Adding 100 users in powershell script not working - powershell

I am trying to add 100 user accounts with PowerShell in my domain system in Windows. I get an error message called "You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression" when running the script for import.
Error Message:
You cannot call a method on a null-valued expression.

Import-Module ActiveDirectory

if (Test-Path $csvpath) {
#$csvpath = "C:\script\produksjonsbrukereImport.csv"

Upload file to SharePoint

I would like to create a program in PowerShell to upload files to Sharepoint on schedule (using Task Scheduler)
I was looking for solution and I found this interesting article.
Based on this I wrote this script below:
Import-Module Microsoft.Online.Sharepoint.Powershell -DisableNameChecking;
(System.Reflection.Assembly)::LoadWithPartialName("System.IO.MemoryStream")
Clear-Host
$cred = Get-Credential "emailaddress#domain.com"
$credentials = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.SharePointOnlineCredentials($cred.Username, $cred.Password)
$clientContext = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.ClientContext("https://")
$clientCOntext.Credentials = $credentials
if (!$clientContext.ServerObjectIsNull.Value) {Write-host "Connected to site" -ForegroundColor Green}
Function UploadFileToLibrary(){
$docLib - $clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("IT Documents");
$clientContext.Load($docLib);
$clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
$rootFolder = $docLib.RootFolder
$Folder = "\\10.x.x.x\xpbuild$\IT\Level0\scresult\Upload";
$FilesInRoot = Get-ChildItem - Path $Folder | ? {$_.psIsContainer -eq $False}
Foreach ($File in ($FilesInRoot))
{
$startDTM = (Get-Date)
}Write-Host "Uploading File" $File.Name "to" $docLib.Title -ForegroundColor Blue
UploadFile $rootFolder $File $false
$endDTM = (Get-Date)
Write-Host "Total Elapsed Time : $(($endDTM-$startDTM).totalseconds) seconds"
}
Function UploadFile ($SPListFolder, $File, $CheckInRequired){
$FileStream = New-Object IO.FileStream($File.FullName,[System.IO.FileMode]::Open)
$FileCreationInfo = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.FileCreationInformation
$FileCreationInfo.Overwrite = $True
$FileCreationInfo.ContentStream = $FileStream
$FileCreationInfo.Url = $File
$UploadedFile = $SPListFolder.Files.Add($FileCreationInfo)
If($CheckInRequired){
$clientContext.Load($UploadedFile)
$clientContext.ExecuteQuery()
If($uploadedFile.CheckOutType -ne "none"){
$UploadedFile.CheckIn("Checked in by Administrator", [Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.CheckinType]::MajorCheckIn)
}
}
$clientContext.Load($UploadedFile)
$clientContext.ExecuteQuery()
}
UploadFileToLibrary
When I tried to execute this I see that connection is active but I got an error:
Method invocation failed because [Microsoft.SharePoint.Client.List] does not contain a method named 'op_Subtraction'.

I cannot tell if any new problem occur once you fix that one, but given that the 2nd and 3rd error is caused by incorrect assignment of $docLib variable, changing - to =should resolve these three:
HERE |
$docLib = $clientContext.Web.Lists.GetByTitle("IT Documents");
# Below uses $docLib so it cannot be executed properly unless $docLib is assigned correct value
$clientContext.Load($docLib);
# And below fails as the above is not executed successfully
$clientContext.ExecuteQuery();

Getting txt not found error when running this script

I get this error when running this script:
Exception calling "Matches" with "1" argument(s): "Value cannot be
null. Parameter name: input" At V:\compiler\shitter2.ps1:3 char:1
+ $tables = $regex.matches((GC v:\compiler\test.txt -raw)).groups.value
+ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : ArgumentNullException
Here is the script code:
$Path = 'V:\compiler\po.htm'
[regex]$regex = "(?s)<TABLE ID=.*?</TABLE>"
$tables = $regex.matches((GC v:\compiler\test.txt -raw)).groups.value
ForEach($String in $tables){
$table = $string.split("`n")
$CurTable = #()
$CurTableName = ([regex]'TABLE ID="
([^"]*)"').matches($table[0]).groups[1].value
$CurTable += ($table[1] -replace "</B></TH><TH><B>",",") -replace "</?
(TR|TH|B)>"
$CurTable += $table[2..($table.count-2)]|ForEach{$_ -replace "</TD>
<TD>","," -replace "</?T(D|R)>"}
$CurTable | convertfrom-csv | export-csv "$CurTableName.csv" -notype
}
You probably forgot the access the entry using [1]:
$tables = $regex.matches((GC v:\compiler\test.txt -raw)).groups[1].value

Adding multiple users to AD

This script was working just fine today while testing. I made a few changes and started getting an error. I then went back to the very original script I got from the internet and now even it does not work. The errors are:

Here is the script. What am I doing wrong?
function Select-FileDialog {
param(
[string]$Title,
[string]$Directory,
[string]$Filter = "CSV Files(*.csv)|*.csv"

$objForm.InitialDirectory = $Directory
$objForm.Filter = $Filter
$objForm.Title = $Title
$objForm.ShowHelp = $true
$Show = $objForm.ShowDialog()
if ($Show -eq "OK") {
return $objForm.FileName
} else {
exit
}
}
$FileName = Select-FileDialog -Title "Import an CSV file" -Directory "c:\"
$SelectOU = "OU=Test2,OU=Users,OU=Domain Controllers"
$domain = [System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.Domain]::GetComputerDomain()
$DomainDN = (([System.DirectoryServices.ActiveDirectory.Forest]::GetCurrentForest()).Domains | ? {$_.Name -eq $domain}).GetDirectoryEntry().distinguishedName
$final = "LDAP://$DomainDN"
$DomainPath = [ADSI]"$final"
$UserInformation = Import-Csv $FileName
$OUPath = "LDAP://$SelectOU,$DomainDN"
$UserPath = [ADSI]"$OUPath"
foreach ($User in $UserInformation) {
$CN = $User.samAccountName
$SN = $User.Surname
$Given = $User.givenName
$samAccountName = $User.samAccountName
$Display = $User.DisplayName
$LABUser = $UserPath.Create("User", "CN=$CN")
Write-Host "Please Wait..."
$LABUser.Put("samAccountName", $samAccountName)
$LABUser.Put("sn", $SN)
$LABUser.Put("givenName", $Given)
$LABUser.Put("displayName", $Display)
$LABUser.Put("userPrincipalName", "$samAccountName#$domain")
$LABUser.SetInfo()
$Pwrd = $User.Password
$LABUser.psbase.invoke("setPassword", $Pwrd)
$LABUser.psbase.invokeSet("AccountDisabled", $false)
$LABUser.psbase.CommitChanges()
}
Write-Host "Script Completed"
Can you please try Removing the Quotes from
1) LABUser assignment i.e. CN = $CN.
2) Remove the CN = from that line.
Try it one by one i hope you get your answer.
