[root@hackerdev ansible]# ansible web -m yum -a "name=MySQL-pytho

What do you have in your ansible.cfg for stdout_callback?

3

No its all commented

[root@hackerdev 6.2]# grep callback /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg

change the default callback

#stdout_callback = skippy

enable additional callbacks

#callback_whitelist = timer, mail
#callback_plugins = /usr/share/ansible/plugins/callback

by default callbacks are not loaded for /bin/ansible, enable this if you

want, for example, a notification or logging callback to also apply to

#bin_ansible_callbacks = False
[root@hackerdev 6.2]# grep stdout /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
#stdout_callback = skippy

stdout from ansible-playbook (or you have manually specified no_log in your

#display_args_to_stdout = False
[root@hackerdev 6.2]#

4

Uncomment the stdout_callback line. The Skippy callback plugin gives pretty clean output.
