Package: ansible-mitogen
Severity: important
Version: 0.3.19-1
After enabling mitogen by (in ansible 11.1.0+dfsg-1, python 3.12.8):
strategy = mitogen_linear
The ansible fails after some hundreds of tasks (sum on multiple
hosts) with error (wrapped):
[WARNING]: error in 'jsonfile' cache plugin while trying to write to \
'/tmp/ansifacts/tmp73ogyuui' : b"[Errno 24] Too many open files: \
'/tmp/ansifacts/tmp73ogyuui'"
On next run i got:
[WARNING]: error in 'jsonfile' cache plugin while trying to read
/tmp/ansifacts/myhost : \
b'Expecting value: line 1 column 1 (char 0)'. Most likely a corrupt
file, \
so erasing and failing.
ERROR! The cache file /tmp/ansifacts/myhost was corrupt, or did not \
otherwise contain valid data. It has been removed, so you can \
re-run your command now.
+ running only one hosts allows all its tasks to finish, with mitogen
and fact_caching enabled
+ disabling fact_caching allows all hosts to finish with mitogen
+ disabling mitogen strategy allows all hosts to finish with
fact_caching enabled
Thus IMO, it seems that mitogen (or ansible or in between?) doesn't
close resources properly...
