I have Ansible 2.8.0 and Python 2.7.5. I tried to run the following
playbook to upgrade the packages on a Debian host which has Python 2.7.3. I
got the ""The following modules failed to execute: setup\n setup: MODULE
FAILURE\nSee stdout/stderr for the exact error\n"}" in the Gathering facts
part. Please advice. Thanks in advance.
name: Update and upgrade apt packages
new-buildserver.yaml:
---
# Plan
# use a staging inventory file or specify individual hosts
# copy repos
# install packages
# copy configs for installed packages
# install cpan modules
# update all the things to appropriate levels
# install mxdk
