Hello,

I updated to ansible 1.5.3 and now i am not able to run my ruby scripts using “local\_action” and “command” module.

It was running perfectly fine with ansible 1.4.3.

I’m guessing that the issue is there’s no stdout? See if using the shell module instead of the command module, makes it work.
