Some things to try: If you cut and pasted the ansible.cfg section, the spelling of the section header is incorrect:
s/ssh_connectin/ssh_connection/ Check that you don't have an old control socket lying around in ~/.ansible/cp/ between fixing that problem or otherwise updating your ssh connection parameters and trying again. Invoke ansible with the -vvvv flag to see what options are making it to the invocation of ssh. I created a github repo and tried this just now. I moved my existing .ssh/config out of the way first and then created an ansible.cfg with the misspelled section header. Running: ansible rhel7 -m git -a 'repo=g...@bitbucket.org:toshio/local-playbooks dest=/var/tmp/plays' Replicated your symptoms. Fixing the section header and then making sure there was no control socket still laying around in ~/.ansible/cp/ I then ran the above ansible command and it was successful -Toshio On Sun, Oct 26, 2014 at 2:43 PM, sam <samp4...@gmail.com> wrote: > i can't clone a remote repo: > > failed: [IP_ADDRESS_REMOVED] => {"cmd": "/usr/bin/git ls-remote > g...@bitbucket.org:REMOVED/REMOVED.git -h refs/heads/HEAD", "failed": true, > "rc": 128} > stderr: Permission denied (publickey). > > > i have this in my ansible.cfg: > > [defaults] > transport= ssh > > [ssh_connectin] > ssh_args = -o ForwardAgent=yes > > not sure what to do at this point, i could use some help > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ansible Project" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to ansible-project+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. > To post to this group, send email to ansible-project@googlegroups.com. > To view this discussion on the web visit > https://groups.google.com/d/msgid/ansible-project/ba0c98af-ef91-4180-8d0a-d682349303c9%40googlegroups.com. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
