However when we are trying to execute Get-ChildItem command we are gettting names of all databases.
Please help us.

Test-Connection reaches the server successfully. What might be the root cause of:

Must PowerShell Remoting be enabled? Is port 1433 involved?
Using PowerShell 5.1.14409.1018 on Windows 7 Professional.
SqlServer module 21.1.18068.
I try to get backup from SQL databases with this PowerShell code:
Set-Location "SQLSERVER:\SQL\computer\distance\Databases"
foreach ($database in (Get-ChildItem)) {
$dbName = $database.Name
Backup-SqlDatabase -Database $dbName -BackupFile "E:\bu\$dbName"
}
In a virtual server it works.
When I go to SQLSERVER:\SQL\computer\distance\Databases location and take ls
it show my databases and sucessfully takes backups.
But in another server in my workplace it gives this error:
Get-ChildItem : SQL Server PowerShell provider error: Failed to read child items.
[Failed to connect to server computer\instance. --> Login failed for user
'work\sql'.]
At line:1 char:23

and when in SQLSERVER:\SQL\computer\distance\Databases directory I do ls it gives this error:

computer\instance: I changed for this example.
I am trying to test the following script in powershell which gets the status of the mirrored databases.
#SQL Variables
$sqlservers = "APNSQL01"
#SQL database mirroring status
$body +=echo "------------Originating Server-----------"`r`n""`r`n""
Import-Module "sqlps" -DisableNameChecking
$body +=echo "--------Status of mirrored databases---------"`r`n""`r`n""
foreach ($server in $sqlservers){
$body +=echo "Database mirroring state on $server
"
$body += Invoke-Sqlcmd -Query "USE master
SELECT sys.database_mirroring.mirroring_state_desc
,sys.databases.name
FROM sys.database_mirroring INNER JOIN sys.databases ON sys.database_mirroring.database_id=sys.databases.database_id
WHERE mirroring_state_desc IS NOT NULL" -ServerInstance "$server" | out-string
}
When I run this code, I get the following error :
Invoke-Sqlcmd : A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server.
The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is
configured to allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to

My SQL server is a STANDARD database. It has no mirror. Is that the issue?
What might the error be?
I have a problem with running SQLPS commands to create a DB on Windows Server 2012R2 and Powershell v4
#Import SQL Server Module called SQLPS

$db = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Database($Srvr, $DBName)
$db.Create()
#Confirm, list databases in your current instance

Any suggestions how to fix this?
If you are working locally try replacing:
$Srvr = New-Object -TypeName Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server -ArgumentList $Inst
With:
$Srvr = new-object ('Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Server') localhost
