Hi, 
I want to make a simple check after deploying an application with Ansible.
The task looks like this:

- name: Wait for application to listen
      wait_for: host=localhost port={{ application_port }} state=started 
timeout=30
      tags:
        - check

I expect an HTTP server to listen on that port, and t check it myself I 
would use something like curl.

When I run it from my local machine, it works fine, but when it's run on 
the CI server, this last step breaks after the timeout.
I have also seen this thing wrapped in the "local_action" module, but since 
the above example works, I do not think that's the issue.
The only difference between CI run and me doing it locally is the 
remote_user, but I find it hard to image how that can possibly have 
anything to do with it., when only running the check.

There are probably many ways to solve the problem "Have Ansible exit with 
an error, if the deployment fails", though this one is probably the 
easiest, so any hint is appreciated.

The error I am getting:

failed: [162.13.11.115] => {"elapsed": 34, "failed": true}msg: Timeout when 
waiting for localhost:8000


However, as stated before ssh'ing onto the machine and executing "curl 
localhost:8000" works just fine.


Regards, 

Thomas
