    Installing PowerShell dependent features on W2K8 with PowerShell CTP

    I have a Windows Server 2008 with the PowerShell 2 CTP installed. I was
    attempting to install a role/feature that requires PowerShell 1.0 so I
    received a polite little dialog telling me PowerShell 1.0 was required
    and I needed to install it.



    Can anyone tell me the best way to deal with this "issue". Thanks.

    Hi Greg

    There is a similar issue when you want to install Exchange 2007 mgmt tools
    on a machine that has PowerShell CTP already installed.
    Try to execute:

    set-itemproperty "HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell\1" PID "89383-100-0001260-04309"

    It will add the missing PowerShell v1 registry key. Try to install the server
    role/feature and then delete the key.

    That doesn't appear to work, at least for adding the PowerShell snap-in
    for the Server 2008 command-line backup tools.

    I'm going to look into it. I just need to find something on how the
    Server Manager works under the covers.

    Thanks for the info. I can't test against 2008, probably in the next few
    days

    Re: Installing PowerShell dependent features on W2K8 with PowerShell CTP

    Thanks Marco. That is exactly what I was trying to install -- the backup
    tools command line scripts.

    I wonder what would happen if I installed PowerShell 1 and then tried to
    install PowerShell CTP over the top? I'll give it a try when I have the
    time.

    Re: Installing PowerShell dependent features on W2K8 with PowerShell CTP


    I don't think that will work.

    I guess the thing to do would be to install PS V1, install all
    features and roles that depend on PS. Uninstall PS and reinstall
    CTP2:-)

    YMMV - as they say...

    Re: Installing PowerShell dependent features on W2K8 with PowerShell CTP

    I had no problems installing PowerShell CTP2 on server 2008 and load the
    Windows.ServerBackup snap-in.
    What role were you trying to install?

    Re: Installing PowerShell dependent features on W2K8 with PowerShell CTP

    Won't work. Server Manager will uninstall the backup cmdline tools, since it
    knows there's a dependency.

    Yup. Just not the command line tools feature option for it.
