*Hello Avinash,* *Thanks for your response. And sorry for this duplicate post. (I missed the response from other community members) The original post is here: * https://groups.google.com/d/msg/ansible-project/LGtMnY3b32E/XN5bRkBwCQAJ *The script module never worked for me. * fatal: [10.0.0.96]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Could not find or access 'C:UsersAdministratorDocumentsservice.ps1'\nSearched in:\n\t/home/ec2-user/site-warmup/gs-int/files/C:UsersAdministratorDocumentsservice.ps1\n\t/home/ec2-user/site-warmup/gs-int/C:UsersAdministratorDocumentsservice.ps1\n\t/home/ec2-user/site-warmup/gs-int/files/C:UsersAdministratorDocumentsservice.ps1\n\t/home/ec2-user/site-warmup/gs-int/C:UsersAdministratorDocumentsservice.ps1 on the Ansible Controller.\nIf you are using a module and expect the file to exist on the remote, see the remote_src option"} I tried to copy the script using the win_copy module and set the remote_src to true. It kept failing with the weird message. I didn't spend much time on it as I thought of using win_shell instead. Can we discuss this on the original post please?
