Using Packer 1.3.0 to create kvm Windows Server 2016/2012R2 VM's using
ansible 2.6.3
I get "random" errors during execution. I can run the same packer run
several time(s) and will get error(s) at different places each time. An
example is below:
A partial log output is below:

Previously i was running this with Packer 1.2.X and ansibe 2.5.2 and it ran
reliably without issue. Is anyone aware of any issues/bugs
with recent packer/ansible versions that might cause this?
