Running Ansible playbook from a file in Rundeck

I am trying to run Ansible playbook stored in my local drive. I am using wsl 2 which is where I have installed Ansible and Rundeck.

Path of ansible playbook

Playbook path: /home/hannan/wslNodeRedProjects/ansible/myplaybook1.yml

On providing the correct location of the playbook I get the following errors:

ERROR! the playbook: /home/hannan/wslNodeRedProjects/ansible/myplaybook1.yml could not be found

*Failed: AnsibleNonZero: ERROR: Ansible execution returned with non zero code. *

Error on running the job

I am not sure why I am getting an error even after specifying the correct location.

I wanted to know if I am missing anything or should I need to provide other options like Ansible binaries directory path as well.

This error might indicate that the user establishing the local SSH connection to execute the playbook (default: rundeck) doesn't have executable permissions to the full playbook path.

This could be resolved by either using a user with the right executable permissions, or by granting executable permissions to the specific user with ACL, like so:

$ setfacl -R -m user:rundeck:x /path/to/playbook/
  • setfacl - set file access control lists.
  • -R, --recursive - apply operations to all files and directories recursively.
  • -m, --modify - modify the ACL of a file or directory. ACL entries for this operation must include permissions.

See man setfacl for further reading.
