run command on ansible host with sudo privilege.

[Kevin Parent]

Hi guys, I am using:

- hosts: 127.0.0.1

  connection: local

to execute command on the ansible host, I disabled privilege escalation because I would get an error message:

"module_stderr": "sudo: effective uid is not 0, is /usr/bin/sudo on a file system with the 'nosuid' option set or an NFS file system without root privileges?

Im trying to execute the command: npm install --production. but some of the packages requires sudo permission to be installed

So now what?

:(.

Can you sudo normally on your machine?

You can also use su or other methods if sudo is not available on your machine, or execute the ansible itself as root.
