Hi all! This could be because we’re in an Azure web app rather than self-hosting. When I try to search the PowerShell Gallery for a module I know exists (e.g. “moodle”), PSU spins for a bit and then says “no data”. The log file has this exception: System.Management.Automation.CmdletInvocationExc…

Ah, brilliant - I’ll keep my eyes peeled :slight_smile:

@adam We might have a regression in the latest versions. On 2.8.1 if I try to search the gallery for a module, it spins for a second and says no results, but the log contains this exception: System.Management.Automation.CommandNotFoundException: The 'Find-Module' command was found in the module 'Po…

I tried running Find-Module from the integrated terminal and was met with this error: [ERROR] The term 'PackageManagement\Get-PackageProvider' is not recognized as a name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or executable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify tha…

I am seeing this alert on a new installation of the docker container. Running 2.8.3. Here are my modules: Directory: /opt/microsoft/powershell/7/Modules ModuleType Version PreRelease Name PSEdition ExportedCommands ---------- ------- ---------- ---- …

Have you had a chance to look at this one, @adam ? Sounds like it might not just be me that can’t search for modules since updating to 2.8.1. We’re on 2.8.3 now and still having the same issue.

Ah bummer. It was working in a previous version! I will keep an eye out for the official 2.9 release.

That’s weird. We aren’t doing anything different in terms of how we look up modules so I’m surprised that it used to work for you. The difference in more recent versions is that we include the NuGet package provider DLL but that didn’t solve it, it seems.

You and I got it working earlier in this thread. Your suggestion of modifying the module path had fixed it. But something in 2.8 broke it again.

:smiley: OK I just updated to 2.9.0 and the issue is still there. To recap, my “on startup” script has this (which made it work prior to 2.8): # Remove classic PowerShell module path [Environment]::SetEnvironmentVariable("PSModulePath", 'D:\local\UserProfile\Documents\PowerShell\Modules;D:\Progra…

We have an issue overall with the integration to PackageManagement. Seems to work when you have the provider installed manually but it doesn’t work when installed as a service or in an Azure Web App. Still an active issue. Recently, had some discussion here about it.
