Ansible won't let me connect through SSH

I'm trying to connect from one server to another. In fact I'm trying to connect to my host OS (CoreOS) from within a docker container. I have set up a RSA key and it works like a charm when using standard command line to connect to the remote host. It works as expected.

When I'm trying to run ansible customercare -m ping --user=core --connection=ssh --private-key=/home/jenkins/.ssh/id_rsa I'm met with this error

10.45.1.107 | FAILED => SSH encountered an unknown error during the connection. We recommend you re-run the command using -vvvv, which will enable SSH debugging output to help diagnose the issue

And the verbose option look like this:

<10.45.1.107> ESTABLISH CONNECTION FOR USER: core
<10.45.1.107> REMOTE_MODULE ping
<10.45.1.107> EXEC ['ssh', '-C', '-tt', '-vvv', '-o', 'ControlMaster=auto', '-o', 'ControlPersist=60s', '-o', 'ControlPath=/root/.ansible/cp/    ansible-ssh-%h-%p-%r', '-o', 'Port=22', '-o', 'IdentityFile=/home/jenkins/.ssh/id_rsa', '-o', 'KbdInteractiveAuthentication=no', '-o',     'PreferredAuthentications=gssapi-with-mic,gssapi-keyex,hostbased,publickey', '-o', 'PasswordAuthentication=no', '-o', 'User=core', '-o',     'ConnectTimeout=10', '10.45.1.107', "/bin/sh -c 'mkdir -p $HOME/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1437988628.37-213828375275223 && chmod a+rx $HOME/.    ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1437988628.37-213828375275223 && echo $HOME/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1437988628.37-213828375275223'"]

is that ansible command run from a docker container? – Nigeria
yes. I run the ansible command from inside my docker container. – Beckon
I have no problems connecting to the host OS from inside the container using ssh – Beckon
could you also show the log of a successful ssh connexion (using -vvvv) so we can compare the case that works with the one that fails? – Nigeria
after a lot of trail and error, it seems to be the -o ControlPath=/home/jenkins/.ansible/cp/ansible-ssh-%h-%p-%r option that is causing the problem. Without this option I can connect using the same command that ansible is using. – Beckon
you might also have the issue described at github.com/coreos/bugs/issues/376 regarding ControlPersist. Try with accelerate: false in your Ansible playbook. Once you get it sorted out, please answer your own question so it helps others – Nigeria

I had the same problem with ansible running in a docker container on a coreOS host. With the help of this thread, i could follow it up to the -O ControlPath option. Switching off acceleration didn't help for me though. Changing the ssh_args= line to empty string did the trick for me.

I found here that one of the reasons why ssh pipelining fails in docker is a bug when using overlay storage driver. Then a quick fix is to change directory of control path. In /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg add

[ssh_connection] control_path_dir=/dev/shm/ansible_control_path

Turning off the accelerate option did the trick. So in /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg I added accelerate: false and commented out the other accelerate options.

Seems to work. Thanks a lot Thomasleveil
