Question about stack trace

Any idea what these errors would mean ?

The remote machine is a centos 6.

Line is:

  • name: Set Environment Variables in bashrc
    lineinfile: dest=.bashrc regexp=“^export TOOLSREPO=~/kk-tools” line=“export TOOLSREPO=~/kk-tools” state=present create=yes
    register: update_bashrc
    when_string: $ansible_pkg_mgr == ‘yum’

Stack trace is:

invalid output was: Traceback (most recent call last):
File “/home/kk/.ansible/tmp/ansible-1369793563.52-51180351954149/lineinfile”, line 1218, in

I guess this avoids the crash.

:slight_smile: Thanks! But i still cant figure out what case that error would come up, The file has write permissions , i even made it 777 and still it fails.

Any tips on how to debug and fix ?

Nope, this was me, I changed the function scope not realizing it became a method.
