win_unzip does not extract file












3















I want to install (an older version of) Eclipse on some Windows 7 hosts with Ansible.
My playbook installs Java and downloads the needed zip file, but win_unzip does not extract the file.



- name: Ensure Eclipse Luna RCP is extracted
win_unzip:
src: '%TEMP%eclipse-rcp-luna-SR2-win32.zip'
dest: '%userprofile%Programseclipse_luna'
tags: eclipse


When the task is executed, I can see that a powershell process is running on the Windows host and is consuming some CPU.
After some time I get the following result by Ansible:



TASK [Ensure Eclipse Luna RCP is extracted] ************
ok: [192.168.1.87] => {"changed": false,
"dest": "C:\Users\testuser\Programs\eclipse_luna",
"removed": false,
"src": "C:\Users\testuser\AppData\Local\Temp\eclipse-rcp-luna-SR2-win32.zip"
}


The result is a bit strange because the win_zip documentation states:




This module is not really idempotent, it will extract the archive every time, and report a change.




Due to this I expect a changed and not an ok.
Nevertheless the folder C:UserstestuserProgramseclipse_luna was created but is empty.
