Execute powershell script from ssis?

Hi,
I was trying to use the execute process task to kick off a powershell script.  However, nothing happens when I run in debug (the component turns yellow and stays yellow).  Any idea if what I am trying to do is possible and the proper way to configure
it?
btw, I am using powershell for the remoting capabilites.  I need to execute a bat file on a remote server which runs a process in a legacy program. 
Update:  When I name the ps1 script file in the executable window, it opens it in notepad.  This would be like the default if you double clicked the file.

To run a PowerShell Script from SSIS package. Add a "Execute Process Task" in SSIS and use the following command text.
This works just great, plus the "-ExecutionPolicy ByPass" switch will take care of any server script policies.
C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\PowerShell.exe
-ExecutionPolicy ByPass -command ". 'L:\Powershell_Script\Script1.ps1' 'param1' 'param2'"

  • Executing powershell script from remote computer using RSAT

    Hi.
    I want to execute powershell script on AD server from remote computer (in the same domain). I installed and tested RSAT - it is working fine. But i cant execute PS from c# code.
    ps.Commands.AddCommand("Import-Module").AddArgument("ActiveDirectory");
    ps.Invoke();
    ps.Commands.AddCommand("Get-ADOrganizationalUnit -Filter 'Name -like \"*\"'");
    var res = ps.Invoke();
     And i get exception:
    An unhandled exception of type 'System.Management.Automation.CommandNotFoundException' occurred in System.Management.Automation.dll
    Additional information: The term 'Get-SBNamespace' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

    Hi
    CapitanPlanet
    For the
    CommandNotFoundException, it means the command cannot be found.
    On the other hand, your issue is about the PowerShell, if you still have the issue, I suggest that you should post it in the
    PowerShell forum for efficient response.
    Here are some useful information, please check

  • Can we execute a Powershell script from the Javascript?

    Hi,
    I have a certain requirement to add a Custom ribbon button in document library and there was a powershell script to be run for the selected item in the library.
    I have struck with executing a Powershell script from the javascript function.
    Can anyone please suggest me if this was achievable
    Thanks, Swaroop Vuppala

    Hi Swaroop,
    To execute server side code in a custom ribbon button script, using application page is a common way to do this, besides, you can also use a page dialog, which is similar with application page but display as model dialog, another way is javascript
    _dopostback and delegate control, the following article contains detailed information about this, please refer to it for more information:

  • How to execute sql scripts from Powershell across multiple databases

    Re: How to execute sql scripts from Powershell across multiple databases
    I have an tsql script that I want to run across a list of databases. How is the best way to do this in Powershell? Thanks.

    My example below, using just the SMO and not breaking up the batches, the ExecuteWithResults give the following error when the .sql file contains a GO. My script files are as simple as a DECLARE and then a GO.

  • Execute powershell script in OIM task

    Hi everyone,
    I have a powershell script.
    I want to execute this script on exchange machine.
    How can I do this?
    Can you send a code blok that executes powershell script if you have?
    Thanks.
    Best regards.

    Hi FXE,
    first of all, to protocol execution you can use the cmdlets Start-Transcript
    and Stop-Transcript.
    If it doesn't create a transcript at all, your error is with launching the console from task.
    If it does create a transcript, you can (hopefully) see what the script wrote.
    On general principle I'd recommend trying these things:
    Try specifying the full path to powershell.exe
    Make sure the user running the task has the necessary permissions
    Make sure it's running as local admin (with maximum privileges)
    Cheers,

  • Run PowerShell script from C# writing to input pipe

    Hello,
    I am trying to run a PowerShell script from C# (I have no control over what's in the script). The script may have a prompt like "Press enter to continue". So my goal is:
    1. Get text output from the script (easy, many examples available)
    3. If output contains "Press enter to continue", write a blank line to the running script's pipe to make it finish its job and quit
    4. If output does contain that prompt, just let it exit by itself without sending any input
    Note that commands in this PS script also try to get at script's file path, so I can't read script from file and pass it as text. It has to be executed as a script so it knows where it's located.
    I have done this with .exes and batch files before. All you do in that case is process.StandardInput.WriteLine() which "types" enter into the input stream of script you are trying to control. But this does not work with Power Shell. How do I do this?
    I have tried using PS object model like so:
    using (Pipeline pipeline = runspace.CreatePipeline())
    Command command = new Command(scriptPS, true, true);
       pipeline.Commands.Add(command);
       pipeline.Commands[0].MergeMyResults(PipelineResultTypes.Error, PipelineResultTypes.Output);
       pipeline.Input.Write("\n");
       Collection<PSObject> psresults = pipeline.Invoke();   //...
    But I get an error because the script prompts:
    "A command that prompts the user failed because the host program or the command type does not support user interaction. Try a host program that supports user interaction, such as the Windows PowerShell Console or Windows PowerShell ISE, and remove prompt-related
    commands from command types that do not support user interaction, such as Windows PowerShell workflows."
    I also tried using Process, and running PowerShell with -File switch to execute the script, then write to StandardInput with C#. I get no errors then, but the input is ignored and doesn't make it to PowerShell.
    Please help!

    No man, what kind of answer is that? You should have left it unanswered rather than waste people's time like this. I already seen those links before I posted my question. They address the issue of specifying script parameters, but not
    writing to the input pipe.
    Fortunately I did figure this out by writing a custom script host for PowerShell. Anyone interested can read about this in detail on MSDN (fortunately simple material with samples you can copy paste as I did, so this solution takes little time to implement).
    Implement PSHost interface. Nothing special here, just paste directly from MSDN sample and modify their SetShouldExit function definition to contain just a "return;". Here's the relevant link:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee706559(v=vs.85).aspx
    Implement PSHostUserInterface interface. This is the ticket to solving this problem
    (see below). Here's the MSDN link:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee706584(v=vs.85).aspx
    Implement PSHostRawUserInterface. This may not be required (not sure) but I did anyway. Nearly a direct paste from MSDN:
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/ee706601(v=vs.85).aspx
    So, there are two PSHostUserInterface function implementations that are of particular interest. First is Prompt (read header comment to see why):
    /// <summary>
    /// When script attempts to get user input, we override it and give it input programmatically,
    /// by looking up within promptInput's dictionary<string,string> or lineInput array.
    /// PromptInput dictionary is mapped by input prompt (for example, return "" in response to "Press ENTER to continue")
    /// LineInput is a regular array, and each time the script wants to prompt for input we return the next line in that array;
    /// this works much like piping inputs from a regular text file in DOS command line.
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="caption">The caption or title of the prompt.</param>
    /// <param name="message">The text of the prompt.</param>
    /// <param name="descriptions">A collection of FieldDescription objects that
    /// describe each field of the prompt.</param>
    /// <returns>Throws a NotImplementedException exception.</returns>
    public override Dictionary<string, PSObject> Prompt(string caption, string message, System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection<FieldDescription> descriptions)
    Dictionary<string, PSObject> ret = new Dictionary<string, PSObject>();
    foreach (FieldDescription desc in descriptions)
    if (this.promptInput.Count != 0)
    ret[desc.Name] = new PSObject(this.promptInput[desc.Name] + "\r\n");
    else if (this.lineInput != null && this.currentLineInput >= 0 && this.currentLineInput < this.lineInput.Length)
    ret[desc.Name] = new PSObject(this.lineInput[this.currentLineInput++] + "\r\n");
    else
    if (desc.DefaultValue == null)
    ret[desc.Name] = new PSObject("\r\n");
    else
    ret[desc.Name] = new PSObject(desc.DefaultValue);
    return ret;
    Next is PromptForChoice. Here I opted to always return the default choice, but you could rewrite it to read from somewhere to "simulate" reading from input pipe just like the function above:
    public override int PromptForChoice(string caption, string message, System.Collections.ObjectModel.Collection<ChoiceDescription> choices, int defaultChoice)
            return defaultChoice;
    Last but not least, here's a ReadLine implementation (again read header comment):
    /// <summary>
    /// If the LineInput is set, "read" the next line from line input string array, incrementing line pointer/// </summary>
    /// <returns>The characters that are entered by the user.</returns>
    public override string ReadLine()
    if (this.lineInput != null && this.currentLineInput >= 0 && this.currentLineInput < this.lineInput.Length)
    return this.lineInput[this.currentLineInput++];
    else
    return Console.ReadLine();
    Both are exposed as properties:
    /// <summary>
    /// Gets or sets the input pipe override
    /// </summary>
    public string Input
    get
    return string.Join("\n", this.lineInput);
    set
    if (value != null)
    this.lineInput = value.Split('\n');
    this.currentLineInput = 0;
    else
    this.lineInput = null;
    /// <summary>
    /// Gets or sets input pipe override for named prompts
    /// </summary>
    public Dictionary<string, string> PromptInput
    get
    return this.promptInput;
    set
    this.promptInput = value;
    And finally, here's how the whole shebang is used:
    /// <summary>
    /// Runs a powershell script, with input pipe arguments
    /// </summary>
    /// <param name="script">Path of the script to execute, or script text</param>
    /// <param name="inline">Whether or not to execute script text directly, or execute script from path</param>
    /// <param name="unrestricted">Whether or not to set unrestricted execution policy</param>
    /// <param name="parameters">Parameters to pass to the script command line</param>
    /// <param name="inputOverride">Input to pass into the script's input pipe</param>
    /// <param name="inputOverrideName">Input to pass into the script's input pipe, to each prompt by label</param>
    /// <returns>Output lines</returns>
    public static string PowerShell(string script, bool inline, bool unrestricted = false, Dictionary<string, string> parameters = null, string inputOverride = null, Dictionary<string, string> inputOverrideByName = null)
    string output = null;
    ScriptHost host = new ScriptHost();
    (host.UI as ScriptHostUserInterface).Input = inputOverride;
    (host.UI as ScriptHostUserInterface).PromptInput = inputOverrideByName;
    using (Runspace runspace = RunspaceFactory.CreateRunspace(host))
    runspace.Open();
    if (unrestricted)
    RunspaceInvoke runSpaceInvoker = new RunspaceInvoke(runspace);
    runSpaceInvoker.Invoke("Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted");
    using (Pipeline pipeline = runspace.CreatePipeline())
    if (inline)
    pipeline.Commands.AddScript(script);
    else
    Command command = new Command(script, true, true);
    foreach (KeyValuePair<string, string> param in parameters)
    command.Parameters.Add(param.Key, param.Value);
    pipeline.Commands.Add(command);
    pipeline.Commands.Add("Out-String");
    pipeline.Commands[0].MergeMyResults(PipelineResultTypes.Error, PipelineResultTypes.Output);
    Collection<PSObject> psresults = pipeline.Invoke();
    var sb = new StringBuilder();
    foreach (PSObject obj in psresults)
    sb.AppendLine(obj.ToString());
    output = sb.ToString();
    pipeline.Dispose();
    runspace.Close();
    return (host.UI as ScriptHostUserInterface).Output + "\r\n" + output;
    As you can see, I also did some magic with the .Output property. That just accumulates lines of text output by the script in every WriteXXX function implemented in your custom PSHostUserInterface. The end result of all this, is that if you have a script
    that has prompts, choices or reads from standard input, you can execute the script within the context of your custom script host written as above, to control precisely what strings are passed to it in response to prompts.
     

  • Executing powershell scripts via Task Scheduler

    Hi,
    I have a powershell script that I wrote that when executed from the shell works fine but when executed from task scheduler does not work.
    In my script, an email is sent out based on the results of the execution.  When I run this from the shell, email goes out, when scheduled, no email and there is no indication of errors having occurred anywhere in the system.
    Has anyone run into a similar issue?
    I did change my powershell execution policy to be unrestricted (both in the x86 and x64 consoles).  I am running Windows 2008 R2.
    Thanks - Greg.

  • Execute perl script from CPO

                       Hi everyone,
    Is it possible to execute a perl script directly from CPO without using a cgi or soap action, If yes, is there any documentation or model workflows that I can refer to...

    Its a prewritten script hosted in a linux box(svc cat server), first we tried to invoke it as a soap request...
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" SOAP-ENV:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/" xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/1999/XMLSchema">
    ">
    #username#
    this worked but we want to discontinue this approach,
    so we tried to host the script as cgi and invoke the cgi directly...
    but this is not working, so wanted to see if we can execute the script from CPO either directly by using CLI or by hosting the script in a server

  • Does Forefront Endpoint Protection 2010 block powershell scripts from running?

    Hi all,
    I have a task that runs a Powershell script on a set schedule on a particular machine.  It has failed to run and I thought 1 of the potential reasons would be that FEP 2010 blocks the Powershell script from being run.  Does FEP 2010 do that?  If so, where can I find the setting to allow Powershell scripts (or VB scripts or Java scripts) to be run by my task?
    Thanks for your help in advance.

    If the script detect as malicious , FEP will block it, otherwise it won't block normal and safe PowerShell scripts. You may take a look at event viewer and see whether it being blocked or detect as malicious code by FEP or not.

  • Can I query to PowerShell scripts from Power Query ?

    Can I query to PowerShell scripts from Power Query ?
    I want to use PowerShell result for Data Visualization in Excel.
    Like importing from web, odata, hdinsight, etc,
    I want to import result of PowerShell script.
    PowerShell can do a lot of system management.

    This is not possible today and is not something that's likely to be implemented. The combination of being able to easily share queries and being able to easily launch external scripts that can do anything supported by the current user's permissions is
    something of a security nightmare.

  • Execute PowerShell Scripts via SAP NetWeaver Identity Management

    Hello,
    Has anyone implemented the execution of a PowerShell script from SAP NetWeaver Identity Management (7.1, 7.2, 8.0?).  Currently implementing 8.0, and our client is looking to kick off PowerShell scripts that would generate Active Directory accounts, Exchange accounts etc.
    Thanks!

    Hey Brendan,
    We've done this out of a 7.2 implementation for exchange 2010 admin processes.  We started with running powershell via a command line pass.  It worked pretty well but it wasn't plain sailing.  We used positional parameters to pass data to the scripts in question, we also had to come up with a return process that deals with any errors that might come of the powershell session.  We had some issues with the shell sessions closing after the script completed.
    We've since redesigned and now drop flat files to a constantly running powershell script that acts a bit like an IDM dispatcher (but obviously not integrated with IDM).  It kicks off other powershell sessions and monitors their progress allowing it to process time outs, stack work up, etc.
    We also found timing the processes to be an issue.  If you create an AD account in IDM and then try to immediately move onto mailbox enable (for example) the account we created wasn't yet replicated to exchange so we had to build wait time into various parts of the process.
    Thanks,
    Pete.
