We have below az storage blob upload command in a powershell script named upload_file.ps1 that uploads a file to Azure storage as a blob.
$ErrorActionPreference = "Stop"
# Blob connection string parsed from a secure string
az storage blob upload --container-name "ftp" --connection-string "$blobConnStr" --name "testfile.txt" --file testfile.txt
There is no problem when executing this script directly. But after converting it into a Windows executable upload_file.exe using this PS2EXE tool, the execution fails with below exception.
ERROR: System.Management.Automation.PSInvocationStateInfo

To print out above verbose level message, I modified the ps2exe.ps1 script a bit as below.
if (powershell.InvocationStateInfo.State == PSInvocationState.Failed) {
ui.WriteErrorLine(powershell.InvocationStateInfo.ToString());
ui.WriteErrorLine(powershell.InvocationStateInfo.Reason.ToString());
ui.WriteErrorLine(powershell.InvocationStateInfo.State.ToString());
ui.WriteErrorLine(powershell.InvocationStateInfo.Reason.Message);
}
Not sure if there is any compatibility issue between Azure CLI and Windows executables. Would appreciate it a lot if someone with Windows experience could enlighten us on this.
