Yes, it's pretty easy to see: > HTTPSConnectionPool(host='login.microsoftonline.com', port=443): Max retries > exceeded with url: /41bb3422-2e0e-42e8-88d2-------/oauth2/token (Caused > by NewConnectionError('\ -----f199c8a------\>: Failed to establish a new connection: [Errno -2] Name or > service not known')) The system that executes this code cannot resolve the hostname "login.microsoftonline.com". So you should look into that. Just to be clear, this error is not ansible related, it's merely ansible that reports it. Dick ---
