Issue with local_action

[Joe Talerico]

Executing a local_action, and i expect it to execute as the user running the playbook, however it attempts to sudo....

- hosts: all

  gather_facts: False

  become: false

  sudo: false

  name: Generating bug report

  tasks:

    - local_action: template src=templates/bug_report.j2 dest=./bug_report.log owner=jtaleric group=jtaleric

      sudo: false

Error:

Any thoughts?

You should not need to set become/sudo to false (also they are
redundant) unless you are setting it elsewhere to do so. If set
through the command line, ansible.cfg or environment variables.

If you set the inventory vars 'ansible_become/ansible_sudo', these
would override the directives, to avoid this you should set them at
the play level which will obey normal variable precedence.
