Description Kamil Páral 2018-05-21 17:26:27 UTC
Description of problem:
It seems that "synchronize" task is completely broken with ansible 2.5.3-1. It works just fine with 2.5.2-1.

Reproducer:

$ cat playbook.yml 
- hosts: all
  remote_user: root
  gather_facts: no
  tasks:
    - name: Synchronize dirs
      synchronize:
        src: "/tmp/foo/"
        dest: "/tmp/foo"


$ ansible-playbook playbook.yml --inventory=taskotron.local, 

PLAY [all] **********************************************************************************************

TASK [Synchronize dirs] *********************************************************************************
fatal: [taskotron.local]: UNREACHABLE! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Authentication or permission failure. In some cases, you may have been able to authenticate and did not have permissions on the target directory. Consider changing the remote tmp path in ansible.cfg to a path rooted in \"/tmp\". Failed command was: ( umask 77 && mkdir -p \"` echo /root/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1526923234.13-73396312477698 `\" && echo ansible-tmp-1526923234.13-73396312477698=\"` echo /root/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1526923234.13-73396312477698 `\" ), exited with result 1", "unreachable": true}
	to retry, use: --limit @/home/kparal/tmp/playbook.retry

PLAY RECAP **********************************************************************************************
taskotron.local            : ok=0    changed=0    unreachable=1    failed=0   



However, running the same playbook with ansible 2.5.2-1:

$ ansible-playbook playbook.yml --inventory=taskotron.local, 

PLAY [all] **********************************************************************************************

TASK [Synchronize dirs] *********************************************************************************
ok: [taskotron.local]

PLAY RECAP **********************************************************************************************
taskotron.local            : ok=1    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=0   


The quoted command
umask 77 && mkdir -p \"` echo /root/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1526923234.13-73396312477698 `\" && echo ansible-tmp-1526923234.13-73396312477698=\"` echo /root/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1526923234.13-73396312477698 `\"
can be executed just fine on the target machine, I have no idea why 2.5.3 errors out with exit code 1.


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
ansible-2.5.3-1.fc28.noarch  (broken)
ansible-2.5.2-1.fc28.noarch  (works)

Comment 1 Kevin Fenzi 2018-05-21 17:36:23 UTC
Likely https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/40483

Comment 2 sivel 2018-05-22 17:49:26 UTC
#40483 was related, but a different specific problem.

I've logged https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/40551 for this issue.

Comment 3 sivel 2018-05-30 20:40:27 UTC
#40551 is now resolved, and backports for 2.5.4 and 2.6.0 have been created.
