Hello,  
About a week ago I updated ansible and am getting the following error:

[ansible@jump04 ansible1]$ /usr/bin/ansible-galaxy install --force -p roles -r /opt/syseng/automation/ansible1/roles.yml --ignore-errors  
Starting galaxy role install process  
ERROR! Unexpected Exception, this is probably a bug: ‘version’

Can you show us what your requirements file contains? (And I’m curious why you call it “/opt/syseng/automation/ansible1/roles.yml” rather than “/something/something/requirements.yml”.)

Was there anything interesting when you ran it with “-vvv”?

ansible-galaxy just pulls down my roles. I just haven’t changed it yet.

Also I don’t have a requirements.yml. I use the roles.yml.

Hi I am getting this same error on RHEL 8 and RHEL 9 using the latest version of ansible on BOTH.

Also does the yaml file I call need to be requirements.yml? I prefer it be called roles.yml since I’m using this to install all of my roles. It just makes sense to me for now. I have no problem changing it…

Here is the output:

[ansible@jump05 ansible1]$ /usr/bin/ansible-galaxy role install -p roles -r /opt/syseng/automation/ansible1/roles.yml -f -i -vvv

libyaml = True  
Using /opt/syseng/automation/ansible1/ansible.cfg as config file  
Reading requirement file at ‘/opt/syseng/automation/ansible1/roles.yml’

There is a gap here because it lists all of the my repos and I would rather not post that infromation.
