I want to exécute in a windows 7 machine to allow connexion with Ansible. In some Machines I have this error when executing ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 (as admin) : PS C:\Users\adminsifast\Documents\Ansible\> .\ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 WinRM has been updated to receive requests. The type of the WinRM service was successfully modified. **or** **(WinRM is already configured to receive this request)** C:\Users\adminsifast\Documents\Ansible\ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 : Could not establish session on either HTTP or HTTPS. Breaking Au caractère Ligne:1 : 1 - .\ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 - ```auto ``` - CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (🙂 [Write-Error], WriteErrorException - FullyQualifiedErrorId : Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.WriteErrorException,ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 I searched this error but I have not find a solution to it. for some pc when I execute ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 I have no problem but on the other the proplem persists. if you have an idea thank you to orient me, I really need a solution to communicate with Ansible. thank you ---

That error is coming from the attempt to connect back to localhost. 'd made changes to some of the error handling recently; previously the script would write an error message but continue to run. Try commenting out line 135 ( [https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/examples/scripts/ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1#L135](https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/devel/examples/scripts/ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1#L135)) to let the script continue past the error: Throw "Unable to establish an HTTP or HTTPS remoting session." Please let me know if that change works for you. ---

I found the cause of the error, trying to run this command “enable-psremoting” : ` PS C:\Users\Administrateur\> enable-psremoting Configuration rapide du service WinRM (Gestion à distance de Windows) La commande « Set-WSManQuickConfig » s’exécute pour activer l’administration à distance de cet ordinateur via le service Gestion à distance de Windows.

Hi Chris, I am getting similar error while running {ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1} on some machines. I tried to look for L135 in the script but that is already a comment. can you please mention the exact line (code) that needs to be commented out? { # Create the hashtables of settings to be used. $valueset = @{} $valueset.Add(‘Hostname’, $SubjectName) $valueset.Add(‘CertificateThumbprint’, $thumbprint)} Regards, Fahd ---

The script has changed a bit since Chris’s message (over a year ago). Can you confirm you have upgraded to powershell 3 or 4 on the machines before running ConfigureRemotingForAnsible.ps1 It would help if you provide the exact error message. Hope this helps, Jon ---

Hi, I have this issues when I type this command in terminal; ansible -m ping all 192.168.1.2 | UNREACHABLE! =\> {      "changed": false,      "msg": "ssl: HTTPSConnectionPool(host='192.168.1.2', port=5986): Max retries exceeded with url: /wsman(Caused by ConnectTimeoutError(\, 'Connection to 192.168.1.2 timed out.
