Hi, I’m trying to download Maven but I get the following error:

fatal: [app01]: FAILED! =\> {“changed”: false, “dest”: “/opt/apache-maven-3.1.0-bin.tar.gz”, “elapsed”: 10, “msg”: “Request failed: \<urlopen error [Errno -2] Name or service not known\>”, “url”: “[https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/apache-maven/3.1.0/apache-maven-3.1.0-bin.tar.gz](https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/apache-maven/3.1.0/apache-maven-3.1.0-bin.tar.gz)”}

My playbook task is like this:

- name: Donwload do maven  
get\_url:  
url: [https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/apache-maven/3.1.0/apache-maven-3.1.0-bin.tar.gz](https://repo.maven.apache.org/maven2/org/apache/maven/apache-maven/3.1.0/apache-maven-3.1.0-bin.tar.gz)  
dest: /opt/apache-maven-3.1.0-bin.tar.gz

If I ctrl click on the link works

It’s clearly a problem with name resolution on destination host. Is not a problem related to ansible.
