Hi folks,
Is there someone who deploys successfully PowerShell Modules to powershellgallery.com with the PackageManagement Framework?

I'm working on this for about a week now and running always into NuGet errors while using Publish-Module.

Error example: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/OCram85/ponduit/build/1.3.65

I already tried to reinstall the NuGet Package Provider:

Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion '2.8.5.201' -Force -Verbose

For Details see: https://github.com/OCram85/Ponduit/blob/dev/tools/AppVeyor.psm1#L88

Thanks for your help guys!

   Hi Marco,

   Indeed it appears to be an issue you found with WMF5 image you are using. However I see that installing package provider fixes it at least for me.

   This simple YAML works OK

   image: WMF 5
   install:
   - ps: Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion '2.8.5.201' -Force -Verbose
   build_script:
   - ps: Get-PackageProvider -ListAvailable
   - ps: Get-PackageProvider -Name NuGet
   

   Please try to add this at install stage the same way and let us know if this helped.

   Thanks!
   Ilya.

   Hi,
   thanks for the help. Meanwhile I fixed it and came across the same solution you suggested.

   Function Invoke-AppVeyorPSGallery() {
       [CmdletBinding()]
       Param()
       Expand-Archive -Path '.\bin\Ponduit.zip' -DestinationPath 'C:\Users\appveyor\Documents\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\Ponduit\' -Verbose
       Import-Module -Name 'Ponduit' -Verbose -Force
       Write-Host "Available Package Provider:" -ForegroundColor Yellow
       Get-PackageProvider -ListAvailable
       Write-Host "Available Package Sources:" -ForegroundColor Yellow
       Get-PackageSource
       Try {
           Write-Host "Try to get NuGet Provider:" -ForegroundColor Yellow
           Get-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -ErrorAction Stop
       }
       Catch {
           Write-Host "Installing NuGet..." -ForegroundColor Yellow
           Install-PackageProvider -Name NuGet -MinimumVersion '2.8.5.201' -Force -Verbose
           Import-PackageProvider NuGet -MinimumVersion '2.8.5.201' -Force
       }
       Try {
           If ($env:APPVEYOR_REPO_BRANCH -eq 'master') {
               Write-Host "try to publish module" -ForegroundColor Yellow
               Publish-Module -Name 'Ponduit' -NuGetApiKey $env:NuGetToken -Verbose -Force
           }
           Else {
               Write-Host "Skip publishing to PS Gallery because we are on $($env:APPVEYOR_REPO_BRANCH) branch." -ForegroundColor Yellow
               # had to remve the publish-Module statement bacause it would publish although the -WhatIf is given.
               # Publish-Module -Name 'Ponduit' -NuGetApiKey $env:NuGetToken -Verbose -WhatIf
           }
       }
       Catch {
           $MsgParams = @{
               Message = 'Could not delpoy module to PSGallery.'
               Category = 'Error'
               Details = $_.Exception.Message
           }
           Add-AppveyorMessage @MsgParams
           Throw $MsgParams.Message
       }
   }
   

   Thanks! \//_
