# Ansible: Vault Password File Not Found
## Error
```
[WARNING]: Error getting vault password file (default): The vault password file /Users/majorlinux/.ansible/vault_pass was not found
[ERROR]: The vault password file /Users/majorlinux/.ansible/vault_pass was not found
```
## Cause
Ansible is configured to look for a vault password file at `~/.ansible/vault_pass`, but the file does not exist. This is typically set in `ansible.cfg` via the `vault_password_file` directive.
## Solutions
### Option 1: Remove the vault config (if you're not using Vault)
Check your `ansible.cfg` for this line and remove it if Vault is not needed:
```ini
[defaults]
vault_password_file = ~/.ansible/vault_pass
```
### Option 2: Create the vault password file
```bash
echo 'your_vault_password' > ~/.ansible/vault_pass
chmod 600 ~/.ansible/vault_pass
```
> **Security note:** Keep permissions tight (`600`) so only your user can read the file. The actual vault password is stored in Bitwarden under the "Ansible Vault Password" entry.
### Option 3: Pass the password at runtime (no file needed)
```bash
ansible-playbook test.yml --ask-vault-pass
```
## Diagnosing the Source of the Config
To find which config file is setting `vault_password_file`, run:
```bash
ansible-config dump --only-changed
```
This shows all non-default config values and their source files. Config is loaded in this order of precedence:
1. `ANSIBLE_CONFIG` environment variable
2. `./ansible.cfg` (current directory)
3. `~/.ansible.cfg`
4. `/etc/ansible/ansible.cfg`
