I want to execute .ps1 file in jmeter. I have pass the parameter as in image,but in output facing errors.The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect.
Though the filename, directory name are correct.
Here is your problem:
Remove that quotation mark and everything should start working as expected
In general, you are making things overcomplicated.
Why do you need these cmd /c? Why just don't call powershell directly?
Normally powershell is in Windows PATH, there is no need to provide full path to it
So configure your OS Process Sampler as:
Command: powershell
Parameter: D:\Software\apache=jmeter-3.0\apache-jmeter-3.0\bin\TIP.ps1
See How to Run External Commands and Programs Locally and Remotely from JMeter article for more information on invoking 3rd-party processes from your JMeter test.
I know this is an old thread but since the response was not correct for me I found the solution to be this:
Using the OS Process Sampler you need to add as command powershell.exe and as variables exactly the following:
-executionpolicy
bypass
-file
fullpathToYourScript.ps1
This worked perfectly fine for me.

I am running into a problem with a PowerShell script. I want to add a Microsoft store app with a PowerShell command:
Add-Appxpackage -path C:\Temp\whiteboard.appx
The command is working fine, but only for 1 user not for everyone. It must be installed for everyone. How can that be done?
As #WafflesAndCustard already mentioned, the issue for executing the script is the ExecutionPolicy.
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_execution_policies?view=powershell-7
The PowerShell-Script Execution takes another road as you probably might think of ... PS-User-Policy takes precedence over PS-Computer-Policy, but Local- (gpedit) and Domain-Policies (gpmc) overrides anything and takes the final precedence (Domain policies have highest priority)
By default -> no PowerShell Script execution is allowed.
When you want to use your script for all users, without predefining the PS-executionpolicy, you should use the native command like
powershell.exe -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -Script ....
BUT, and that's really IMPORTANT when it comes to security:
Please don't use the temp folder as this is usual something everybody can write to!
E.g. a user/program can place a malicious executable file into that folder with same name and your task (or whatever) will execute it with high privileges.
I created a freestyle job in Jenkins that I just set up (latest version).
I added parameters to it. One of those is a Options selection for ReleaseType with the options of Staging and Release.
One of the build steps is executing a remote command on the server when the site is uploaded to. It uses the Execute Windows Batch Command build step.
Here is the command line (with things made generic):
sexec myuser#mysite.com -pw=mypassword -cmd="PowerShell -Command ""C:\batch\bvCopyFast.ps1 C:\inetpub\mysite${ReleaseType}\siteLoad C:\inetpub\mysite${ReleaseType}\site""
Basically I am executing a powershell command that uses Robocopy to copy the files from the upload folder to the actual release folder for the site.
As you can see I need to have the ${ReleaseType} replaced with the actual value. The problem is that when this gets executed it isn't doing the substitution. I just uses that literal value in the command and that doesn't work.
If you use the -Command parameter it implies you are going to write raw PowerShell code in between the quotation marks that follow (allow you can call a script as you have).
PowerShell -Command "Get-Date; pause;"
To call a PowerShell script file you should use:
PowerShell -File "Your-Script.ps1 -Parameter1 Argument1 -Parameter2 Argument2"
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/scripting/components/console/powershell.exe-command-line-help?view=powershell-6
I would write a PowerShell script that accepted your root path and the releaseType as arguments and execute that.
Param($rootPath,$releaseType)
{
robocopy "$($rootPath)\$($releaseType)\siteLoad" "$($rootPath)\$($releaseType)\site"
}
I have never used Jenkins so I hope this works as I expect it to!
sexec myuser#mysite.com -pw=mypassword -cmd=""PowerShell -File 'C:\batch\newScript.ps1' -RootPath 'c:\inetpub\mysite' -ReleaseType {ReleaseType}""
I'm trying to run a Sync from MSBuild (From Powershell) that also includes Pre Sync Commands.
I am unable to get the commands right. I've tried multiple ways, but the final way I'm up to is :
[string[]]$msdeployArgs = #(
"-verb:sync",
"-preSync:runCommand='$preSyncCommand',waitInterval=30000",
"-source:dirPath=$sourceFolder",
"-dest:computerName=$serverName,userName=$username,password=$password,authType=basic,dirPath=$serviceFolder",
"-postSync:runCommand=$postSyncCommand,waitInterval=30000"
)
& "C:\Program Files (x86)\IIS\Microsoft Web Deploy V3\msdeploy.exe" $msdeployArgs
I get the following error.
Error: Unrecognized argument
'"-preSync:runCommand='F:\Projects\Unleashed\Release_Scripts\WindowsServices\deployTopShelfServicePreCommands.cmd
Unleashed.Maintenance.JobScheduler
C:\MyCompany\Services\MyCompany.Maintenance.JobScheduler',waitInterval=30000"'.
All arguments must begin with "-".
Note that after the PreSyncCommand, is params that I want to pass to the CMD file (For it to know where to uninstall the existing service from etc.
I've ran that params via EchoArgs.exe, and the args are fine.
If it matters (It might), I'm running the powershell script from TeamCity.
I've found the issue. As it turns out, it isn't powershell with the issue, but MSDeploy. MSDeploy as far as I can see does not allow you to pass batch files with parameters. Removing the parameters works fine (But then you need to hardcode them in your batch file, or work out some other way of generating the bat files on the fly).
I have a Jenkins (1.493) project that uses the Jenkins PowerShell build step to execute a PowerShell script. Inside that script I want to invoke another script that is stored inside a file. I have now reduced it to the following:
Script inside Jenkins PowerShell build step:
& "\\stemmer.local\sidevelopment\cvdev\devbase\jenkins\PowerShell\Test.ps1"
Content of Test.ps1:
write-host 'Hello world!'
Whenever this Jenkins project executes, the PowerShell build step hangs indefinitely.
Things I have tried/verified so far:
Adding some output before the invocation of Test.ps1 shows me that the Jenkins PowerShell script is being execute normally up to the point where Test.ps1 is called.
The file Test.ps1 exists and is reachable from the build slave that executes the script. If I alter the file's name, I get the expected error message from PowerShell...
Exchanging the " for ' in the 1st script does not change anything. Also, using dot-sourcing rather than & does not help.
The file Test.ps1 can be executed properly from the powershell itself using the same command line that is being used in the Jenkins PowerShell script.
The execution policy for PowerShell has been set to unrestricted on my development host as well as on the Jenkins build slave.
I've tried replacing the PowerShell build step with a Windows batch command build step that looks like this:powershell.exe -InputFormat None -File "\\stemmer.local\sidevelopment\cvdev\devbase\jenkins\PowerShell\Test.ps1"and played around a little with the parameters of powershell.exe, but the results were - in those cases that were syntactically and otherwise correct as far as I can tell - always the same.
I only found few references to problems that sounded similar, but none of the approaches mentioned elsewhere did help me fix this. I am absolutely puzzled, and wondering whether someone encountered this issue before (and maybe even got a scenario like the one I have in mind running).
Thanks a lot for any input!

have you tried to set execution policy to bypass ?
Copy the script file locally, then invoke it from within the Jenkins PowerShell plugin - that way it works as expected.
I got some strange behaviour when executing a powershell script.
When I run my script using the ISE it works just fine.
When I open Powershell.exe and run my script it works just fine.
When I open cmd, and start my script using powershell.exe -noexit
./myscript.ps1, myscript works just fine.
When I double-click myscript however, powershell opens for some milliseconds, I see that it shows some error (red font) and the powershell window closes. I'm unable to track down the error causing this problem since the powershell windows closes to fast.
I even tried one single big try-catch block around my hole script, catching any [Exception] and writing it down to a log file. However: the log file is not generated (catch is not called).
How can I track that issue? What could possibly be causing the trouble?
Please note that my execution-policy is set to unrestricted.
Before trying the suggestion invoke this to see your current settings (if you want restore them later):
cmd /c FType Microsoft.PowerShellScript.1
Then invoke this (note that you will change how your scripts are invoked "from explorer" by this):
cmd /c #"
FType Microsoft.PowerShellScript.1=$PSHOME\powershell.exe -NoExit . "'%1'" %*
"#
Then double-click the script, it should not exit, -NoExit does the trick. See your error messages and solve the problems.
But now all your scripts invoked "from explorer" keep their console opened. You may then
remove -NoExit from the above command and run it again or restore your
original settings.
Some details and one good way to invoke scripts in PS v2 is here.
Unfortunately it is broken in PS v3 - submitted issue.
by default, for security reason when you double clic on a .ps1 file the action is : Edit file, not Run file .
to execute your script : right-click on it and choose run with powershell
I also wasn’t able to run a script by double clicking it although running it manually worked without a problem. I have found out that the problem was in the path. When I ran a script from a path that contained spaces, such as:
C:\Users\john doe\Documents\Sample.ps1
The scipt failed to run. Moving the script to:
C:\Scripts\Sample.ps1
Which has no spaces, solved the problem.
This is most likely an issue with your local Execution Policy.
By default, Powershell is configured to NOT run scripts that are unsigned (even local ones). If you've not signed your scripts, then changing your default double-click 'action' in Windows will have no effect - Powershell will open, read the execution policy, check the script's signature, and finding none, will abort with an error.
In Powershell:
Help about_execution_policies
gives you all the gory details, as well as ways to allow unsigned scripts to run (within reason - you'd probably not want to run remote ones, only ones you've saved onto the system).
EDIT: I see at the tail end of your question that you've set Execution Policy to 'unrestricted' which SHOULD allow the script to run. However, this might be useful info for others running into execution policy issues.
If you would catch the error you will most likely see this
The file cannot be loaded. The file is not
digitally signed. The script will not execute on the system. Please
see "Get-Help about_signing" for more details.
Because you are able to run it from the shell you started yourself, and not with the right mouse button click "Run With PowerShell", I bet you have x64 system. Manually you are starting the one version of PowerShell where execution policy is configured, while with the right click the other version of the PowerShell is started.
Try to start both version x64 and x86 version and check for security policies in each
Get-ExecutionPolicy
I was in exactly the same situation as described in the question : my script worked everywhere except when double-clicking.* When I double-clicked a powershell windows would open but then it will close after a second or so. My execution-policy is also set to unrestricted.
I tried the selected answer concerning FType Microsoft.PowerShellScript.1 but it didn't change anything.
The only solution I found was a work around: create a bat file which start the powershell.
Create a file, copy this and modify the path : powershell.exe -File "C:\Users\user\script\myscript.ps1"
Save it as a .bat
Double-click the bat
I also used .ahk to start my powershell with a shorcut and it didn't work when pointing directly to the powershell. I had to point to the .bat
