have a problem when trying to get the hosts of a nutanix cluster through a script. I’m taking the following error:

ansible-inventory -i hosts --list

[WARNING]: * Failed to parse /root/teste-nutanix/hosts with yaml plugin: Syntax Error while loading YAML. mapping values are not allowed in this context The error
appears to be in ‘/root/teste-nutanix/hosts’: line 11, column 4, but may be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem. The offending line appears to
be: try: ^ here
[WARNING]: * Failed to parse /root/teste-nutanix/hosts with script plugin: failed to parse executable inventory script results from /root/teste-nutanix/hosts: Syntax
Error while loading YAML. found unexpected ‘:’ The error appears to be in ‘’: line 1, column 36580, but may be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact

[WARNING]: Unable to parse /root/teste-nutanix/hosts as an inventory source
ERROR! No inventory was parsed, please check your configuration and options.

This error occurs only on a single nutanix cluster. In two others I can get the data successfully.

Link Script File: (https://github.com/mattkeeler/ansible-nutanix-inventory)

NOTE: I renamed the nutanix.py file for hosts and gave it permission to run on it.

When I run the script manually:

python3 hosts --list

I can get the results normally, but when I run the script via awx the error occurs.

So I’m testing with the ansible-inventory command

I managed to solve the problem.

The script generates an error JSON result.

By editing the script so that the --pretty option is the default, the problem has been solved.
