I have a custom fact as follows - /etc/ansible/facts.d/preference.fact
[new facts]
material = concrete
structure = square
When this is not executable, it works, when it is executable it throws an
error (shown below)
TASK [Gathering Facts]
*********************************************************
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "cmd":
"/etc/ansible/facts.d/preference.fact", "failed": true, "msg": "[Errno 8]
Exec format error", "rc": 8}
Trying to run a simple playbook to see if I can drill down into the
specific facts. I can get it to work fine if I stop at -> debug:
msg="Custom facts are {{ansible_local.preference}}"
But I cannot seem to drill down any further. The error above will not throw
when the fact is set to not executable, but will throw when the fact is
executable..
Any ideas on those 2 items? 1) How to drill down into a fact 2) How to
create the fact properly so that it doesnt throw an error? Maybe these are
related.
