11/09/2023, 3:11 PMHi @lemon-ambulance-1111!
Is this being deployed into an EC2 instance? What type of instance are you referring to?

Ec2
Whatever I am trying to run with ansible it's not working

11/09/2023, 3:13 PMOkay let me try to take a look into why this might be happening.

11/09/2023, 4:04 PM@lemon-ambulance-1111 Can you share the playbook you're trying to run? My initial thought is that you're going to need to generate and use an Ansible inventory file so that Ansible has the necessary information to connect to the EC2 instance you're provisioning via Pulumi.
Oh, and can you share the specific Pulumi code you're using?

11/13/2023, 6:51 AMDue to some security reasons I am not able to share the code but I will send you, how I invoke ansible inside pulumi

11/13/2023, 2:50 PMThat looks like an SSH error. Are you able to manually open an SSH connection to the instance provisioned by Pulumi?

11/13/2023, 3:33 PMSince I am using iscloud, which is a different provider, I don't have a private key like aws
This is how I invoke ansible inside pulumi
play_ansible = command.local.Command("playansible",
create=vm.hostname.apply(lambda hostname: f"""\
ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING=False ISC ansible-playbook \
-u hostname \
-i '{hostname}', \
playbook.yaml"""))

11/13/2023, 5:48 PMOK, but Ansible uses SSH, and so you’ll need to ensure you can open an SSH connection in some fashion that Ansible supports. Whether that’s using private key authentication or username and password doesn’t matter.

11/17/2023, 2:29 PMBut it's getting stuck at some point and not running the playbook
