Unable to copy keys from management server to remote server

[Raj Desikavinayagompillai]

Hello,

Following was the error message. Playbook creates the user but does not copy the keys from management server to destination server. 

Am I missing something here?

 ansible-playbook -vvvvv /etc/ansible/site.yml

msg: could not find src=/home/dummyuser1/.ssh/authorized_keys

# master playbook file: site.yml

- hosts: ansible_slaves

  remote_user: ansible

  tasks:

   - name: Add test user

     user:

       name=dummyuser

       password='dummyuser’

       groups=ansible

       shell=/bin/bash

       append=yes

   - name: creates the .ssh directory

     file: path=/home/dummyuser/.ssh state=directory

   - name: Copying ssh key files

     copy:

       src=/home/dummyuser1/.ssh/authorized_keys dest=/home/dummyuser/.ssh/authorized_keys owner=dummyuser group=ansible mode=600               

  sudo: yes

Hello,

This is due to a permission issue in the management server. To test it, I copied the file to /tmp and checked and it worked.

Now to fix this permanently, how do I have sudo for "src". This is the reason it is not working.

Thanks

sudo ansible-playbook ....


or use a local action with sudo: true that copies the key to temporary
spot for you to be able to use with copy.
