Hi I've got a machine that needs to have remote_tmp set to "$HOME/.ansible/tmp". But this gives me issues with the rest of the boxes. So the option in the config file says "remote_tmp = /tmp".
I've tried to set the option on the inventory file for this host only: commando remote_tmp=$HOME/.ansible/tmp and also as a host_variable in host_file_dir/host_vars/hostname: $ cat host_vars/commando -rw-rw-r-- 1 ansible ansible 35 Feb 12 10:34 host_vars/commando --- remote_tmp: $HOME/.ansible/tmp It does not work: $ ansible commando -m ping -K sudo password: previous known host file not found commando | FAILED => Authentication or permission failure. In some cases, you may have been able to authenticate and did not have permissions on the remote directory. Consider changing the remote temp path in ansible.cfg to a path rooted in "/tmp". Failed command was: mkdir -p /tmp/ansible-1392202978.96-158385720428034 && chmod a+rx /tmp/ansible-1392202978.96-158385720428034 && echo /tmp/ansible-1392202978.96-158385720428034, exited with result 1: mkdir: cannot create directory `/tmp/ansible-1392202978.96-158385720428034': Permission denied There's something I'm not doing right, and I'm trusting the more experienced crowd here will be able to give me some insight. PS. Also, if you happen to know why I'm getting the previous "known host file not found", that would be great Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
