Can't disable Ansible's host key checking
Solution 1
You'll need to set it via the Vagrantfile
of the project. When the Vagrant Ansible provisioner makes the call to ansible-playbook
it always sets the value of the ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING
environment variable.
Ansible itself takes the value of the environment variable if present. Therefore Vagrant will override the value used in your ansible.cfg
.
Therefore you just need something like:
machine.vm.provision :ansible do |ansible|
ansible.host_key_checking = false
# etc.
end
Solution 2
Probably not your problem, but worth a shot: I was stalled on this, until I realized I added
host_key_checking = False
under a session that was not [defaults]
. Once I actually moved it to under [defaults]
, changed host keys did not stop anything anymore.

Slava Fomin II almost 2 years
I'm using Ansible 1.5.4 to provision my Vagrant 1.4.3 box on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
I'm getting the following error message in verbose mode:
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ @ WARNING: REMOTE HOST IDENTIFICATION HAS CHANGED! @ @@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
I can do:
export ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING=False
and I have following lines in my~/.ansible.cfg
:[defaults] host_key_checking = False
But it doesn't help.
What could be the problem? Thank you!
UPDATE #1
I'm calling it directly like this (without using
vagrant
command):ansible-playbook playbook.yml -i inventory.ini --user=vagrant --ask-pass -vvvv
The inventory is:
[default] localhost:2222

Slava Fomin II about 10 yearsThank you for your answer! I've forgot to mention that I'm running this playbook using
ansible-playbook
command without invokingVagrant
itself. I've updated my question (see UPD#1). By the way I also have this line in theVagrantfile
