使用Powershell DSC拉取服务器部署资源

Question

I am trying to deploy Powershell modules from my https pull server but couldn't. I don't know what I'm missing here. These are things which I already did or tried:

1. Setup a https based pull server using instructions outlined at https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/dsc/pullserver
2. Register a pull client using instructions mentioned here https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/dsc/pullclientconfignames
3. On my pull server I've placed modules under C:\\Program Files\\WindowsPowerShell\\DscService\\Modules as xWebAdministration_1.12.0.0.zip and xWebAdministration_1.12.0.0.zip.checksum

If I double click xWebAdministration_1.12.0.0.zip file it contains: DSCResources, Examples, Tests, HighQualityResourceKitPlan.md, README.md and xWebAdministration.psd1 at root level, Under DSCResources I have all MSFT_* folders and other stuff

4. When I run a custom configuration on my client node which requires xWebAdministration module, I get module not found exception.

I looked at client's event viewer for errors but don't see anything related.

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Have you tried Publish-DSCModuleAndMof from xPSDesiredStateConfiguration?

You have to run Install-Module xPSDesiredStateConfiguration first.

You can find an example of using this here .
