destination not writable error

[Sol]

Hello, 

I'm trying to run a simple test playbook to copy files over to a vagrant vm.  The specs are:

ubuntu/trusty64 box 

vagrant 1.7.3 

ansible 1.9.2

 

The playbook looks like this:

---

- hosts: test-db

  tasks:

  - name: Add vagrant sudoers file

    copy: src=vagrant_sudoers dest=/etc/sudoers.d/vagrant validate='visudo -cf %s' group=root owner=root mode=440

    sudo: true

  - name: Add deploy group sudoers file

    copy: src=deploy_sudoers dest=/etc/sudoers.d/deploy validate='visudo -cf %s' group=root owner=root mode=440

    sudo: true

Here is how i ran the playbook:

$ ansible-playbook -i ansible_hosts -u vagrant -U vagrant --private-key=/home/sol/tmp/postgis/.vagrant/machines/db/virtualbox/private_key --sudo test.yml 

And getting the output:

PLAY [all] ******************************************************************** 

GATHERING FACTS *************************************************************** 

ok: [192.168.50.4]

TASK: [Add vagrant sudoers file] ********************************************** 

failed: [192.168.50.4] => {"checksum": "f817b060b579b9ba2b9850b1177c0a2e938ab326", "failed": true}

msg: Destination /etc/sudoers.d not writable

FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting

I can log in to the vagrant box as user vagrant and run sudo commands.   I'm wondering if i'm missing anything or this is a bug. I have been stuck on this for hours and any help would be appreciated!

-u vagrant -U vagrant <= makes no sense, if you login as vagrant you
don't need to sudo TO vagrant, you probalby want to leave -U vagrant
out and the default (sudo to root) should work.
