Error while adding powershell host

Hi,

I have added powershell plugin in vCO.

While adding powershell host through workflow I am getting error message

Can't validate host:  Invocation of script $host threw exception (Dynamic  Script Module name : addPowerShellHost#15)

Any idea what goes wrong??

Which version of the plugin are you using?

What autorization are you using (Basic/Kerberos)?

Have you verified the connection with the WinRM host outside of vCO?

Not sure if you have already gone trough the PowerShell documetation.

There is chapter for configuring/testing the WinRm host configuration that might help you "Configure WinRM to Use HTTP".

Also couple of articles about configuring PowerShell Plugin:

Hope it helps.
