I have a script to add a Node and then Custom Properties. I wrote the script in PowerShell IDE and when I run it in IDE it works. When I save it and run it from a PowerShell window it fails.
I am not running in x86, I am running as Adminstrator.
I am getting the following errors-
Get-SwisObject : Cannot bind argument to parameter 'SwisConnection' because it is null.
