I'm trying to run this command:

ansible-playbook openshift-ansible/playbooks/byo/config.yml

and I'm getting this error:

ERROR: fail is not a legal parameter in an Ansible task or handler

How do I get rid of it?

This has been happening to a lot of people, it's a version bug. Upgrade your ansible version from 1.5.4 to 2.3.0

To upgrade your version, use the following commands:

$ sudo apt-get install software-properties-common
$ sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ansible/ansible
$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install ansible
