Problems with parsing simple playbooks on latest dev version

Hi everyone,

I’m having a horrible time parsing a playbook that worked fine last week (always on HEAD). I may have an error, but I can’t find it.

This breaks immediately with

ERROR: group is not a legal parameter in an Ansible task or handler

This looks like you're running ansible from git and haven't updated
due to the new module repo split change detailed here:

Specifically these commands need to be run so that your ansible
checkout knows about how things are split into submodules:

git pull --rebase
git submodule update

Thanks.

For what it’s worth, the problem persisted after a pull --rebase and submodule update, but deleting the cloned repo and cloning again with --recursive did the trick.

The correct git command was:

“git submodule update --init --recursive”

And probably would have fixed it, I think.

Glad you are operational!
