KeyError: 'module_blacklist'

[igor haase]

Hi there,

I am new in ansible started yesterday. I got the WARNING The plugin filter file, /etc/ansible/plugin_filters.yml does not exist

when I ran ansible --list-hosts ubuntu20

So I created that file like this:

---
filter_version: '1.0'
module_rejectlist:
  # Deprecated
  - docker
  # We only allow pip, not easy_install
  - easy_install

Now I get this error when I run the command above:

ERROR! Unexpected Exception, this is probably a bug: 'NoneType' object is not subscriptable
the full traceback was:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    mycli = getattr(__import__("ansible.cli.%s" % sub, fromlist=[myclass]), myclass)

[uli@xxxxxx production]$ su
Password:

exit

What does this Message mean and how can I fix that. Google couldn't help me so far.

Many thanks in advance,

Igor

you have `module_rejectlist`, but it requires `module_blacklist`
