Ansible - Winrm or Requests Is Not Installed

winrm or requests is not installed: cannot import name certs with installed pywinrm

OK, something seems to be strange with python-urllib3. YUM tells me, it was not installed

OK why that error? I've looked intop /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages and saw, that a directory urllib3 was there. I've moved it to /tmp, after that I was able to install python-urllib3 package and everything works fine!

Java version check using ansible is getting skipped for no apparent reason

Note: below is an answer to your direct problem. Meanwhile if java was installed as a system package, I strongly suggest you have a look at the answer by @Jaay to get the version directly from package facts rather than using shell/command

This is what I get

"1.8.0_312"

As you can see, the quotes are part of the output. Hence if you debug java_installed.stdout you get (ran on my local machine with java 11):

TASK [debug] ********************************************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {
    "java_installed.stdout": "\"11.0.15\""
}

A simple workaround is to read the incoming value as json. The following does the job (once again customized for my local machine to test and using the version test as good practice)

---
- hosts: localhost
  gather_facts: false

  tasks:
    - name: "[install] Check for Java install"
      shell: "java -version 2>&1 | grep version | awk '{print $3}'"
      changed_when: false
      failed_when: false
      register: java_installed

    - name: show the raw and refactored captured var
      vars:
        my_msg:
          - "Raw value for version is: {{ java_installed.stdout }}"
          - "Refactored value for version is: {{ java_installed.stdout | from_json }}"
      debug:
        msg: "{{ my_msg }}"

    - when: java_installed.stdout | from_json is version("11.0.15", "==")
      debug:
        msg: "Java 11 is installed"

    - when: java_installed.stdout | from_json is not version("17.0.2", "==")
      debug:
        msg: "Java 17 is not installed"

and gives

PLAY [localhost] ****************************************************************************************************************

TASK [[install] Check for Java install] *****************************************************************************************
ok: [localhost]

TASK [show the raw and refactored captured var] *********************************************************************************
ok: [localhost] => {

    ]
}

}
