[chrisburkegg]

Environment (let me know if anything else is needed):

OS X 10.14.2
$ vagrant version
Installed Version: 2.2.3
Latest Version: 2.2.3
$ ansible --version
ansible 2.7.8

To reproduce:

1. clone the repository
2. follow instructions; in terminal window 1:
3. cd lte/gateway
4. vagrant up

Output:

[ ... truncated vagrant output ...]
==> magma: Running provisioner: ansible...
Vagrant has automatically selected the compatibility mode '2.0'
according to the Ansible version installed (2.7.8).

Alternatively, the compatibility mode can be specified in your Vagrantfile:

ERROR! the role 'gateway_dev' was not found in /Users/christopherburke/magma/lte/gateway/deploy/roles:/Users/christopherburke/roles:/Users/christopherburke/magma/lte/gateway/deploy

The error appears to have been in '/Users/christopherburke/magma/lte/gateway/deploy/magma_dev.yml': line 12, column 7, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.

The offending line appears to be:

  roles:
    - role: gateway_dev
      ^ here

Ansible failed to complete successfully. Any error output should be
visible above. Please fix these errors and try again.

Note:

$ ls deploy/roles
dev_common magma      magma_oai  magma_test trfserver

Do you have ANSIBLE_ROLES_PATH environment variable set by any chance?

magma/lte/gateway/ansible.cfg adds magma/orc8r/tools/ansible/roles as a roles directory, but looks like thats getting overridden.

Good find, unsetting the environment variable fixed the issue for me. Thank you!
