S3 module for downloading files is not working in ansible - amazon-web-services

Question

This is the ansible code written for downloading files from S3 bucket "artefact-test".
- name: Download customization artifacts from S3
s3:
bucket: "artefact-test"
object: "cust/gitbranching.txt"
dest: "/home/ubuntu/"
mode: get
region: "{{ s3_region }}"
profile: "{{ s3_profile }}"
I have set the boto profile and aws profile too. I get different errors which i dont think are valid like -
failed: [127.0.0.1] => {"failed": true, "parsed": false}
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/dmittal/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1462436903.77-107775915578620/s3", line 2320, in <module>

if not boto_supports_profile_name():

msg: Target bucket cannot be found
failed: [127.0.0.1] => {"failed": true}
msg: Target key cannot be found
Whereas the bucket and key specified both exists on AWS.The same thing works if i use AWS-CLI commands to do the same.

There seems to have been a bug related to this. You might want to try adding the following import statement in the file ansible/module_utils/ec2.py -
import boto.ec2
Something like this - https://github.com/ansible/ansible/blob/9cf43ce17f20171b5740a6e0773f666cb47e2d5e/lib/ansible/module_utils/ec2.py#L31
