I have a main script that is running other scripts and loading the variables from those scripts using dot sourcing. The script runs fine interactively but when I schedule it to run it does not run the scripts I am dot sourcing. Any ideas?
I had a similar problem: My dot sourced scripts didn't execute when I ran the main script with run as administrator.
It turned out, that the base dir was different, when I ran the script as administrator. Try using the absolute path in your dot sourcing. If it works then, you can work out a better solution, like this:
$subScriptName = "MySubscript.ps1"
$subScriptPath = Join-Path -Path $callingDir -ChildPath $subScriptName
if (Test-Path $subScriptPath)
{
# use file from local folder
. $subScriptPath
}
else
{
# use central file (via PATH-Variable)
. $subScriptName
}
