Hello,

I have a problem about enabling Ansible on Foreman machine. The error that I get is:

There were errors detected during install.
Please address the errors and re-run the installer to ensure the system is properly configured.
Failing to do so is likely to result in broken functionality.

Ansible version: 2.9
OS version: RedHat 8.6
Foreman version: 3.3.0

Could you please help me?

Many thanks!
Bruno

Hi!

Can you show us the contents of /var/log/foreman/production.log at 06:53, when the installer was running?

Interesting, can you re-run the installer with the --enable-foreman-proxy-plugin-remote-execution-script flag?
