Hi

We are experiencing this problem in awx "ERROR! couldn’t resolve module/action ‘vmware\_content\_deploy\_ovf\_template’ This often indicates a misspelling, missing collection, or incorrect module path. "  
We are keeping the “vmware collection in the repo” for offline use. Is anyone familiar with this issue,  
and if so, does anyone know how to resolve it?

Hi!

“vmware collection in the repo”

how are you adding the collection to the repo?

are specifying the vmware collection in the “collections/requirements.yaml” file in your repo?
