hi all,
strange little problem here, so i have this quite quirky role which removes all rpm’s from an aix system and rolls out a whole new rpm distribution. this also involves
removal of the default python and installing a fallback python for ansible, but this all works and is already sorted out.
per default the root user, which is used by ansible as the remote user has bash set as default shell. this is changed during play to ksh via the chsh command.
the following environment/variables are set in the ansible role/play level.
`
ansible_shell_executable: “/usr/bin/ksh”
ansible_shell_interpreter: “/usr/bin/ksh”
ansible_python_interpreter: “/opt/bin/python”
SHELL: “/usr/bin/ksh”
PATH: “/opt/bin:/opt/freeware/bin:{{ ansible_env.PATH }}”
LIBPATH: “/opt/lib:/usr/lib:/lib:/opt/freeware/lib”
`
anyhow, somehing inside ansible persits using /usr/bin/bash which make the whole play fail.
