Answer 1

In the last step change script: to shell:.

The script tasks "uploads" the script to the target host and executes the uploaded one, but it is uploaded into a temporary directory (see the ansible-tmp-XXXXXXX in the error output). The script (jmeter.sh) then tries to find jmeter in that directory but obviously it is not there. By using shell: instead it will just run the script from the proper place.
