I am running my ansible on an AWS EC2 linux machine which connects to another AWS EC2 Windows machine to copy a file to S3 bucket
my tasks/main.yml file looks like below
---
# tasks file for postgres
- name: Simple PUT operation
amazon.aws.aws_s3:
bucket: codepipeline-artefact-12344555-abc
object: /test.txt
src: "C:\\teststore-selenium\\test.txt"
mode: put
ansible.cfg file looks like below
[defaults]
log_path = /var/log/ansible.log
ansible_python_interpreter = /usr/bin/python
and hosts file looks like below
[win]
10.x.x.5:5986
[win:vars]
ansible_user=Administrator
ansible_port=5986
ansible_password=****PasswordRemoved****

#ansible_winrm_read_timeout_sec=60
#ansible_winrm_operation_timeout_sec=60
ansible_shell_type=powershell

I am getting error when running the playbook. Error below
