ansible wont use csh even if it set in inverntory

[Michael Veselovski]

Hello 

I'm having problem with using ansible with my freebsd 10.1 hosts

there is example of my play 

freebsd.local ansible_ssh_host=192.168.2.110  ansible_ssh_pass='XXXXXXXXX' ansible_shell_type=csh ansible_python_interpreter=/usr/local/bin/python 

and there is example of output

ansible new-hosts -l freebsd.local -m shell -a 'uptime'  -vvv 

<192.168.2.110> ESTABLISH CONNECTION FOR USER: root

<192.168.2.110> REMOTE_MODULE command uptime #USE_SHELL

<192.168.2.110> EXEC sshpass -d6 ssh -C -v -o ControlMaster=auto -o ControlPersist=60s -o ControlPath="/home/michael/.ansible/cp/ansible-ssh-%h-%p-%r" -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o GSSAPIAuthentication=no -o PubkeyAuthentication=no -o User=root -o ConnectTimeout=10 192.168.2.110 /bin/sh -c 'env LANG=en_US.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 /usr/local/bin/python'

in if I run  sshpass command I've got

debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,keyboard-interactive

debug1: Next authentication method: publickey

debug1: Offering RSA public key: /home/michael/.ssh/id_rsa

debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,keyboard-interactive

debug1: Trying private key: /home/michael/.ssh/id_dsa

debug1: Trying private key: /home/michael/.ssh/id_ecdsa

debug1: Trying private key: /home/michael/.ssh/id_ed25519

debug1: Next authentication method: keyboard-interactive

on host side I see only this when I press ctrl+c

Jul 17 14:03:20 freebsd sshd[769]: Connection closed by 192.168.2.152 [preauth]

ansible --version

ansible 1.9.2

  configured module search path = None

python on ansible host

python -V

Python 2.7.9

on freebsd

python -V

Python 2.7.10

any ideas where I should dig further  ? 

thanks

Michael

if you are using ssh passwords, switch to paramiko as your transport,
the normally installed sshpass cannot handle FreeBSD password prompts,
paramiko doesn't use sshpass and can bypass this.

ansible_shell_type does not force csh execution, it is there for when
your default shell is csh and ansible needs to quote thing differently
to pipe over ssh.
