I wouldn't be surprised if I am using this incorrectly, but I could use
some outside input. Consider the following tree (not in a role):
.
├── get_user_info.yml
└── vault.yml
vault.yml contents:
---
ansible_user: someguy
ansible_password: SecretPassword
get_user_info.yml contents:
---
- hosts: "{{ host }}"
gather_facts: false
vars_files:
- vault.yml
tasks:
- name: "Gather info for user {{ user }}"
win_domain_user:
name: "{{ user }}"
state: query
register:
aduser
...debug stuff here...
*Q1: I had to use vars_files to get the variables read in. Is that
normal? Otherwise, my ansible_user kept defaulting to "NONE" when
executing (as seen under debug level 4)*
I execute the playbook as follows (which works) but get an error toward the
end (in the play recap):
ansible-playbook ./get_user_info.yml --vault-id @prompt vault.yml -i /etc/
ansible/inventory/windows -e user=someuser-e host=myserver
Output:
Vault password (default):
PLAY [myserver]
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
TASK [Gather info for user someuser]
******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
ok: [myserver]
TASK [debug]
*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
... a bunch of output here for someuser ...
PLAY RECAP
*******************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************
myserver : ok=4 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed
=0
ERROR! playbooks must be a list of plays
The error appears to have been in '/etc/ansible/tower/remove_user/vault.yml'
: line 2, column 1, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
The offending line appears to be:
$ANSIBLE_VAULT;1.1;AES256
63386238333136363662343339353362326564386230393766646263386639393838366433336261
^ here
*Q2: If I am not using vault correctly, can someone please correct me?*
*Q3: I don't understand why I am encountering the error in the play
recap. Can somebody explain that to me?*
