sorry can't tell from this. you need to show the kitchen.yml file run kitchen with -l debug and then look at the logs.

@neillturner Thanks I have uploaded kitchen.yml -

When I removed the roles_path it moved to install ansible but now upload failing - I am running Ubuntu Linux from Windows 10

My purpose is to test the roles/modules that I create.

@neillturner - I have resolved the issue. It seems the scp upload is just unstable. It sometimes fails. Also I needed to install pywinrm. Do you happen to know how to make it automated e.g. adding another shell provisioner before running ansible-playbook - i do not seem to find any reference regarding this.

[neillturner]

look at the custom_pre_play_command and custom_post_install_command parameters where you can add each script to do each stuff -)

To improve perform of uploads see https://rubygems.org/gems/kitchen-sync ormy https://rubygems.org/gems/kitchen-ssh. which support ssh_gzip format
