Issue Report

When trying to install the module I'm getting the following:

bash-4.2# pwd
/opt/oci-ansible-modules

bash-4.2# ./install.py
Documentation fragments directory /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/utils/module_docs_fragments does not exist

Able to continue by creating the directory

bash-4.2# mkdir /usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/utils/module_docs_fragments

Expected behavior

bash-4.2# ./install.py

Thanks @koaps for reporting this. As a workaround can you please use ansible galaxy to install our modules till this issue is fixed. Please let us know if you need any help regarding that.

@koaps this issue will be fixed soon in the upcoming release. Ansible has changed the path for the documentation files that's why the installation script is failing.

thanks @nalsaber

@manojmeda thanks for the workaround, unfortunately our current setup doesn't use galaxy and introducing that now might cause problems, since we are building a docker image I can just add a step to create the directory as a workaround for now.
