@Kollerb04 Can you confirm the following:

1. /usr/local exists
2. /usr/local is not a link
3. The admin group exists on the system

Based on your StackOverflow post I believe the exception is throw here on line 1256

[Kollerb04]

1.yes
2.using ls -l appears that its not a link
3.yes

@Kollerb04
Lets try doing this manually. Let's change uid and gid of the directory without the help of Ansible.

I want to see if this is an Ansible related issue or system level issue. Also let's get the verbose output. Use -vvvv flag

@Kollerb04 I see that looks like permissions on the machines. As mentioned by @mababio let's try to reproduce this manually see if that's Ansible or permissions in the host machine. We can update this role accordingly.
