Thanks Brian Not quite sure I understand, it's the output I'm trying to get (more of) to understand why it's failing.
In case it helps at all Here's the play 2 created that it fails on. This is fine to run directly through ansible-playbook, just not through that play1 - hosts: nott become: yes vars_files: - /$LINUX_PLAYBOOKS/paperless/mont_nott_vars.yml tasks: roles: # - geerlingguy.postgresql - paperless-ng # - geerlingguy.nginx Here's the section of play 1 # post_tasks: - name: run the play - $LINUX_PLAYBOOKS/paperless/{{play_filename}} import_playbook: $LINUX_PLAYBOOKS/paperless/{{play_filename}} register: playoutput ignore_errors: yes # delegate_to: 127.0.0.1 become: yes # debugger: on_failed - name: get debug output debug: var: playoutput Does that help, or is there something else I can run to get more detail from that mysterious " See stdout/stderr for the exact error" That's what the debug var playoutput should provide isn't it ??
