Hello, I'm trying to automate the installation of Visual Studio, and I am using the unattended installation command provided by Microsoft:
vs_community.exe --installPath C:\minVS --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.CoreEditor --quiet --norestart Running this command from the target machine directly works fine and VS is installed but when using the Ansible win_shell command which should be equivalent it doesn't work and the installation just hangs.Task manager displays that the process is running in the background but it doesn't install below is what my playbook looks like. --- - hosts: win tasks: - name: Install VS win_shell: C:\Users\vagrant\Desktop\vs_community.exe --installPath C:\Users\vagrant\Desktop\VS --add Microsoft.VisualStudio.Workload.CoreEditor --quiet --norestart register: result - debug: var: result Can anyone tell me why Ansible's win_shell module doesn't run the command like when run on the target machine directly. Thanks in advance. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
