Version of FB: 7.0.0.2056

&nbsp;I recently changed my deployment server from Windows 2003 server to Windows 2008 R2 Standard (64 bit) with SP1. There are a few problems I am having now:

1. When specifying a filename (as a ps1 script) I was passing 2 parameters under Options, Script Parameters: -param1name -param2name . This ran fine on the Windows 2003 box, but failed on Windows 2008- but only from FinalBuilder. If I created a batch file calling the PS script- I was able to use the same syntax. I was able to work around this problem- I just needed to eliminate the -paramname arguments and ONLY list the actual parameter values. Just curious as to why this is.

2. I want to be able to manage Failoverclusters from my FB project. However when I run get-module -list from the Powershell action in FinalBuilder- it does not list Failoverclusters as one of the&nbsp;available&nbsp;modules. When I run that same command from a Powershell shortcut on my desktop- the Failoverclusters module shows up. I checked to make sure that both my shortcut AND the Finalbuilder Powershell option were pointing to the same path. They are. This is really confusing to me.

Just a quick update- when I run $host.version from both FB and the desktop- I get the same version : 2.0.1.1

Try using the 64 bit version of powershell. By default FinalBuilder calls the 32 bit version.
