Hi Greg,

I'm experiencing the same thing on 2 servers, rest are fine. I can ssh to 
them and I cannot see anything obviously wrong:

TASK [setup] 
*******************************************************************

fatal: [0ca87760df7de0fe2d36]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": 
true, "msg": "this module requires key=value arguments 
(['<<INCLUDE_ANSIBLE_MODULE_ARGS>>'])"}

fatal: [33ac8c46007794dee1a6]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": 
true, "msg": "this module requires key=value arguments 
(['<<INCLUDE_ANSIBLE_MODULE_ARGS>>'])"}

to retry, use: --limit @timeboxes.retry


I resolved the problem by moving this file out of the way:


sudo mv /usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/easy-install.pth 
/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/easy-install.pth.backup


Very strange.
