powershell get-content

Is UAC enabled on the target computer?

Nope, UAC is off.  WinRM is running, I configured the powershell security, per the documentation.  I've tried local and remote execution, varying credentials.   My mouse sighs heavily whenever I move it close to the "Test" button

Script is as so: $Lines = Get-Content -path "C:\Windows\tracing\logfile.log" foreach ($Line in $Lines){ if ($Line -like "*Successful*"){$Health = "good"} } I get this error when testing the script: Get-Content : Cannot find path 'C:\Windows\tracing\logfile.log' because it does not exist. But it does exist, and I am using sufficient credentials.

Hi Dave,

have you tried using the Log Parser template? Log Parser (PowerShell)  If so are you getting the same results as your own powershell script?

This is what I get:

Message: File C:\Windows\tracing\logfile.log not found

Have you attempted to move a copy of the file outside of that directory and test it? Have you turned on debug logging to see if it may shed more light on why it can't find the file? My thininking is that because it is in the windows directory SolarWinds is having a hard time accessing it either because of permissions, etc.

When im debugging a template I often just change the output to $env:username and $env:computername to confirm that my script is running under the expected account and on the expected system.

I've tried moving it to the root of c:, same thing.

Great idea, and I think that uncovered the issue.  It is running on the poller, running as the machine account, even though I specified alternate credentials, and selected a different machine.

In the powershell component setting there is an option of local or remote execution, sounds like you want to use remote execution in this case

When I use that I get Output - not defined
