Result Back from PowerShell Script

Postby msandford » Tue May 18, 2021 1:01 am

Hello,

Does anyone know if it's possible to return a value back from the execution of a PowerShell script? Below is the command I'm executing, and it always seems to return a value of 0 (zero). I've tried returning values with Write-Host and Write-Output, but I'm not sure if executing a script in this manner would send results back like this.

Run Program $WINDIR$\\Sysnative\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -file "$SUPPORTDIR$\myfile.ps1" (WAIT, get result into variable PSScriptResults)

Thanks very much.

Regards
Mark

I think that the only possible approach is with implementing something similar to this:https://stackoverflow.com/questions/62469810/get-powershell-script-output-from-c-app

Msandford,
'Sysnative' is not a folder within WINDIR and is not a variable within InstallAware...
Sysnative is terminology used within 'ActualInstaller' and means nothing to Installaware
