Power shell: Import-Module

问题:

I have been trying to us the app fabric caching on a win2008 standard server. When I execute the follwowing command I get: Import-Module DistributedCacheAdministration Import-Module : The specified module 'DistributedCacheAdministration' was not loaded because no valid module file was found in any module directory.

Where is this directory located and how can I use that module

Also, it appears that I have powershell 1. I cant seem to install powershell 2

回答1:

Modules and their commands is a feature in Powershell 2 only, so you can be quite certain you're running this version. I guess you're confused because the Powershell.exe is located in a "1.0" directory; that's only to make version 2.0 backwards compatible.

You need to specify the exact location of the module to load: Import-Module [-Force] path-to-module-file`

Even better is have it available via the $PSModulePath environment variable. Try a Get-Module -ListAvailable to see what modules are available. Since the one you're trying to load does not seem to be listed, try setting the $PSModulePath to the folder above the directory holding the module file.

When you're satisfied with having the correct module path, set it via Computer Properties.

回答2:

I installed AppFabric and the folder shows up at C:\Windows\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\Modules\DistributedCacheAdministration

Yet Import-Module DistributedCacheAdministration doesn't work and the module isn't listed in Get-Module -ListAvailable
