Hi Marvin,
That was the issue. I removed the quotes from cmdName and the compiler
identified it as a variable instead of a string.
So I updated the code, removing the quotes from cmdName and it compiled,
but I'm seeing the err output now and exit status 1 instead of actual
output from the commands in the powershell script. Any ideas why the
program is giving me the error out instead of running the powershell
script?
CODE:
package main
import (
"fmt"
"os"
"os/exec"
)
func main() {
cmdName := "C:\\Windows\\System32\\WindowsPowerShell\\v1.0\\powershell.exe"
out, err := exec.Command(cmdName, "script.ps1").Output()
if err != nil {
fmt.Fprintln(os.Stderr, "Error creating StdoutPipe for Cmd", err)
}
fmt.Println(string(out))
}
ERROR:
Error creating StdoutPipe for Cmd exit status 1
