So first, the following worked fine 3 days ago against the same sharepoint server, works fine against other sharepoint servers in the farm, and after I did something I’ll elaborate on later works fine again.
But for 3 days, I could constantly break my runspace by doing the following
$sess = new-pssession –computername $comp –Credential $cred –Authentication CredSSP
so far so good
Enter-PSSession $sess
so far so good
Add-PSSnapin Microsoft.SharePoint.PowerShell
Still good
I can do 0 or more different Sharepoint gets, like Get-SPServer
But then when I do:
Get-SPServiceApplication
I get:
Processing data for a remote command failed with the following error message: The WSMan provider host process did not return a proper response. A provider in the host process may have behaved improperly. For more information, see the about _Remote_Troubleshooting Help topic.
The session kicks back to my main session, and the runspace is broken.
This was consistent, and I’m not sure why. I can run it fine against other servers in the farm, and could run it against this server up until a few days ago
Whats interesting is what "FIXED" it.
So I figured to investigate further I could Terminal Services into the actual machine and run it locally. I did that and it ran locally without error, then AFTER that it ran normally through remoting as well.
Does anybody have a clue what is going on?
