Cannot compile DSC Configuration from NodePS #1
Description
I was thinking of using NodePS as a web front end for a DSC Configuration writer/distributor.
Unfortunately when I try to compile a simple DSC Configuration it stops right before creating the .mof until I hit ctrl-c, then it completes but stops the NodePS server instance. But if I start the instance and connect to the powershell session via VS2015 debugger then it works just fine.
This is the .ps1 that I am using
if ($NodePSPost.ServerName -ne $null)
{
Write-Host "setup dsc config for $($NodePSPost.ServerName)"
Configuration MyConfig {
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory=$true)]
[ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]
[string]
$NodeName
)
Node $NodeName
{
File Data
{
Ensure = "Present"
Type = "Directory"
DestinationPath = "C:\Data"
}
}
}
Write-Host "end dsc config for $($NodePSPost.ServerName)"
#Import-DscResource –ModuleName PSDesiredStateConfiguration
$(MyConfig -NodeName $NodePSPost.ServerName)
Write-Host $NodePSPost.ServerName
}
