Update Manager PSCLI crashing

Hello,

i liked to test the PSCLI with 5.5. Installed it on windows 2008 R2 and 2012.

But once i start command "get-patch" or other cmdlet from the PSCLI  of the UM  then the powershell is crashing.

Problem Event Name: APPCRASH

Application Name: Powershell:

Application Version: 6.3.9600.16406

Fault Module Name: ntdll.dll

tested powershell 3.0 and 4.0 on 2012. and i use  5.5 powercli also.

Anybode else same problem?

best regards

Max

Is the version of the Update Manager synced with the vSphere version ?

In other words, use v5 of the pssnapin for vSphere 5, and 5.5 for vSphere 5.5

Hi LucD,

thx for Answer.

Yes everything is used with same Version.

so

vSphere 5.5  and UM 5.5 pssnapin

i tested it on 2 different OS Versions also.  So very strange ;(

Is theire a special important task for pushing that pssnapin? after the installer,.....

Best regards

Can you try it in PowerShell v3, but start in v2 mode (powershell.exe -version 2).

And you run this in 32-bit mode ?
