Sudo via ansible error

[Ovidio B.]

Greetings, 

I've created a simple playbook that adds some packages to an ubuntu system. I'm using packer with the ansible provisioner to get things setup but I keep getting hit with the following error message in verbose mode: 

virtualbox-ovf: failed: [127.0.0.1] => (item=apache2,git,php5,php5-gd) => {"failed": true, "item": "apache2,git,php5,php5-gd", "parsed": false}

virtualbox-ovf: [sudo via ansible, key=nttwhnattzqhpxjrbhcvutsbslalooch] password:

Just before that error message I do have some success with the key though: 

virtualbox-ovf: <127.0.0.1> EXEC /bin/sh -c 'sudo -k && sudo -H -S -p "[sudo via ansible, key=nttwhnattzqhpxjrbhcvutsbslalooch] password: " -u root /bin/sh -c '"'"'echo BECOME-SUCCESS-nttwhnattzqhpxjrbhcvutsbslalooch; LANG=C LC_CTYPE=C /usr/bin/python /home/vagrant/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1447465858.15-164219871112034/apt; rm -rf /home/vagrant/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1447465858.15-164219871112034/ >/dev/null 2>&1'"'"''

As you can see I'm calling sudo, but I'm still getting the error. I've tried the new `become` function but still haven't had any success. Has anyone seen this before?

Looks like the issue lied in my /etc/sudoers files - fixed it by making the following changes in my packer build:

sed -i -e '/Defaults\s\+env_reset/a Defaults\texempt_group=sudo' /etc/sudoers

sed -i -e 's/%sudo  ALL=(ALL:ALL) ALL/%sudo  ALL=NOPASSWD:ALL/g' /etc/sudoers
