[Fixed]-Media folder permission while deploying django app with Ansible

1👍

The Ansible file module needs the full octal number supplied to the mode parameter, rather than the shorthand 3 digit version we are used to using with the chmod command.

As mentioned on http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/file_module.html, “Leaving off the leading zero will likely have unexpected results.”.

Try:

file: dest={{ item }} mode=0755 owner={{ app_user }} group={{ app_group }} state=directory

Hope that helps.
