- PowerShell modules that use Convert-ToSID in Ansible.ModuleUtils.SID.psm1 like win_user_right now accept an actual SID as an input string. This means any local or domain accounts that are named like a SID need to be prefixed with the domain, hostname, or . to ensure it converts to that accounts SID https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/38502

|
|
|
|
Bugfixes
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
- template - Fix for encoding issues when a template path contains non-ascii characters and using the template path in ansible_managed (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/27262)
|
|
|
|
- copy - fixed copy to only follow symlinks for files in the non-recursive case
|
|
|
|
- file - fixed the default follow behaviour of file to be true
|
|
|
|
- copy module - The copy module was attempting to change the mode of files for remote_src=True even if mode was not set as a parameter. This failed on filesystems which do not have permission bits (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/40099)
|
|
|
|
- Fix an encoding issue when parsing the examples from a plugins' documentation
|
|
|
|
- file module - The file module allowed the user to specify src as a parameter when state was not link or hard. This is documented as only applying to state=link or state=hard but in previous Ansible, this could have an effect in rare cornercases. For instance, "ansible -m file -a 'state=directory path=/tmp src=/var/lib'" would create /tmp/lib. This has been disabled and a warning emitted (will change to an error in Ansible-2.10).
|
|
|
|
- file module - Fix error when running a task which assures a symlink to a nonexistent file exists for the second and subsequent times (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/39558)
|
|
|
|
- file module - Fix error when recursively assigning permissions and a symlink to a nonexistent file is present in the directory tree (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/39456)

|
|
|
- file module - Eliminate an error if we're asked to remove a file but something removes it while we are processing the request (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/39466)

|
|
|
- Various grafana_* modules - Port away from the deprecated b64encodestring function to the b64encode function instead. https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/38388
|
|
|
|
- import/include - Update TaskInclude _raw_params with the expanded/templated path to file allowing nested includes using host vars in file (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/39365)
|
|
|
|
- dynamic includes - Don't treat undefined vars for conditional includes as truthy (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/39377)

|
- import/include - Ensure role handlers have the proper parent, allowing for correct attribute inheritance (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/39426)
|
|
|
|
- include_role/import_role - Use the computed role name for include_role/import_role so to diffentiate between names computed from host vars (https://github.com/ansible/ansible/pull/39516)
