copy-vmguestfile failing with 500 internal server error while using powercli 5.5 Release 2

Trying a simple copy-vmguestfile command and it is failing with 500 internal server error. Anyone have a suggestion on what could be causing this error? I updated the vmtools on the windows vm but that also does not seem to help. The error and versions I am using are below.

Thanks,

Eric

 

d:>copy-vmguestfile -source ./file.txt -destination C:\ -localtoguest -vm windowsvm1 -guestuser xxxx -guestpassword "xxxxxxxx"
