Unable to run azure resource group creation playbook

Archives Ansible Project

Hi,

I tried running the azure resource group creation playbook by following these steps given in the MS site:https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/developer/ansible/install-on-linux-vm?tabs=ansible#file-credentials

but it is throwing this error

An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named ‘urllib3.packages.six’
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {“changed”: false, “msg”: “Failed to import the required Python library (msrestazure) on ansible-controller’s Python /usr/bin/python3.6. Please read module documentation and install in the appropriate location. If the required library is installed, but Ansible is using the wrong Python interpreter, please consult the documentation on ansible_python_interpreter”}

This issue is logged here:

Hi

the errors indicate some basic problem with the ansible installation.

Either the instructions on the MS site are incorrect/incomplete/out of date, or you didn’t follow them completely/accurately.

Contact the author(s) of those instructions for questions about them.

Do you have correct instructions for working on ansible for azure workloads?

The ansible docs at
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/scenario_guides/guide_azure.html

Sir,

I have used the exact same step and these steps are given in the Microsoft site as well which I followed but it shows the Python erro and now it shows the error for different module

An exception occurred during task execution. To see the full traceback, use -vvv. The error was: ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'packaging
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {“changed”: false, “msg”: “Failed to import the required Python library (packaging) on ansible-controller’s Python /usr/bin/python3.6. Please read module documentation and install in the appropriate location. If the required library is installed, but Ansible is using the wrong Python interpreter, please consult the documentation on ansible_python_interpreter”}

Any Clue!!

If you installed ansible with pip, you can use the file (from the base
of your virtual environment)
./lib/python3.8/site-packages/ansible_collections/community/azure/tests/sanity/requirements.txt
as input for 'pip install -r <path_to_requirements.txt>. From my
install, it contains the following, which worked for me getting the
correct module dependencies. Previous to finding this trick, I
continually had fits trying to get azurerm modules to work, but now it
works fine:
