Hi all;

Just looking for a little help to spot what I might be missing. Against a 
Centos 7 box, using Ansible 2.1.0, this task:

 - name: restart httpd
      service:
        name: httpd
        state: restarted

is giving me an "Interactive authentication required." error when run under 
Ansible 2.1.0 via:

ansible-playbook -i inventory test.yml --sudo --ask-sudo-pass --ask-become-
pass --sudo -vvvv


My playbook is set with:

  # The user that logs into the machine
  remote_user: apps

  # Indicates that we also want to be become the user we log in as, for 
running tasks
  # (otherwise the user defaults to root)
  become: yes
  become_user: apps


and on the Centos 7 box, my "apps" user is in the "wheel" group, and the 
wheel group is covered with sudoer permissions as follows:

## Allows people in group wheel to run all commands
%wheel  ALL=(ALL)       ALL

## Same thing without a password
%wheel  ALL=(ALL)       NOPASSWD: ALL


I understood that with my playbook set to use "become", and "become_user", 
that this task would run as sudo? 

So, why the "Interactive authentication required" error? 

Of course, I can resort to:

    - name: Restart apache
      shell: sudo systemctl restart httpd


which doesn't prompt me, but I'd like to understand why the advocated 
method isn't observing that I'm running under sudo? 

Many thanks,
Tim
