Cancelled")
           {
             exit 0
           }

       else
           {
             write-host "Job Cancelled xxxxx"
             exit 3
           }
        }

     else
     {
             write-host "Job Failed or Aborted"
             exit 2
      }
}

else
{
  write-host "Unable to Start Job $($JobName) on Server $($ServerName)"
  write-host "Reason: Job may not exist or not enabled."
  exit 1
}

When there are no specific step to execute...  when only the jobName is provided, I get the proper information.  When it is only a specific step, the second line (YYYY) returns information from past executions.

 if ($job.EnumHistory().Rows[0] -ne $null)
    {
       write-host "xxxx $($job.EnumHistory().Rows[0].Message)"
    }

    if ($job.EnumHistory().Rows[1] -ne $null)
    {
       write-host "yyyyy $($job.EnumHistory().Rows[1].Message)"
    }

In the following picture, you will see the lines of History log information that I got in return for run executed at 10:42 on August 15th (???)

What I would like to get are the following lines of information:

So I tried the following lines of code without any success...

if ($job.EnumJobStepLogs($StepName).Rows[0] -ne $null)
{
  write-host "xxxx $($job.EnumJobStepLogs($StepName).Rows[0].Message)"
}

if ($job.EnumJobStepLogs($StepName).Rows[1] -ne $null)
{
  write-host "yyyyy $($job.EnumJobStepLogs($StepName).Rows[1].Message)"
}

and this...

if ($job.EnumHistory($stepName).Rows[0] -ne $null)
{
   write-host "xxxx $($job.EnumHistory($stepName).Rows[0].Message)"
}

if ($job.EnumHistory($stepName).Rows[1] -ne $null)
{
   write-host "yyyyy $($job.EnumHistory($stepName).Rows[1].Message)"
}

I really don't understand...  and don't know what to try anymore :-(

Can you help me?

Hi,

I would like to write a script to find from when  a folder is empty  and/or  also would like to check if there is no files written to that folder from past 30 mins.

lastwritetime is not good option to select here as it doesn't give accurate result. Is ther a way we can achieve this.

$test = Get-ChildItem -Path "C:\test" -recurse | where-object {$_.name -eq "New folder"} | where-object {$_.lastwritetime -gt (get-date).AddMinutes(-30)} | where-object {$_.PSIsContainer} | Select-Object {$_.Name}
$test1 = ($test | Measure-Object).Count

Hi,

I am trying to write a PowerShell script that will call another PowerShell script when the first one finishes. Can't get it to work.

1. First script downloads some folders and files from a network share to the users' local C: Drive

2. When the files have finished copying, then fire off another PowerShell script that is part of the files that were copied to the local computer.

# Specify the source and destination paths
$Source = "\\SERVER\SHARE$\PSAPPDEPLOY\"
$Destination = "C:\PSAPPDEPLOY"

# Check if the folder exists and if not create it and copy the PSAppDeploymentKit files to the local C: Drive

If (!(Test-Path $Destination)) {

   Copy-Item -Path $Source -Destination $Destination -Recurse

}

Else {
   Write-Host "Directory already exists!"
   Exit
}

$scriptpath = C:\PSAPPDEPLOY\Deploy-Application.ps1

$ArgumentList = -DeploymentType Install - DeployMode Interactive

Invoke-Expression"$scriptPath $argumentList"

Also, is there a way to bypass UAC and get these to fire off without the prompt? I see a way to do it via a batch file, but was hoping to use PowerShell for the whole thing.

Here's a batch file example:

Hello all,

I'm trying to hide Contact objects from the GAL by setting the msExchHideFromAddressLists and ShowinAddressBook attributes, and I'm having a bit of trouble. My code performs a domain search and then attempts to set these 2 attributes on the objects it finds, but this code is not working:

cls

#SET THE QUERY YOU WANT HERE
$SearchFilter = "(&(objectcategory=person)(!useraccountcontrol:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2))"
$SearchDomain = New-Object system.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry("LDAP://ou=the shire,ou=middle earth,dc=domain,dc=net")
$Searcher = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher
$Searcher.SearchRoot = $SearchDomain
$Searcher.PageSize = 1000
$Searcher.Filter = $SearchFilter
$Searcher.SearchScope = "Subtree"

#SETTING THE PROPERTIES WE WANT RETURNED FOR EACH GROUP.
$PropertyList = "distinguishedname" > $null
foreach ($i in $PropertyList){$Searcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add($i)}

#FINDING ALL THE GROUPS THAT MEET THE $SearchFilter CRITERIA
"Getting search results... Please wait..."
$Results = $Searcher.FindAll()


#LISTING THE RESULTS. IF YOU ARE USING THE $DN -NOTLIKE FILTER HERE, THE $TOTAL VARIABLE
#WILL STILL BE LISTING THE TOTAL NUMBER OF GROUPS FOR THE BASIC SEARCH ABOVE, NOT THE MORE
#GRANULAR SEARCH YOU ARE PERFORMING BELOW.
ForEach($Result in $Results){
    [string]$DN = $Result.Properties.distinguishedname
    get-adobject $DN -pr msexchhidefromaddresslists, showinaddressbook | select name, msexchhidefromaddresslists, showinaddressbook
    set-adobject $DN -replace @{msexchhidefromaddresslists="$true"} -WhatIf
    set-adobject $DN -replace @{showinaddressbook="$null"} -whatif
}

Running this code gives me a "set-adobject: The parameter is incorrect" error on the line where I set the "msExchHideFromAddressLists" attribute.

Running this code gives me a "set-adobject: replace" error on the line where I set the "ShowinAddressBook" attribute.

How can I set these 2 attributes using PowerShell?
