Exactly. which source gives nothing.
If I run the command at non-elevated level I get useful results and the
environment is filled
source /etc/lsb-release
echo $DISTRIB_CODENAME
bionic
sudo source /etc/lsb-release
[sudo] password for ubuntu:
sudo: source: command not found
So it is a matter of elevated access level, but I just don't know how to
run that at lower level...

source is a bash built-in command. There is no executable. You can
try "bash -c 'source /etc/lsb-release' "

Hi,
I'm banging my head trying to make this simple statement work:
- name: Get Ubuntu version definitions
ansible.builtin.shell: source /etc/lsb-release
But whatever I do I get this:
TASK [Get Ubuntu version definitions]
****************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [server1]: FAILED! => {"changed": true, "cmd": "source
/etc/lsb-release", "delta": "0:00:00.002579", "end": "2021-09-27
17:02:32.565396", "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 127,

source: not found", "stderr_lines": ["/bin/sh: 1: source: not
found"], "stdout": "", "stdout_lines": []}
This is most likely because I run at elevated permissions.
What can I do in order to make this work?
TIA
