Exception when calling `Get-SecretStoreConfiguration` and `Set-Secret`

[AjayKMehta]

I installed both SecretStore and SecretManagement modules and tried to follow the examples in the blog post announcing the release. However, I get the exceptions shown below:

I have not seen this error. I suspect there may be some conflict between previous versions. Make sure you uninstall any previous versions of SecretStore and SecretManagement. Also try unregistering any extension vaults and re-register. Be sure and try with a new instance of PowerShell shell.

If you continue seeing this, examine the error record exception and innerexception that includes stack information.

$err = Get-Error
$err.Exception
$err.Exception.StackTrace
$err.Exception.InnerException
$err.Exception.InnerException.StackStrace

Otherwise, I would need a repro.

Or just run Get-Error and it will dump all error information. Another thing you can try is to reset the SecretStore. If you used an older version there may be a conflict (although I haven't seen any). But beware as it erases all of your existing secrets.

Reset-SecretStore

Thanks, @PaulHigin. I initially had installed a preview version which I deleted.

Reset-SecretStore resolved the issue.
