IP hostname fails to resolve in provisioner runs fine standalone. about terraform-provisioner-ansible HOT 2 CLOSED

Hi @xophere, thank you for the report. Looking at your configuration and the logs:

connection {
  host = "${aws_eip.city_lb_ip.*.public_ip}"
  user = "XXXXXX"
  type = "ssh"
  timeout = "5m"
}

Could not resolve hostname [54.149.150.46].

I think what is happening, you are passing an array of hosts to connection.host (judging by the square brackets in the log output). connection.host takes a single host as a string. normally, one would expect something like:

connection {
  host = "${aws_eip.city_lb_ip.0.public_ip}"
  user = "XXXXXX"
  type = "ssh"
  timeout = "5m"
}

In your case, a list of hosts would becomes literal [54.149.150.46] instead of 54.149.150.46. Obviously, [54.149.150.46] is not a valid host name, hence the error you are seeing.
