c# - Using Powershell in an ASP.NET application deployed to an IIS server -

i'm developing test project in asp.net mvc, im using system.management.automation execute powershell cmdlets. of cmdlets azure powershell module.

the code working fine when run visual studio. when published website iis cmdlets , these scripts don't work.

example, see comments before:

    var shell = powershell.create();     var script1 = "get-azuresubscription | out-string"; // cant execute cmdlet      var script2 = "c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\app1\\scripts\\test.ps1"; //cant execute script.     var script3 = "get-date"; //work fine     try     {      shell.commands.addscript(script); // here insert script.      collection<psobject> results = shell.invoke();      //search errors, if error found redirect error page.         if (shell.streams.error.count > 0)         {          foreach (errorrecord err in shell.streams.error)          {           string error = err.tostring();           tempdata["pserror"] = error;           return redirecttoaction("powershellerror");                          }         }          else            if (results.count > 0)           {            foreach (var psobject in results)            {             string result2 = psobject.tostring();             tempdata["psoutput"] = result2;             return redirecttoaction("powershelloutput");            }           } 

both, script1 , script2 give error:

the term 'c:\inetpub\wwwroot\app1\scripts\test.ps1' not recognized name of cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. check spelling of name, or if path included, verify path correct , try again.

and

the term 'get-azuresubscription' not recognized name of cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. check spelling of name, or if path included, verify path correct , try again.

what be??? missing in iis setup?

you need import azure module, try suggested here:

var ps = powershell.create(myrs); ps.commands.addcommand("import-module").addargument(@"g:\...\powerdbg.psm1") ps.invoke() 

i don't have azure ps tools installed on machine, path should be: "c:\program files (x86)\microsoft sdks\windows azure\powershell\azure\azure.psd1
