Perhaps the script has changed but I ran it 8 months ago off the ansibledoc site.

Has anyone else run into this?

Anyone know how to fix it?

If you have run before on the same box you might need use the -ForceNewSSLCert option perhaps? (just a guess, not something I’ve seen myself. If that’s not it, can you send the exact message you get?

I faced similar issues once, all our playbook are developed in 2.4 and then when we upgraded our server to 2.5 few roles failed. I assume it would be the same with your case.

Have you tried remove the self-signed certified that is generated from configureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 and try running it again?
