GitLab pipeline usage

[dustin1530]

Sorry if this is the incorrect place to ask this, but I thought I would start here. I'm attempting to use the creator-ee image in a gitlab pipeline, our gitlab runners are running in a container via podman on RHEL 8, typically a "Docker-in-Docker" type of configuration just using podman. I have the ci file setup correctly, but when it comes to running molecule, molecule test for example, I get the following:

PLAYBOOK: create.yml ***********************************************************
PLAY [Create] ******************************************************************
TASK [Get podman executable path] **********************************************
task path: /usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/molecule_plugins/podman/playbooks/create.yml:11
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {
    "censored": "the output has been hidden due to the fact that 'no_log: true' was specified for this result"
}
PLAY RECAP *********************************************************************
localhost                  : ok=0    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=1    skipped=0    rescued=0    ignored=0
CRITICAL Ansible return code was 2, command was: ['ansible-playbook', '--diff', '--inventory', '/home/runner/.cache/molecule/apache/default/inventory', '--skip-tags', 'molecule-notest,notest', '/usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/molecule_plugins/podman/playbooks/create.yml']

Which I don't know what I'm missing since I am able to print the version of the different application running in the creator-ee image before the molecule command is ran.

$ python -V
Python 3.11.3
$ ansible --version
ansible [core 2.15.1]
  config file = None
  configured module search path = ['/home/runner/.ansible/plugins/modules', '/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules']
  ansible python module location = /usr/local/lib/python3.11/site-packages/ansible
  ansible collection location = /home/runner/.ansible/collections:/usr/share/ansible/collections
  executable location = /usr/local/bin/ansible
  python version = 3.11.3 (main, May 24 2023, 00:00:00) [GCC 13.1.1 20230511 (Red Hat 13.1.1-2)] (/usr/bin/python3)
  jinja version = 3.1.2
  libyaml = True
$ molecule --version
molecule 5.1.0 using python 3.11

    vagrant:23.4.1 from molecule_plugins
$ podman --version
podman version 4.5.1

Anyone have any experience running this in a gitlab pipeline in docker-in-docker configuration? Or know of any good documentation on how to accomplish this if possible? Any help is appreciated.
