Ran into this error when trying to start my Virtual Box VM: VT-x is not available (VERR_VMX_NO_VMX).
Turns out, enabling Hyper-V on a Windows 10 install messes with Virtual Box (or something). Seeing how there is no real need to run Hyper-V and Virtual Box, I simply disabled Hyper-V (reboot required), and the error went away.
Guess Microsoft and Oracle still can’t get along.
Get every object and property:
Get-ADUser -Filter * -Properties *| select * | Export-CSV "C:\PS_Every_Object.csv"
^ Depending on the number of user this could take a few minutes to run. This is also handy to hunt for properties.
This will export userId, email, employee Id, and company name.
Get-ADUser -Filter * -Properties SamAccountName,EmailAddress,EmployeeID,Company | select SamAccountName,EmailAddress,EmployeeID,Company | Export-CSV "C:\Email_Addresses.csv"
Trying to start a SharePoint workflow using PowerShell and I couldn’t get past this error:
Exception calling “StartWorkflow” with “4” argument(s): “Object reference not set to an instance of an object.”
or
Exception calling “StartWorkflow” with “3” argument(s): “Object reference not set to an instance of an object.”
NO clue if there is a bug in my farm, but the script below works. Ended up having to re-get the item when running the workflow. $manager.StartWorkflow($list.GetItemById($item.ID),$assoc,$data,$true)
$web = Get-SPWeb "http://rootSiteCollection.com"
$list = $web.Lists["Shared Documents"]
$assoc = $list.WorkFlowAssociations |Where { $_.Name -eq "tacoWF"}
$data = $assoc.AssociationData
$manager = $web.Site.WorkflowManager
$sQuery = New-Object Microsoft.SharePoint.SPQuery
#Get all items with an ID greater than 5
$caml = '<Where><Gt><FieldRef Name="ID" /><Value Type="Counter">5</Value></Gt></Where>'
$sQuery.Query = $caml
$fItems = $list.GetItems($sQuery)
Foreach($item in $fItems)
{
$manager.StartWorkflow($list.GetItemById($item.ID),$assoc,$data,$true)
}
Update.
Ran into this again on a SharePoint 2016 farm.
The following commands fixed the problem:
$webapp = Get-SPWebApplication -identity http://
$webapp.UpdateWorkflowConfigurationSettings()
