Hi,

Getting this error:

ansible-playbook -i inventory.azur demo.yml

I installed azure as required even with:

pip install azure --upgrade

and got 2.0.0 not even the RC. So on this side seems ok. Tested on 2 different servers.

My azure inventory subscription ID is ok and works fine with terraform.

My playbook mimic the doc found here:


https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/azure_rm_resourcegroup_module.html

---

- hosts: localhost

connection: local

tasks:

- name: create ressource group

azure_rm_resourcegroup:

name: testing

location: westus

So any tips ? I knowledge this is not a core module.

Thanks

Hi,

Seems something is wrong with python/ansible... For Azure you need python 2.7 as written in documentation
What distribution did you use ? How did you install python ? How did you install pip ?

Hi,

Python 2.7 on centos. 

Installed Ansible from epel & have 2.3.0 and installed azur using pip install azur --upgrade. The stack looks ok but this is messy over azurRM modules.

Ansible AzurRM module will only work with 2.0.0RC5 otherwise it will blow out. Seem there is a back check that don't detect well that 2.0.0 is the release and it should work.

Which version of CentOS ?
How did you install python 2.7 ?

How did you install pip ?

Hi,

Used: centos 7.3

Python 2.7 ( latest package) 

yum install ansible -y 

from epel repo.

Pip default version from Repo. I think 8.2 ( destroyed the VM).

But as you see.my previous reply azure_rm modules are tied with python package azure 2.0.0rc5 & wont work with 2.0.0rc6 or 2.0.0 I think there is a hard coded limit check in the module.
