Ansilbe tower install fail

Hi,

I’m trying to install ansible tower version of 3.2.3-1.el7.x86_64 on a redhat 7.4 OS.

i’m getting error as

TASK [postgres : create the postgres user and set the password] *****************************************************************************************************

There’s no point in making changes to the playbook(s). It’s probably an issue with your inventory.

I’m hitting this issue, too, on 3.2.5. What’s wrong with my inventory:

rowagn@dbatower01:~/ansible-tower-setup-bundle-3.2.5-1.el7#> more inventory
[tower]
localhost ansible_connection=local

[database]

[all:vars]
admin_password=‘xxx’

pg_host=‘’
pg_port=‘’

pg_database=‘awx’
pg_username=‘awx’
pg_password=‘xxx’

rabbitmq_port=5672
rabbitmq_vhost=tower
rabbitmq_username=tower
rabbitmq_password=‘xxx’
rabbitmq_cookie=cookiemonster

Needs to be true for fqdns and ip addresses

rabbitmq_use_long_name=false

Isolated Tower nodes automatically generate an RSA key for authentication;

To disable this behavior, set this value to false

isolated_key_generation=true

My problem isn’t the inventory, it’s that roles/postgres/tasks/conf.yml includes a “become_user: postgres.” Our environment precludes root from having sudo privs. This is actually breaking several parts of the installation.
