I have not personally used the win_chocolatey module but here are some of the things I would try
1) Enable verbose logging with -vvvvv when running with ansible-playbook 2) Try adding one or more of the following to the win_chocolatey module like this win_chocolatey: name: GoogleChrome-AllUsers source: C:\updater\GoogleChrome-AllUsers.26.0.1410.64.nupkg become: yes become_user: Administrator become_method: runas I suspect when you run on the command line, you have adminstrator previlege. But the user ansible uses does not. You can try to use the win_command module to see if you can get it to work to rule out permission issue but I suspect you will run into similar issue.
