1. 1. 1. Summary

I see errors, when using ansible.windows.win_command / win_shell with the ssm connection plugin.

It seems, as if the win_command is executed in end endless loop while win_shell runs at least twice (I use it to execute a ps1 script)

The shellscript I run with win_shell or win_command extracts a zip file placed in the same directory as the ps1 script, works on the data and deletes it afterwards.

I get the error message, the there is no zip file next to the ps1 script (error is written by the script)

but looking on the instance while the win_shell / win_command is executed, I can see that the zipfile is executed and there are successfull runs (but even others). The win_shell / win_command never finishes.

I don't get the error when using winrm connection

Maybe it has something to do with the

export OBJC_DISABLE_INITIALIZE_FORK_SAFETY=YES

I have to do in order to make the ssm plugin running?
