Hi Adam comments inline.
( TL;DR: * good work on the troubleshooting! * I think you're right, this is likely an environment/path thing. * Ansible 1.4 is ancient, that probably isn't helping. * there's an executable parameter you can use to hardcode the gem command to run. ) On 9 February 2015 at 16:52, Adam Hamsik <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > I can see this behaviour with following gems > > github: haste > rubygems: ops_build > > opsci:~ $ sudo gem list > > *** LOCAL GEMS *** First question: are you sure this is the same gem binary Ansible is driving? sudo can sometimes do odd things with env. variables etc, so i'd 'sudo -i' and then check 'which gem' and check the environment. > TASK: [common-server | Install Haste client binary] > *************************** > <opsci.rsd.com> ESTABLISH CONNECTION FOR USER: rsd > <opsci.rsd.com> REMOTE_MODULE gem name=haste state=latest > <opsci.rsd.com> EXEC ssh -C -tt -q -o ControlPersist=15m -F > /Users/haad/.ansible/ssh_config -o > ControlPath="/Users/haad/.ansible/cp/ansible-ssh-%h-%p-%r" -o > StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o Port=22 -o > IdentityFile="/Users/haad/.ssh/id_rsa" -o KbdInteractiveAuthentication=no -o > PreferredAuthentications=gssapi-with-mic,gssapi-keyex,hostbased,publickey -o > PasswordAuthentication=no -o User=rsd -o ConnectTimeout=19 opsci.rsd.com > /bin/sh -c 'mkdir -p > $HOME/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1423500136.86-230822911136757 && chmod a+rx > $HOME/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1423500136.86-230822911136757 && echo > $HOME/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1423500136.86-230822911136757' > <opsci.rsd.com> PUT > /var/folders/yq/_h9bmb6x1qxb7p4_w5xhkgx80000gn/T/tmp1sQb3z TO > /home/rsd/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1423500136.86-230822911136757/gem > <opsci.rsd.com> EXEC ssh -C -tt -q -o ControlPersist=15m -F > /Users/haad/.ansible/ssh_config -o > ControlPath="/Users/haad/.ansible/cp/ansible-ssh-%h-%p-%r" -o > StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o Port=22 -o > IdentityFile="/Users/haad/.ssh/id_rsa" -o KbdInteractiveAuthentication=no -o > PreferredAuthentications=gssapi-with-mic,gssapi-keyex,hostbased,publickey -o > PasswordAuthentication=no -o User=rsd -o ConnectTimeout=19 opsci.rsd.com > /bin/sh -c 'sudo -k && sudo -H -S -p "[sudo via ansible, > key=bqhjegrwqcfakjiubogaofvswknlictj] password: " -u root /bin/sh -c > '"'"'echo SUDO-SUCCESS-bqhjegrwqcfakjiubogaofvswknlictj; LANG=C LC_CTYPE=C > /usr/bin/python > /home/rsd/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1423500136.86-230822911136757/gem; rm -rf > /home/rsd/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1423500136.86-230822911136757/ >/dev/null > 2>&1'"'"'' > ok: [opsci-server] => {"changed": false, "name": "haste", "state": "latest", > "version": "0.2.1"} > > On Tuesday, November 19, 2013 at 7:17:21 PM UTC+1, Adam Williams wrote: >> >> I am running Ansible using "brew install --HEAD ansible", which currently >> prints it's version as "ansible 1.4". >> >> Here is my task: >> >> - name: install ruby gem bundler >> gem: name=bundler state=present version=1.3.5 user_install=no >> sudo: true That looks ok - you can also set executable=... if you want to ensure you know which 'gem' binary to use. >> When I run, it states that there is no change - bundler appears to the gem >> module to be installed??, though it is not. >> >> I went further and tried the following: >> >> ansible utilities -v --sudo -i development -m gem -a 'name=bundler >> state=present version=1.3.5 user_install=no' >> >> 192.168.10.24 | success >> { >> >> "changed": false, >> >> "name": "bundler", >> >> "state": "present", >> >> "version": "1.3.5" >> >> } >> >> >> Seemingly the same behavior.

One last thing - you are going to be a lot better off not using 1.4, it's pretty old. A straight github checkout works great for me on OS X, so it might be worth avoiding homebrew. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
