hi, friends,

I have a problem:

Some data;

ansible 2.6.3

3.10.0-693.21.1.el7.x86\_64 #1 SMP Wed Mar 7 19:03:37 UTC 2018 x86\_64 x86\_64 x86\_64 GNU/Linux

prokect base yml;

/var/lib/awx/projects/helloworld

dr-xr–r–. 3 awx awx 4096 Sep 10 14:43 helloworld

-rw-r–r–. 1 awx awx 112 Sep 7 03:39 helloworld.yml

My problem, when i will create a project in AWX after select SCM type MAnual

WARNING: There are no available playbook directories in /var/lib/awx/projects. Either that directory is empty, or all of the contents are already assigned to other projects. Create a new directory there and make sure the playbook files can be read by the “awx” system user, or have AWX directly retrieve your playbooks from source control using the SCM Type option above.

Then dolder and files owner are awx like you cann see above .

thanks

jose pinto
