VERIFIED.

@Satellite 6.8.0 Snap12
tfm-rubygem-foreman_ansible-5.1.1-1.el7sat.noarch

by the following manual reproducer:

1) Create a bogus role 'foo'

# touch /usr/share/ansible/roles/foo

2) Import the role 'foo'

# hammer ansible roles import --proxy-id 1 --role-names foo
Result:   
  The following ansible roles were changed
Imported: 
 1) foo

3) Import ansible variables (for the role 'foo')

REPRO:

# hammer ansible variables import --proxy-id 1
Could not import variables:
  Internal Server Error: the server was unable to finish the request. This may be caused by unavailability of some required service, incorrect API call or a server-side bug. There may be more information in the server's logs.

vs.

FIX:

# hammer ansible variables import --proxy-id 1
Result: 
  No changes in ansible variables detected.

>>> if there is bogus role then ansible variables import is not failing on that
