NimbostratusQuestion about error duirng adding inControlSnapIn in PowerShell
I am new to Powershell and icontrol. I was setting up the Powershell to use icontrol. When I tried to add iControlSnapIn using the command Add-PSSnapIn iControlSnapIn. The following error was displaying. Does anyone have any idea how to fix it? Thank you.
PS> Add-PSSnapIn iControlSnapIn Add-PSSnapin : Cannot load Windows PowerShell snap-in iControlSnapIn because of the following error: The Windows PowerShell snap-in module C:\Program Files (x86)\F5 Networks\iControlSnapIn\iControlSnapin.dll does not have required Windows PowerShell snap-in strong name iControlSnapIn, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null.

bowlingbeI was beating my head against a wall trying to find how to correct this exact same issue after re-installing the icontrolsnapin on my machine. Running this in powershell fixed the issue and I was able to load the snapin via add-pssnapin icontrolsnapin.
c:\windows\Microsoft.Net\Framework64\v2.0.50727\installutil.exe iControlSnapin.dll /LogFile=
