Unsible 1.9.4: Failed to block the application for exclusive operation

Question

I ran into a problem Failed to lock apt for exclusive operation: https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-apache/issues/50

I posted a lot of details on GitHub.

I googled a lot "Failed to block apt for exceptional operation." Complaints about complaints, but there is no simple answer. Any help?

Answer 1

I also get this error by creating a couple of new mailboxes. I connect as root, so I did not think it was necessary, but this:

become: yes

Now everything works as intended.

Answer 2

Running the following commands in the same sequence as below should solve this problem:

sudo rm -rf /var/lib/apt/lists/*
sudo apt-get clean
sudo apt-get update
