Attempted another deployment on Lightsail. Failed with same error as Log No. 1 above.

Gah, these Ansible 12 stuff was such a mistake. I'll fix this tonight.

Thanks for the assist - Was working to spin something up manually, but Algo usually so easy to set up and tear down. Love the project. The number of different cloud providers and dependencies make this high effort to remain unbroken. Tried hacking away at the playbooks to try to get it running, but no success.
