Runspace.Open() sometimes completes without the specified ImportPSModules becoming available #7377
Description
Usually when a module is specified using InitialSessionState.ImportPSModule() and Runspace.Open() is invoked that module is imported into the runspace. It is then output when Get-Module is invoked in the runspace. Sometimes, however, the specified module is not imported (or at least is not available using Get-Module) despite that Runspace.Open() succeeded.
There seems to be variation from run-to-run of this phenomenon:
- some modules never import successfully
- some modules always import successfully
- some modules import successfully only sometimes
Steps to reproduce
foreach ( $module in Get-Module -ListAvailable )
{
"Testing Module $($module.Name)"
$initialSessionState = [initialsessionstate]::CreateDefault()
$initialSessionState.ImportPSModule($module.Name)
$runspace = [runspacefactory]::CreateRunspace($initialSessionState)
$runspace.Open()
$powershell = [powershell]::Create().AddScript("Get-Module $($module.Name)")
$powershell.Runspace = $runspace
if ( -not $powershell.Invoke() )
{
Write-Error 'Module not imported.'
}
else {
'success'
}
