    I am creating installer for management pack. Last step is importing of MP.
    Here is my script:


    param ($Filepath)

$rootMS="localhost"

add-pssnapin "Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.OperationsManager.Client";

set-location "OperationsManagerMonitoring::";

new-managementGroupConnection -ConnectionString:$rootMS;

install-managementpack -filepath $filepath

    The problem is in script starting.
    powershell.exe 'c:\program files\my managementpack\my powershell script.ps1' 'c:\program files\my managementpack\my mp.mp'
    does not work
    powershell.exe "c:\program files\my managementpack\my powershell script.ps1" "c:\program files\my managementpack\my mp.mp"
    does not work too.
    What is the correct syntax?

    You mean in script?
    And how shoul I execute this script?

    this way:
    powershell.exe "c:\program files\my managementpack\my powershell script.ps1" "c:\program files\my managementpack\my mp.mp"
    or this:
    powershell.exe 'c:\program files\my managementpack\my powershell script.ps1' 'c:\program files\my managementpack\my mp.mp'

    It does not work.

    >powershell "c:\program files\my managementpack\my powershell script.ps1" 'c:\program files\my managementpack\my mp.mp'
    The term c:\program' is not recognized as the name of a cmdlet, function, script file, or operable program. Check the spelling of the name, or if a path was included, verify that the path is correct and try again.

    Thank you, Mike. It works. Can you give me advice, where can I read about such powershell syntax things - -command, &, ", ', etc?

    I'm afraid I don't have any sources to recommend.  It's a lot of web searching for me.  :-(

    It works in windows x86, but it does not work in windows x64. My installer (inno setup) is x86, so when it executes powershell.exe with parameters the problem begins.
    Here is a string from installer:

    Filename: "powershell.exe"; WorkingDir: "{tmp}"; Parameters: "-command ""& '{tmp}\install-MP.ps1'"" '{tmp}\MyMP.mp'"; StatusMsg: "Importing Management Pack. Please wait, this operation can take up to several minutes."; Flags: waituntilterminated runhidden

    Here is an output from powershell:

    Add-PSSnapin : No Windows PowerShell Snap-ins are available for version 1.
    At C:\Users\SCOM-S~1\AppData\Local\Temp\2\is-R61LK.tmp\install-MP.ps1:3 char:13
    + add-pssnapin <<<< "Microsoft.EnterpriseManagement.OperationsManager.Client";
    Set-Location : Cannot find a provider with name 'OperationsManagerMonitoring'.
    At C:\Users\SCOM-S~1\AppData\Local\Temp\2\is-R61LK.tmp\install-MP.ps1:4 char:13
    + set-location <<<< "OperationsManagerMonitoring::";
    The term 'new-managementGroupConnection' is not recognized as a cmdlet, functio
    n, operable program, or script file. Verify the term and try again.
    At C:\Users\SCOM-S~1\AppData\Local\Temp\2\is-R61LK.tmp\install-MP.ps1:5 char:30
    + new-managementGroupConnection <<<< -ConnectionString:$rootMS;
    The term 'install-managementpack' is not recognized as a cmdlet, function, oper
    able program, or script file. Verify the term and try again.
    At C:\Users\SCOM-S~1\AppData\Local\Temp\2\is-R61LK.tmp\install-MP.ps1:6 char:23
    + install-managementpack <<<< -filepath "$($filepath)


    I tried this, but it  did not help:

    Filename: "{syswow64}\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe"; WorkingDir: "{tmp}"; Parameters: "-command ""& '{tmp}\install-MP.ps1'"" '{tmp}\MyMP.mp'"; StatusMsg: "Importing Management Pack. Please wait, this operation can take up to several minutes."; Flags: waituntilterminated


    I think I've found a decision. http://blogs.msdn.com/mstehle/archive/2007/01/24/kb-preview-error-no-windows-powershell-snap-ins-when-loading-exchange-powershell-snap-in.aspx
