Hi ! I’m currently trying to create a EE for AWX and I’m experiencing some issues. i’ve download awx-ee environement for base ([https://github.com/ansible/awx-ee](https://github.com/ansible/awx-ee)) And I’vejust added in **requirements.txt** the **netaddr** module I need. ---------------------------------requirement.txt------------------------------------- git+https://github.com/ansible/ansible-builder.git@devel#egg=ansible-builder ipaddr netaddr ---

Sorry for double post but i’ve checked if netaddr is installed with pip list command obviously. ---

Hey there, since you’re doing a manual build using docker my first guess is that it could be a versioning issue to me. What versions of python, netaddr, and ipaddr you have? Cheers, Beccah ---

Hi, first, thanks for you’r reply. I found that in my **execution-environment.yml** file, I forgot to set as dependecy my **requirement.txt** file… So i added this line : ----------------------------------------- **execution-environment.yml** ------------------------------------------------ ---

Here is an example building from a base Ubuntu image. [https://github.com/acelinkit/ansibletools/blob/main/Dockerfile](https://github.com/acelinkit/ansibletools/blob/main/Dockerfile) ---

Hi guys ! First thanks to you two for answering me. I’ve changed my building method by using **ansible-builder**. Then I push to [quay.io](http://quay.io) with podman push and it works ! Here the steps I followed : 1. Clone git repository of awx-ee locally. 2. Changed requirements (.txt, ;yml and bindep for packages) 3. Comment out **EE\_BASE\_IMAGE: ‘[quay.io/ansible/ansible-runner:latest](http://quay.io/ansible/ansible-runner:latest)’** in **execution-environment.yml** file because ansible-runner refuse it. (why ? I don’t know…) 4. Launch build with **ansible-builder build -t [quay.io/a\_pizzetta/hoplacloud-awx-ee2](http://quay.io/a_pizzetta/hoplacloud-awx-ee2) --build-arg EE\_BASE\_IMAGE=[quay.io/ansible/ansible-runner:latest](http://quay.io/ansible/ansible-runner:latest) -v3** 5. Push to [quay.io](http://quay.io) with **podman push [quay.io/a\_pizzetta/hoplacloud-awx-ee2](http://quay.io/a_pizzetta/hoplacloud-awx-ee2)** 6. Add Execution Environment in my AWX interface with link **[quay.io/a\_pizzetta/hoplacloud-awx-ee2:latest](http://quay.io/a_pizzetta/hoplacloud-awx-ee2:latest)** And it now works perfectly ! Best regards ! Arnaud PIZZETTA ---
