  • Ansible Tower - Local Delegation and Local Action is not working

    Posted on

    Hi All

    I have playbook which include a task which should run locally on ansible server. The playbook works fine while running using ansible core command. The same playbook is not working if I create a job template for it to execute it in Ansible tower. I tried both methods (local_action and delegated_to) none of them is working. Example playbook:

    • hosts: all
      vars:
      filesLoc: /data/SepRepo/LiveUpdateDownloadScripts/workfolder/
      become: true
      become_user: root
      become_method: sudo
      tasks:

      • name: "Check if New File Arrived in {{ flieLoc }}"
        local_action:
        module: find
        path: "{{ filesLoc }}"
        patterns: '*-unix.sh'
        register: result

      • debug: var=result.matched
