provision instance on AZURE

[yaniv refael]

Hi,

I tried to provision instance on azure (ansible-playbook -i /usr/share/pyshared/ansible/modules/core/cloud/azure/azure.py azure.yml) and I got the flowing error:

ERROR! The file /usr/share/pyshared/ansible/modules/core/cloud/azure/azure.py is marked as executable, but failed to execute correctly. If this is not supposed to be an executable script, correct this with `chmod -x /usr/share/pyshared/ansible/modules/core/cloud/azure/azure.py`.

ERROR! Inventory script (/usr/share/pyshared/ansible/modules/core/cloud/azure/azure.py) had an execution error: Traceback (most recent call last):

Not sure what your specific problem is but there is a bunch of work being done on the Azure side of things at the moment with new modules being worked on at the moment.

Have a look at these Pull Requests on github - perhaps you can help out with testing?

https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/15358

Hope this helps,
