Looking for a little advise… new to ansible …

Here is the task …
which is in playbook from
github … ansible-for-devops.

`
tasks:

TOMCAT 7

  • name: Install Tomcat 7.
    apt: “pkg={{ item }} state=installed”
    with_items:
  • tomcat7
  • tomcat7-admin

`

Are you setting sudo to true somewhere else. It's hard to see when
you've just shown a portion of playbook. If not and you just need sudo
for this task, then you can set it per-task like so:

tasks:
  # TOMCAT 7 ###################################################################
  - name: Install Tomcat 7.
    apt: "pkg={{ item }} state=installed"
    sudo: true
    with_items:
      - tomcat7
      - tomcat7-admin
