But you can also create Trap functions where look pretty interesting.

How do I get it working even after an exception occurs it should loop in foreach. I also used a while($true) loop but that went into infinite loop. How to go about it? $ErrorActionPreference = "Stop"; try { # Loop through each of the users in the site foreach($user in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/16229582/continue-execution-on-exception $users) { # Create an array that will be used to split the user name from the domain/membership provider $a=@() $displayname = $user.DisplayName $userlogin = $user.UserLogin # Separate the user name from the domain/membership provider if($userlogin.Contains('\')) { $a = $userlogin.split("\") $username = $a[1] } elseif($userlogin.Contains(':')) { $a = $userlogin.split(":") $username = $a[1] } # Create the new username based on the given input $newalias = $newprovider + "\" + $username if (-not $convert) { $answer = Read-Host "Your first user will be changed from $userlogin to $newalias. Would you like to continue processing all users? [Y]es, [N]o" switch ($answer) { "Y" {$convert = $true} "y" {$convert = $true} default {exit} } } if(($userlogin -like "$oldprovider*") -and $convert) { LogWrite ("Migrating User old : " + $user + " New user : " + $newalias + " ") move-spuser -identity $user -newalias $newalias -ignoresid -Confirm:$false LogWrite ("Done") } } } catch { LogWrite ("Caught the exception") LogWrite ($Error[0].Exception) } Kindly help. powershell error-handling continue share|improve this question edited Apr 26 '13 at 8:24 Ansgar Wiechers 87.1k1165104 asked Apr 26 '13 at 5:51 Ishan 1,7542466115 Why not change $ErrorActionPreference = "Continue" ?

functions. The next area where Powershell suprises new users is in its approach to error handling. Fortunately, there are some useful workarounds http://patrick.lioi.net/2011/08/16/avoiding-on-error-resume-next-when-using-powershell/ for making the surprising default behavior work more like you would expect. While learning Powershell, I was trying to create a deployment script. The script needed to perform several tasks including, copying the deployment package to the target machine, setting up services, and the like. While testing it out locally, I would deliberately cause certain steps to fail in order on error to ensure that the user of the script would be clearly alerted to failures. To my surprise, when I caused exceptions to be thrown, the script would happily continue on to the next step, ultimately printing a success message to the user. Consider this example: What the heck just happened? If you can't rely on uncaught exceptions to stop powershell on error execution, how can you reliably deal with failures? What if we throw an exception and then blindly move along to a subsequent step that depends on the success of previous steps? Powershell reintroduces VB's "ON ERROR RESUME NEXT", but goes one step further by making it the default! Abandon all hope, ye who etc, etc. To make Powershell error handling work more like error handling in other .NET languages, we can set $global:ErrorActionPreference = "Stop" at the start of our script. With this variable set, uncaught exceptions thrown by Powershell code will cause the whole script to stop. Altering our example with this line, we get the output that we originally expected: This solves most of our problem: the behavior of Powershell code that throws errors. Unfortunately, it doesn't help us when we invoke an external executable that fails in the middle of our script. In my next post, I'll show you how to address the failure of external executables. @plioi :: archive :: fixie :: parsley :: rook © 2011-2013 Patrick Lioi
