Question:
I would like to see if I could get some help on an error code. My final script will be to set an SMTP address for a mailbox, but I just used this code below as an example.
|
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 |
Set-Mailbox jsmith -AntispamBypassEnabled $false if ($LastExitCode -eq 1) { echo "Exit Code 1" $lastexitcode } else { echo "Exit Code 0" $lastexitcode } |
My expectation is that the first time I run the command, it does the work and I get successful error code. The second time I run the command, powershell comes back with the following.
|
1 2 |
Warning: The command completed successfully but no settings have been modified. |
I want to be able to get an error code for 3 situations. (It worked, It failed, and then the one above that it worked, but that no changes were made.) I just can’t seem to find any examples of this and would really appreciate some suggestions.
Thanks.
Michael
Ok, I got a great response and now I am using the following code. I have to modify thousands of objects and they will all be at different error codes, so I need to be able to write any of the conditions to a log file. I have a bunch of environment variables throughout the script, so in the end, I am going to put a “User Passed/Failed” $EmailAddress $DisplayName etc…..

Try { Set-Mailbox jsmith -AntispamBypassEnabled $false -ErrorAction Stop - WarningVariable Warn } Catch { Exit 2 } Write-Host "Exit Code 2" if ($Warn) { Exit 1 } Write-Host "Exit Code 1" else { Exit 0 } Write-Host "Exit Code 0" |
Answer:
Try this. It should exit with 0 if successful, 1 if successful but no changes, and 2 if it failed:

Try { Set-Mailbox jsmith -AntispamBypassEnabled $false -ErrorAction Stop -WarningVariable Warn } Catch { Exit 2 } if ($Warn) { Exit 1 } else { Exit 0 } |
