Question

I have been asked to change the script once again and when doing so I have ran into an issue with the script.
I have broken down the sections on the script into different sections so you can better see what i am trying to do. I am trying to choose between the TC, MonsterLock, and Cyc and have them do their own functions when i choose one of them.
The problem I am having is that once I choose one of them I can enter the next section and enter in the information for DATABASE1, DATABASE2,DATABASE3, and DATABASE4. But when I do so it loops at that section and constantly asks me
This script sets up DATABASE Staging
Sets up location you want to run staging
Sets up location you want to run staging
Sets up location you want to run staging
Sets up location you want to run staging
This happens everytime I choose tc, MonsterLock, or Cyc. I have information in the MonsterLock as you can see but it doesnt moce past the loop and start the commands that are located inside.
write-host "This script sets up DATABASE Staging"
$ProductionDistro = Read-Host -Prompt "Which production do you `enter code here`want to run?(TC/MonsterLock/Cyc)"
While($ProductionDistro -notmatch "(TC|MonsterLock|Cyc)"){
write-host "You have entered an error" -ForegroundColor Red
write-host "You must type TC or MonsterLock or Cyc"
write-host "you typed $ProductionDistro"
write-host "This script sets up DATABASE Staging"
$ProductionDistro = Read-Host -Prompt "Which production do you `enter code here`want to ru(TC/MonsterLock/Cyc)"
}
while($ProductionDistro -match $TC) {
write-host "Sets up location you want to run staging"
$ElementDistro = Read-Host -Prompt "Which Element do you want to run? (DATABASE1/DATABASE2/DATABASE3/DATABASE4/ALL)"
While($ElementDistro -notmatch "(DATABASE1|DATABASE2|DATABASE3|DATABASE4|ALL)") {
write-host "you have enterd an error" -ForegroundColor Red
write-host "You must type DATABASE1 or DATABASE2 or DATABASE3 or DATABASE4 or ALL"
write-host "you typed $ElementDistro"
write-host "set location you want to run staging"
$ElementDistro = Read-Host -Prompt "Which Element do you want to run? (DATABASE1/DATABASE2/DATABASE3/DATABASE4/ALL)"
}
this is the first while statemet
While($PrductionDistro -match $MonsterLock){
write-host "Sets up location you want to run staging"
$ElementDistro = Read-Host -Prompt "Which Element do you want to run? (DATABASE1/DATABASE2/DATABASE3/DATABASE4/ALL)"

Answer 1

The loop beginning while($ProductionDistro -match $TC) { does not appear to modify $ProductionDistro so once you get into that loop it will go round forever. The same appears to apply to the other while($ProductionDistro... loops.
For a while loop to terminate you must update some of the values used in the condition to make the condition no longer evaluate to something true.
