Ansible AWX and TEXTFSM

[Richard Lucht]

Hello,

I have been having some great success with TextFSM and Python.  I am now trying to use it in Ansible.

I have installed the ntc-templates onto my server running ansible awx and when I run this demo script I get this error:

    "msg": "parse_cli_textfsm filter requires TextFSM library to be installed",

    "_ansible_no_log": false

I have verified that the templates folder does exist in this location
