The vault password file /home/user./vault was not found

[ssn7819]

Hi Guys

Initially I was using a vault file to store sensitive information and pass them in.

It was working. Now I removed any reference to the vault file as I wanted to test something else.

Now I keep getting the below error 

ERROR The vault password file /home/user./vault was not found

Below is the actual command I used to run the ansible playbook

Actual command

anisble-playbook -i $HOST_FILE playbbok.yml --extra-vars "target_hosts=$2"

Things that I have checked

there is no reference to the pass word file in ansible.cfg

Any pointer is highly appreciated.

Thanks.

I suspect you have the vault secrets file configured somewhere, use:

ansible-config dump --only-changed

to find out where
