hosts in ansible-pull working only for 127.0.0.1

Hi,

I am trying to use ansible-pull, however when i run it it always skips the hosts with the message " skippig: no hosts matched" unless i use

hosts: 127.0.0.1

in the local.yml file, any other host name even though it is defined in both the /etc/hosts and /etc/ansible/hosts will not work, but skips, i also tried to pass the inventory using -i hosts/pull.ini again it did not work,
What am i doing wrong, or how can investigate the reason of skipping further, i am using ansible 1.5

my pull command is

ansible-pull -d /tmp/mygitrepo -U MyGITURL

my simple play starts with:

Can you please share your Ansible version, as well as the full output from ansible-pull ?

Hi Michael,

I used both 1.5.0 cloned from github earlier today and created rpm in rhel5.3 using make rpm. i also tested 1.4.3, after working with benno in IRC i managed to get it working on different node RHEL5.4, will investigate the difference and try to pin the root casue

Probably a hostname that might not line up with inventory.

Look around in /usr/bin/ansible-pull and there isn’t too much there, should be straightforward to debug.

Let us know if you get stuck!

I did yum update on the server that was not working, it is release 5.3, and now it is working, i will keep an eye on it as we do have other nodes with 5.3 not updated. and will pinpoint it down now that i know it is package version issue

Hi All,

I am facing the same issue as “no hosts matched” and the ansible-pull is taking only localhost. It is not able to see any of my hosts. I also

Here is how i am using the command
