I’ve been trying for days to figure out how to get an Azure file share mapped to the VM being built by packer. Everything I’ve found points to using New-PSDrive, but that has continued to fail.
This is, among many other things, what I’ve recently tried:
provisioner "powershell" {
inline = [
"cmd.exe /C \"cmdkey /add:`\"<storage_account>.file.core.windows.net`\" /user:`\"localhost\\<storage_account>`\" /pass:`\"<access_key>`\"\"",
"New-PSDrive -Name F -PSProvider FileSystem -Root \\\\<storage_account>.file.core.windows.net\\fileshare -Persist -Scope Global"
]
}
No matter what I’ve attempted, I get
CMDKEY: Credentials cannot be saved from this logon session.
and
New-PSDrive : The network resource type is not correct
These commands work when I execute them locally in either Powershell 5.x or Powershell Core 7.x.
I’ve also tried defining credentials to pass to the New-PSDrive cmdlet. That also hasn’t worked.
