Hello Gents,

I’m trying to setup n inventory using a RH Satellite 6 source.

Added the credentials and the inventory source, however once I try to sync it it fails with this output:

2.579 INFO Updating inventory 2: NONP Foreman Hosts 2.616 DEBUG Using system install of ansible-inventory CLI: /usr/local/bin/ansible-inventory 2.616 INFO Reading Ansible inventory source: /var/lib/awx/venv/awx/lib/python2.7/site-packages/awx/plugins/inventory/foreman.py 2.642 DEBUG Using private credential data in ‘/tmp/awx\_4771\_YQMgBV’. 2.647 DEBUG Using fresh temporary directory ‘/tmp/awx\_proot\_Mxn5Ja’ for isolation. 2.647 DEBUG Running from `/var/lib/awx/venv/awx/lib/python2.7/site-packages/awx/plugins/inventory` working directory.

The weird part is that that it’s working fine on a community AWX installation, but it’s not working with this Tower installation I have.

Anyone experienced this before?

All field are correctly filled in so I have no idea what arguments are missing…

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers,  
Jason
