i'm using ansible 2.1.0 (devel 0c013f592a) last updated 2015/12/21 14:26:10 (GMT -700)

installed from source in ubuntu desktop.

here's my playbook task:

- name: create openstack network

become: no

os_network:

cloud: testing

name: mynetwork

here's my clouds.yml file (in same directory as playbook):

clouds:

testing:

auth:

auth_url: http://3.0.0.10:35357/v3

project_domain_id: default

user_domain_id: default

username: admin

password: password

project_name: admin

here's the error I get when i run the task:\

fatal: [3.0.0.10]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": true, "msg": "Traceback (most recent call last):\r\n File \"/home/stack/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1450816900.25-86035633817923/os_network\", line 2199, in <module>\r\n main()\r\n File \"/home/stack/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1450816900.25-86035633817923/os_network\", line 144, in main\r\n cloud = shade.openstack_cloud(**module.params)\r\n File \"/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/shade/__init__.py\", line 68, in openstack_cloud\r\n cloud_config = config.get_one_cloud(**kwargs)\r\n File \"/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/os_client_config/config.py\", line 621, in get_one_cloud\r\n config = self._get_base_cloud_config(cloud)\r\n File \"/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/os_client_config/config.py\", line 313, in _get_base_cloud_config\r\n name=name))\r\nos_client_config.exceptions.OpenStackConfigException: Named cloud testing requested that was not found.\r\n", "parsed": false}

any idea why it cannot find my cloud.yml file or my named cloud inside of that file?

Hi! It's may be too late, I would like to share my experience.

Where are you placed clouds.yml file ?
You should place clouds.yml file to specific area of remote host server( where openstack is moved ).

In my case,
Firstly I placed clouds.yml file to local, and get same error as you.
Next I place file to under /etc/openstack/ of remote server , It works :)
