There's no leading "0" on your mode number 2770. In Perl, the run-time parses numbers as decimal unless they have certain hint prefixes, like "0x" for hexadecimal and "0" for octal.
I don't know how Python parses numbers, but 2770 decimal = 5322 octal, so it looks like that may be the source of the confusion. The ansible.com docs for the file module don't address this explicitly, but both the examples have a leading "0" in the mode number. It looks to me like a mode number of "02770" is what you need. -Greg On Sun, Aug 10, 2014 at 10:00 AM, Deon Bredenhann <[email protected]> wrote: > - name: Create test > file: > path: /srv/test > state: directory > mode: 2770 > owner: root > group: admin > > Output of -v > {"changed": true, "gid": 6003, "group": "admin", "mode": "05322", "owner": > "root", "path": "/srv/test", "size": 4096, "state": "directory", "uid": 0} > > So the mode of 2770 somehow gets converted to 05322 > > So any mode with SetGID, SetUID or SetSticky, gets mangled. > Tried in 1.6 and 1.7 > > 1770 -> 03352 > 2770 -> 05322 > 4770 -> 01242 > > I should convert the end permissions to octal and see if there is a > pattern.
