Has anyone run accross the this,  
When I use the following the code any script beyond the new-webAppPool does not get executed.  
I can run it when I test it as a standalone function but, no go with in the dsc resource.

Set-Target Resource  
{  
Param(  
[system.string]$name  
[system.string]$RuntimeVersion  
)

…other code

```
write-verbose('Create New WeAppPool $name")
new-WebAppPool -name $name

write-verbose('Set RuntimeVersion)
Set-ItemProperty -Path IIS:\\AppPools\$name ManageRunTimeVersion $RunTimeVersion

```

…other set-itemproperty (I’ve also tried : & $env:windir\system32\inetsrv\appcmd.exe)

}

So, my first suspect is usually permissions, since the LCM runs as SYSTEM. Have you looked at that?
