I am trying to install ArcGIS Enterprise 11.1 on a single node deployment, I am facing the below error, any insights would be great,

Module Version 4.1.0

Hi @CyientNam1,

Let's check the execution policy on the target and orchestrating node:

Get-ExecutionPolicy -List

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/powershell/module/microsoft.powershell.core/about/about_execution_policies?view=powershell-7.3

Error:

The file C:\Program
Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\ArcGIS\Modules\ArcGIS.Common\ArcGIS.Common.psm1 is not digitally signed. You cannot run this script on the current system.

Try running the following Powershell command to set the Execution Policy to remote signed:

Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned

Might also need to unblock the files within the Module:

Get-ChildItem -Path 'C:\Program Files\WindowsPowerShell\Modules\ArcGIS' | Unblock-File

Thanks, Cameron K.

Awesome for the quick reply, Unblocking the file has resolved the issue
