Hi Here,

While Im installing the ansible on MacOS X EI Capitan, Im getting below one after installation and doing ansible --version

Rameshs-MacBook-Pro:~ Ramesh$ ansible --version
ansible 2.1.1.0
  config file =
  configured module search path = Default w/o overrides
Rameshs-MacBook-Pro:~ Ramesh$ which ansible
/usr/local/bin/ansible

​

I can’t get the config file name here

Help me on fixing this.

Rameshs-MacBook-Pro:~ Ramesh$ which ansible
/usr/local/bin/ansible

Hi Ramesha,

Can you check if /etc/ansible has an “ansible.cfg” file?

If yes, do check the permission.
Else, you may hand-create the file and edit the contents.

Hello,

If you put a config file with any of the names listed below in the directories mentioned below I believe you will find your problem solved.

`

  • ANSIBLE_CONFIG (an environment variable)
  • ansible.cfg (in the current directory)
  • .ansible.cfg (in the home directory)
  • /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg

`

Here are the relevant docs:

Cheers mate,

Alex

Hi Rameshs, do you have a ansible.cfg config file ready in /etc/ansible?
