blank [ERROR]: when running ansible or ansible-playbook on ansible version 2.5.1

Hi,

I am using ansible version 2.5.1 on Centos 7. Whenever I try to use ansible command line or ansible-playbook with ec2.py on AWS I get a " [ERROR]:" after Using /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg as config file. The playbook runs fine after showing one blank error word. I tried using vvvv but the blank error stays same. When I execute ec2.py alone there are no errors. I tried passing JSON output only instead of ec2.py and ansible command works as expected and executes command remoteley on multipe remote servers but again with a blank message .If I use ansible to execute command on localhost then I do not get the blank error though. Weird

I also have ansible output with color enabled and [ERROR]: shows in red

Any ideas what could be causing ansible to give a blank “[ERROR]:” ?

Regards,
Abey

There was a bug that caused that empty ERROR to be displayed. It is a false positive, and does not indicate an actual error. The fix will be included in the 2.5.3 release.
