Having issues with step 4

[Dubltaps]

Can't figure out what to do at step 4. I have downloaded the zip and go into there to change it but not sure what to do after. Any help is greatly appreciated!

pi@raspberrypi:~/internet-pi $ ansible-playbook main.yml [DEPRECATION WARNING]: Ansible will require Python 3.8 or newer on the controller starting with Ansible 2.12. Current version: 3.7.3 (default, Jul 25 2020, 13:03:44) [GCC 8.3.0]. This feature will be removed from ansible-core in version 2.12. Deprecation warnings can be disabled by setting deprecation_warnings=False in ansible.cfg. [WARNING]: Unable to parse /home/pi/internet-pi/inventory.ini as an inventory source [WARNING]: No inventory was parsed, only implicit localhost is available [WARNING]: provided hosts list is empty, only localhost is available. Note that the implicit localhost does not match 'all' [WARNING]: Could not match supplied host pattern, ignoring: internet_pi

This is what i get for step 5

Are you running the Internet-Pi project on a Pi/host directly? Or are you connected via SSH to the host when you attempted to run the playbook?

As noted in the second [WARNING] block of text, it looks like your inventory.ini file may be empty(?), thus the playbook will not run.

I’ve tried it both ways, not 100% sure what I’m doing wrong, also I’m fairly new at this. Thanks for the response!

Let's do this:

Run "cat inventory.ini" in the terminal, then copy/paste that entire block of text into this thread and we'll see what happened.
