My task part of playbook.

- name: unzip maven 
  win_unzip: 
     src: C:\tools\maven.zip 
    dest: C:\tools\maven 
    recurse: yes 
    delete_archive: yes

output:

TASK [unzip maven] ******************************************************************************************* [WARNING]: ansible_winrm_cert_validation unsupported by pywinrm (is an up-to-date version of pywinrm installed?) [WARNING]: ansible_winrm_cert_validation unsupported by pywinrm (is an up-to-date version of pywinrm installed?) fatal: [build-machine3]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "dest": "C:\\tools\\maven", "msg": "PowerShellCommunityExtensions PowerShell Module (PSCX) is required for non-'.zip' compressed archive types.", "removed": false, "src": "C:\\tools\\maven.zip"} fatal: [build-machine2]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "dest": "C:\\tools\\maven", "msg": "PowerShellCommunityExtensions PowerShell Module (PSCX) is required for non-'.zip' compressed archive types.", "removed": false, "src": "C:\\tools\\maven.zip"}

So added the PSCX part before it.

- name: Install PSCX 
  win_psmodule: 
     name: Pscx 
     state: present

But, got below error now related to Pscx.

Please suggest.

Try to update the below one in your inventory file and try to execute

ansible_winrm_server_cert_validation=ignore


or


Update the pywinrm and check again.
