Per requirements, I did installed all the required packages, however amazon.aws.s3_object is one of those things:

  • couldn't be resolved/found
  • was not found in configured module paths

step(s), I used to re-produce my issue:

% docker run -it debian:stable-slim bash

Quote from the documentation:

This module is part of the amazon.aws collection (version 5.4.0).

...

To install it, use: ansible-galaxy collection install amazon.aws

root@befa2662325b:/# ansible-galaxy collection install amazon.aws
root@befa2662325b:/# ansible localhost -m amazon.aws.s3_object
localhost | FAILED! => {
    "changed": false,
    "msg": "missing required arguments: bucket, mode"
}

Alternatively, instead of working with the horribly outdated versions of Ansible and related packages, install Ansible via pip.

root@2b8f31d78667:/# apt install python3 python3-pip
root@2b8f31d78667:/# python3 -m pip install ansible
root@2b8f31d78667:/# ansible --version
ansible [core 2.14.6]
root@2b8f31d78667:/#
root@2b8f31d78667:/# ansible-galaxy collection list |grep aws
amazon.aws                    5.5.0
root@2b8f31d78667:/# ansible localhost -m amazon.aws.s3_object
[WARNING]: No inventory was parsed, only implicit localhost is available
localhost | FAILED! => {
    "changed": false,

Context:

  • Your installed version is Ansible 2.10.8
shell> root@6140e6e2c06c:/# ansible --version
ansible 2.10.8
...
  • The collection amazon.aws should be installed in Ansible 2.10.8 by default. See the build
amazon.aws: >=1.2.0,<2.0.0
  • The module s3_object was added in the collection amazon.aws version 1.0.0. See the source
DOCUMENTATION = r"""
---
module: s3_object
version_added: 1.0.0
short_description: Manage objects in S3

root@6140e6e2c06c:/# ansible --version
ansible 2.10.8
  config file = None

Solution:

Make sure the collection is included in the COLLECTIONS_PATHS. For example,

shell> ansible-config dump | grep COLLECTIONS_PATHS
COLLECTIONS_PATHS(/scratch/tmp7/test-353/ansible.cfg) = ['/home/admin/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages']

shell> find /home/admin/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages -name s3_object.py
/home/admin/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/ansible_collections/amazon/aws/plugins/action/s3_object.py
/home/admin/.local/lib/python3.9/site-packages/ansible_collections/amazon/aws/plugins/modules/s3_object.py

Change the path depending on where you installed the collections.

Note:

It is possible to install more versions of Ansible collections simultaneously. It's up to you to configure the path to the version you want to use.

the collection is indeed shipped with the Debian Ansible package, but this module is not included.

Maybe because the shipped version of the collection is version `1.4.0` ...

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
