Get-Command *navserver* returns nothing in power shell

matthewtaing

Hi,

Tried to do some R&D on 2013's powershell functionality. Do I need to install the cmdlets separately (if it does, would you be kind enough to point me to the correct place for reference on how to install the cmdlets) or does it comes installed with the Server/Administration Tool option as I have these 2 options installed on a Windows Server 2008 R2 which comes with Powershell 2.0. But when I tried running it (as administrator) with the Get-Command *navserver* it returns nothing. Not sure what I'm doing wrong here as I found nothing on the web on how to troubleshoot this when it returns nothing.

Version build: 34298 updated with all the client hotfixes up until February and there's a NavAdminTool.PS1 file in the service folder but not sure how to run this.

Thanks

Where did you run this command?

in Cmd.exe or Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 Administration Shell

Ran it in Windows Powershell. Couldn't find Dynamics NAV administration shell, do you mean the NAV administration snap in?

You can find Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 Administration Shell in All Programs...please search

searched for Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2013 Administration Shell but couldn't find any, the options available are dev environment, rtc and nav administration snap-in. Attached is the screenshot of the options available in all programs on the server. I might have missed something during the installation. Are there any extra steps that I need to perform during installation to get it?

Thanks

If Admin Shell was not installed automatically, you can create a shortcut for the following target. Change the 70 to 71 if you are using NAV 2013 R2.

C:\Windows\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\PowerShell.exe -NoExit -ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned " & ' C:\Program Files\Microsoft Dynamics NAV\70\Service\NavAdminTool.ps1 ' "
