Hi, Any ideas where I am going wrong here?
I have a web server task which uses shell to start apache no problem: - hosts: webservers remote_user: root become_user: test become: True tasks: - name: Task18 - Start webservers back up shell: ./apache/bin/apachectl start tags: - startweb I have made a similar task to try start node for which I pass in the same 'start' arguement - hosts: nodes remote_user: root become_user: test become: True tasks: - name: Start node back up shell: ./***/***/init.d/etc.d/control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh start tags: - startnode This task fails with : "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 127, "start": "2020-09-02 19:07:49.395993", "stderr": "sh: control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh: No such file or directory", This script definitely exists in this location and works if triggered manually: ./control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh start Starting NodeJS: 26182 NodeJS instance running I have tried a different approach but I still get the same No such file or directory tasks: - name: Change Directory command: cd /***/***/init.d/etc.d/ - command: "ls /***/***/init.d/etc.d/" register: dir_out - debug: var={{item}} with_items: dir_out.stdout_lines - name: start nodejs command: sh control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh start The output of the debug step above confirms the presence of the script as shown in the output below so i really don't understand why it says the "control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh" can't be found? : TASK Change Directory] *********************************************************************************************************************************************** changed: [hostname] changed: [h <http://vm019742.bskyb.com/>ostname] TASK [command] ********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************* changed: [ hostname ] changed: [hostname] TASK [debug] *********************************************************************************************************************************************************************************************** ok: [hostname] => (item=dir_out.stdout_lines) => { "changed": false, "dir_out.stdout_lines": [ "control.apache.sh", "control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh" ], "item": "dir_out.stdout_lines" } ok: [hostname] => (item=dir_out.stdout_lines) => { "changed": false, "dir_out.stdout_lines": [ "control.apache.sh", "control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh" ], "item": "dir_out.stdout_lines" } TASK start nodejs ***************************************************************************************************************************************** fatal: [hostname]: FAILED! => {"changed": true, "cmd": ["sh", " control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh", "start"], "delta": "0:00:00.007772", "end": "2020-09-02 19:07:49.098795", "msg": "non-zero return code", "rc": 127, "start": "2020-09-02 19:07:49.091023", "stderr": "sh: control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh: No such file or directory", "stderr_lines": ["sh: control.postcodesio.nodejs.sh: No such file or directory"], "stdout": "", "stdout_lines": []} Any ideas much appreciated.
