PowerShellGet | PowerShellGet is the package manager for PowerShell | Command Line Interface library

I installed powershell (pwsh) on Ubuntu 20.4. I am trying to manage some Sharepoint stuff. I did the following:

I want to install Docker and so I tried the below command which gave an error

PS C:\Windows\system32> Install-Module -Name DockerMsftProvider PackageManagement\Install-Package : No match was found for the specified search criteria and module name 'DockerMsftProvider'. Try Get-PSRepository to see all available registered module repositories. At C:\Program Files\ WindowsPowerShell\ Modules\ PowerShellGet\ 1.0.0.1\ PSModule .psm1:1772 char:21 $null = PackageManagement\Install-Package @PSBoundParameters CategoryInfo : ObjectNotFound: (Microsoft.Power....InstallPackage:InstallPackage) [Install-Package], Exception + FullyQualifiedErrorId : NoMatchFoundForCriteria, Microsoft.PowerShell.PackageManagement.Cmdlets.InstallPackage

even Install-Module -Name DockerMsftProvider -Repository PSGallery -Force gave the same error.

I tried the below resources and still its the same. I am not able to register a PSRepository. Only when this is installed I can install Docker in Windows Server. I spent hours to solve this still at 0% progress. Registering the PSRepository (Register-PSRepository -Default -InstallationPolicy Trusted) went fine without any errors but still its not visible.

Any possible help to solve this?

I know nothing of PowerShell, but I wanted to install this: https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/lolcat/

So, I start PowerShell as administrator, and:

I have tried using the basic commands from multiple websites and videos, but after installing AWS.Tools.Installer and AWS.Tools.S3 I get the same error when trying to use a command:

I'm trying to run Docker in process isolation mode on Windows Server 2019 (Docker Desktop does not work here, my VPS does not support Hyper-V). I run this in PowerShell (all in Administrator mode) docker run -it --isolation=process mcr.microsoft.com/windows/servercore:ltsc2019 cmd.exe /c ping 127.0.0.1 -t

Then I get error:

docker: error during connect: In the default daemon configuration on Windows, the docker client must be run with elevated privileges to connect.: Post http://%2F%2F.%2Fpipe%2Fdocker_engine/v1.24/containers/create: open //./pipe/docker_engine: The system cannot find the file specified. See 'docker run --help'.

I ran command & 'C:\Program Files\Docker\DockerCli.exe' -SwitchDaemon, as suggested here: Docker cannot start on Windows

However, DockerCli.exe does not exist in a clean Docker install:

As suggested here I tried copying the file DockerCli.exe from my local Windows 10 Docker Desktop installation and reran, but then I get:

Unhandled Exception: System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'Docker.Core, Version=3.0.0.50646, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified. at Docker.Cli.MainBackendCli.Run(IReadOnlyCollection`1 args) at Docker.Cli.MainBackendCli.Main(String[] args)

Regardless, copying files from Docker Desktop does not feel like the right approach.

I then ran dockerd in PowerShell since that's the only other executable in that folder:

Since I'm a newbie, I'm not sure if I just started a container and if so, which one, I just see start., but no idea where that comes from or how I can configure it.

UPDATE 1

Based on Peter Wishart's suggestion I tried uninstall-Package -Name docker, but then I get

Trying to install Docker in process isolation on Windows Server 2019 and following these steps. (I can't use Hyper-V on this server) when running PowerShell in admin mode.

I however get the error

Get-PackageProvider : A parameter cannot be found that matches parameter name 'ListAvailableget-packagesource'

I also tried Install-Package -Name docker -ProviderName DockerMsftProvider I then get:

I recently created an Azure Artifacts feed for one of the projects in my organization. I followed the instructions at this link.

Most things work. In particular, I'm able to:

• Create the feed
• Use nuget to push a package to said feed
• Register the feed with PowerShell via Register-PSRepository
• Run Find-Module -Repository

The last bit -- running Find-Module -- generates the expected output, viz., a single module with the expected version, name, and description. However, I get the following message when I attempt Install-Module:

Here's what I ended up doing to publish my bin\MyModule.0.1.0.nupkg module to PSGallery:

1. Rename bin\MyModule.0.1.0.nupkg to bin\MyModule.0.1.0.zip
2. Extract bin\MyModule.0.1.0.zip to bin\MyModule\ (the name of the extracted folder had to match the name of the .psd1 file inside, so in my case there was now a bin\MyModule\MyModule.psd1 file).
3. Delete the [Content_Types].xml file from inside the extracted folder (not deleting this causes an error when you try to download and install the module from PSGallery, seemingly caused by 2 copies of that file being present in the resulting .nupkg).

Then I was able to run this command:

I'm trying to take advantage of the PowerShell Gallery which requires Install-Module. For some reason I cannot get this to work on any computer I have access to:
