When I run the playbook on the local computer against the target server, I get a very long error telling me the setup module failed.
`
$ ansible-playbook -i “server.fqdn,” playbooks/server_build.yml -K --ask-pass --check -vvvvv

`
And when i run the playbook on the target host itself, I get this error:
`
ansible-playbook -i “localhost,” -c local playbooks/server_build.yml -K -b --check
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {“changed”: false, “failed”: true, “module_stderr”: “su: Permission denied\n”, “module_stdout”: “”, “msg”: “MODULE FAILURE”, “parsed”: false}
`
I’m not sure where the permission is denied. In the script, I have become root, so I would think it would run correctly. Any ideas what’s gone wrong? Is it me or something with ansible
