Hi experts

I ve been trying get_url in Aix server but no luck yet…

In Linux the below ansible code is working

get_url:
dest: /tmp
url: https://
username: <>
password: <>

But in AIX machine it is giving below error.

… Request failed:

Any pointer or advice pls…

Are you able to use curl on that remote host with the same URL and credentials?

Thanks but both curl and wget command not found…

Too bad, that would have helped to indicate SSL issues on that remote host.
Try running with more verbosity (-vvv) and see what that returns.

Thanks dick

Yes by default those commands doesn’t comes oob.

Tried with verbosity mode.

Request failed:<urlopen error A failure in the SSL library occurred (ssl.c:1125)>”

It is possible that the SSL setup on the target is too old. You could check that
with the "testssl" script from the controller (https://testssl.sh/).

Thank you I see. I ll check the script. Can we call the execute the get_url without ssl certificate ?

This is ansible verbose report. Seems the SSL is too old.

Yes you are right.
The ssl certificate was pretty old and I ve no idea how to update it also.

So I skipped Ssl verification and it worked

get_url:
dest: /tmp
url: https://
username: <>
password: <>

validate_certs: no

Thank you again both of you.
