rundeck unable to execute powershell script with i

I am running several python scripts via rundeck (in-line) on windows 2012 target node. These scripts used to run locally but now in the process of moving to rundeck.

One of the python scripts opens subprocess to invoke a powershell script and read the output.

import subprocess
CMD = [r'C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe ', '-File', r'C:\Users\Osman\Code\mop.ps1']
cmd = CMD[:]
cmd.append('arg1')
cmd.append('arg2')
cmd.append('arg3')
p = subprocess.Popen(cmd, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
r = p.communicate()
print(r)

The mop.ps1 is

Import-Module MSOnline
$domain = $args[0]
$login = $args[1]
$pass = $args[2]
$EPass = $pass | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force
$Cred = New-Object System.Management.Automation.PsCredential($login, $EPass)
Connect-MsolService -Credential $Cred
$TenantId = Get-MsolPartnerContract -Domain $domain | Select-Object -ExpandProperty TenantId
Get-MsolAccountSKU -TenantId $TenantId | select SkuPartNumber,ActiveUnits,ConsumedUnits | ConvertTo-Csv -NoTypeInformation

This part of the code always fails to execute and if I check stderr it says:

        Connect-MsolService : Exception of type 'Microsoft.Online.Administration.Automation.MicrosoftOnlineException' was thrown.
At C:\Users\Osman\Code\mop.ps1:7 char:1 
+ Connect-MsolService -Credential $Cred

I'm not sure why it fails. I tried

Import-Module MSOnline -Verbose

And I can see Cmdlets being loaded. I tried creating profile.ps1 file in C:\WINDOWS\system32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\ location.

Everything works fine if I execute the code locally. I tried running a regular test .ps1 file 'disk.ps1' instead of my code, and that works fine because it doesn't load any modules:

get-WmiObject win32_logicaldisk -Computername $env:computername

What's the workaround to get a script with module to run properly? stdout is always empty.

Node is registered as 64 bit so I tried changing the cmd to

C:\Windows\SysWOW64\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\powershell.exe

I tried to copy profile.ps1 there, copied the Module there but still doesn't work via rundeck.

From your description, since you are able to get a valid output when running the script directly from the server, it may be possible that you error could be related to the “Second Hop” that you use to login into MS-Online. Currently, the Rundeck Python-Winrm plugin supports Basic, ntlm or CredSSP Authentication, and CredSSP authentication allows you to perform the second hop successfully.
