Hi, I am trying to write a playbook to download a msi file from the internet to my local disk and then use “win\_msi” to install the msi application to my Windows client.

Bu when ever I run my playbook, I get an error,

failed: [host2] =\> {“failed”:true}  
msg: Error downloading [logserver.com/test.msi](http://logserver.com/test.msi) to C:\test.msi

FATAL: all hosts have already failed – aborting

I also read in one of the blogs that win\_get\_url works only for urls that start with “http://…” . Is that why my playbook fails?

Can you show us your playbook? - it does sound like a syntax error. You definitely need to specify an http url with win\_get\_url.
