Hi All,

I am a newbie to ansible.

I am following [this blog](https://albertomolina.wordpress.com/2015/10/13/openshift-3-on-openstack/) to install OpenShift Origin V3 on OpenStack using ansible. But I am getting error as below:

_**“Could not create fact file: %s, error: %s” % (filename, ex)**_  
_**main.OpenShiftFactsFileWriteError: Could not create fact file: /etc/ansible/facts.d/openshift.fact, error: [Errno 13] Permission**_  
_ **denied: ‘/etc/ansible/facts.d’** _

The target system is Centos and I can do passwordless sudo on the target systems. I even added in /etc/sudoers

centos All=(ALL) NOPASSWD:ALL

to all the nodes and also on the system from which I am running ansible.

From the system I run ansible, I tried executing as sudo, as root but same results.

I am not sure where it faces permission denied, I mean on the host or the target systems.

**Ansible vars:**

[OSEv3:vars]  
ansible\_ssh\_user=centos  
ansible\_sudo=true

**Ansible.cfg**

[defaults]  
hostfile = ansible\_hosts  
remote\_user = centos  
host\_key\_checking = False

Below is the full log:

I have no prior experience with ansible, therefore I am unable to debug more.

It’s not giving an error on your local system. That’s telling you that whatever file your task is touching on the remote (“managed”) system, the user that is running the command doesn’t have permission to modify the file. So what this is telling you is that the user that is running the specific task (the user that logged into the remote machine, not the user that is running the ansible playbook) does not have permission to write to /etc/ansible. Check what user is making the connection on the remote system / what user it is logging INTO that system as, and if you need to add “sudo: yes” and/or “sudo\_user: username” to the play. This applies EVEN IF THE REMOTE MANAGED MACHINE IS THE SAME MACHINE FROM WHICH YOU ARE RUNNING ANSIBLE. IE: If you’re running a play on “localhost”, running ansible inside sudo doesn’t change the user you’re logging into localhost with, and thus what permissions that user has on localhost.

Thanks for the reply.

How can I check which user is logging into the remote?

Below are the config parameters which has user details:

**Ansible vars:**

[OSEv3:vars]  
**ansible\_ssh\_user=centos**  
**ansible\_sudo=true**

**Ansible.cfg**

[defaults]  
hostfile = ansible\_hosts  
**remote\_user = centos**  
host\_key\_checking = False

Is it something different from this? Sorry, this is first time I am using ansible.

I can ssh into the target system as “**ssh [centos@192.168.144.132](mailto:centos@192.168.144.132)**” and I can then create files in /etc/ansible folders.

Meanwhile, I added sudo =yes and sudo\_user = centos in the .cfg and installation went ahead but now new error. Below is the log:
