windows: the verify command returned nothing and said so nowhere - #73
Merged
Conversation
The manifest read-back added yesterday uses `Get-Content | ConvertFrom-Json` without -Raw. On Windows PowerShell 5.1, which is what ships with Windows and what the producer box runs, Get-Content emits an array of lines and 5.1's ConvertFrom-Json does not reassemble them the way PowerShell 7 does. The properties come back empty, so the command prints its column headers, prints no values, and raises no error. Measured on the producer box on 2026-08-05 against a panel that had published correctly (49 markets, report week 2026-07-28, the §E4 pins to the market), so the only thing broken was the check. That failure mode is worse than a missing command. A blank result reads as "checked it" rather than as a failure to look, which is the same class of problem as the short panel two sections further down: well-formed output that nothing downstream would question. Rewritten to assign once with -Raw and read the three fields off the object, and the reason -Raw is load-bearing is stated inline so nobody tidies it away.
