Ansible can't git clone from enterprise git server

Question

Hi I have enterprise git server where I created a private test-repo and added a ssh-key on the deploy ssh key form. I defined a git role in my common roles which is having below yml definition.

--- - name: github enterprise private key copy: > src=id_rsa_ghe dest=/etc/id_rsa_ghe owner=root group=root mode=0600 - name: clone test-repo project git: repo: [email protected]:code/test-repo.git dest: /etc/test-repo accept_hostkey: true key_file: /etc/id_rsa_ghe 

in roles/common/git I defined files folder where I put my private key for git clone however I am still getting error as below

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "cmd": ["/usr/bin/git", "fetch", "--tags", "origin"], "failed": true, "msg": "Failed to download remote objects and refs: ERROR: Repository not found.\nfatal: Could not read from remote repository.\n\nPlease make sure you have the correct access rights\nand the repository exists.\n"}

Below are my system details. And I am running this playbook locally on one of my server.

$ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS Release: 14.04 Codename: trusty $ansible --version ansible 2.2.1.0 config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg configured module search path = Default w/o overrides 

Below is the actual error which I get repository not found.

Looks like your clone test-repo project task has an syntax error and that is why Ansible can't find the repository. Replace the : with / for the repo parameter like this:

- name: clone test-repo project git: repo: [email protected]/code/test-repo.git dest: /etc/test-repo accept_hostkey: true key_file: /etc/id_rsa_ghe 

You would use : to define a non standard port.
