Re: [ansible-project] template not looking in templates directory for included roles

[Daniel Watrous]

I think you're right that I read that wrong. However, I did find a way to
reference the file from another role that I think should work for me.

{{ role_path }}/../php/templates/phpsitevhost

Since I know the name of the role that will be installed, and that it will
be adjacent to other roles, I should be able to always use "{{ role_path
}}/../" to access the files from another role.

This way I can prevent duplicating these files.

Thanks for your help.

[ansible-project] Ansible 2.1.2 RC1 is ready for testing

[James Cammarata]

Hi all, we're happy to announce that RC1 for 2.1.2 is now available for
testing.

This release candidate fixes many bugs, including (but not limited to):

* Fixed a bug introduced by static includes in 2.1, which prevented
notifications from going to the "top level" handler name.
* Fixed a bug where a group_vars or host_vars directory in the current
working directory would be used (and would take precedence) over those in
the inventory and/or playbook directory.
* Fixed a bug which could occur when the result of an async task did not
parse as valid JSON.
* (re)-allowed the use of ansible_python_interpreter lines with more than
one argument.
* Fixed several bugs related to the creation of the implicit localhost in
inventory.
* Fixed a bug related to an unspecified number of retries when using until.
* Fixed a race-condition bug when creating temp directories before the
worker process is forked.

How do you get it?
--

The tar.gz of the release can be found here:

http://releases.ansible.com/ansible/ansible-2.1.2.0-0.1.rc1.tar.gz
SHA256: 877595c6ae0f6a4cbf91d368aeb1194d8df65cbb084033b62dd163c2a24080d7

You can also test against the git repository as follows:

$ git clone https://github.com/ansible/ansible.git
$ cd ansible
$ git checkout v2.1.2.0-0.1.rc1
$ git submodule update --init

You can then source our testing script:

$ . hacking/env-setup

or you can build your own .tar.gz (output will be
dist/ansible-2.1.2.0.tar.gz):

$ make sdist

If you discover any errors, or if you see any regressions from playbooks
which work on 1.9.x and prior, please open a Github issue and be sure to
mention you're testing against this release candidate.

Thanks!

[ansible-project] How to change/redefine variables in nested dictionary?

[Dmitry Owl]

I have dictionary:
  test:
a:
  name: 'somevalue'
  other: 'somevalue'
  another: 'somevalue'
b:
  name: 'somevalue'
  other: 'somevalue'
  another: 'somevalue'

How can I change value of *"name"* in each dictionary during play of 
playbook and that this has affected on all further reference to the *"test" 
*dictionary? I want to get something like this:

  test:
a:
  name: 'newvalue'
  other: 'somevalue'
  another: 'somevalue'
b:
  name: 'newvalue'
  other: 'somevalue'
  another: 'somevalue'

I have tried to use *"with_dict"*, *"debug"* and *"combine" *jinja filter 
but didn't get any result.
I will be grateful for any help! Thank you!

Re: [ansible-project] template not looking in templates directory for included roles

[Dick Davies]

Ok I think you're misreading the docs.

"Any copy, script, template or include tasks (in the role) can
reference files in roles/x/{files,templates,tasks}/ (dir depends on
task) without having to path them relatively or absolutely"

(in the role) above refers to role x. roles can't see each others bits n pieces.

The php role needs nginx to be setup,it also needs a vhost.

Just have it set the nginx role as a dependency (like you already
are), but put the vhost template in the php role
e.g.

roles/
├── nginx
│   ...rest of role skipped...
│   ├── defaults
│   │   └── main.yml  # <- php role can see these vars
│   └── handlers
│   └── main.yml  # <- php role can run these handlers
└── php
│   ...rest of role skipped...
├── meta
│   └── main.yml  # <- if there's a dependency set here
└── templates
└── foo.vhost.j2 # <- template lives here

Re: [ansible-project] template not looking in templates directory for included roles

[Daniel Watrous]

The documented feature is listed under behaviors:

"Any copy, script, template or include tasks (in the role) can reference
files in roles/x/{files,templates,tasks}/ (dir depends on task) without
having to path them relatively or absolutely"

Based on this I would expect a filename reference to look in
"roles/x/templates" until it found the template file.

I can duplicate the file for lower roles, but I would rather parameterize
it and have the stated functionality work to find it in the templates
folder of the other role.

FYI, I am seeing that on AWS as well. Very intermittent but happens every

In our case it's all Debian running against other Debian machines all

Re: [ansible-project] SSH connection issue

[Aaron Bernardino]

Thanks for the feedback.  I tried from my CentOS vagrant box and it worked. 
 Provisioning using Cygwin does work though when I am just using Vagrant on 
Cygwin to create and configure a VM locally.

[ansible-project] Re: ec2.ini pattern_exclude and instance_filters

Oops, just noting that I accidentally mistyped the instance_filter line in
the second error above (The filter '~Platform' is invalid").

[ansible-project] winrm Unable to connect to windows10 desktop

[Deep18]

 

Hi,

I am trying to use ansible to controla windows 10 desktop VM in my lab and 
cannot seem to get past the connection error.Appreciate your help here.


Here is my setup:

MacBook is the control host and trying to connect to a windows10 desktop 
VM. I went through and followed all instructions in the ansible doc to 
enable remotePowershell on windows VM, turned OFF firewall on the windows 
VM.The windows VM is not part of any domain.


My inventory file:

[windows]

10.203.189.4

[windows:vars]  #group variables and 
values as a string

  ansible_connection=winrm 

  ansible_user= voiceqa

  ansible_password = abcdef

  ansible_port=5986

  ansible_winrm_server_cert_validation= ignore


I get the following error:

Re: [ansible-project] How do you avoid running same roles multiple times when including playbooks?

[Jacek Sniecikowski]

So basically I will need to set facts for every major playbook once it 
succeeds and then check for it?
I thought Ansible was idempotent in this way by default

[ansible-project] ec2.ini pattern_exclude and instance_filters

[Guy Knights]

I'm trying to remove certain ec2 hosts from having ansible run on them by
using the instance_filters and/or pattern_exclude options in the ini file
for ec2.py, but it doesn't seem to be working. I tried using the following
syntax for instance_filters:

instance_filters = "tag:Environment=prod,!Platform=windows"

However when I run a playbook it gives me the following error:

The filter '!Platform' is invalid", while: getting EC2 instances
inventory/prod/ec2.py:3: Error parsing host definition ': No closing
quotation

I removed the double quotes and I get a similar error:

The filter '~Platform' is invalid", while: getting EC2 instances
inventory/prod/ec2.py:3: Error parsing host definition ': No closing
quotation

I also tried changing them to single quotes but once again got yet another
slightly different error:

The filter ''tag:Environment' is invalid", while: getting EC2 instances
inventory/prod/ec2.py:3: Error parsing host definition ': No closing
quotation

Meanwhile, I tried playing with pattern_exclude instead. I added the
following:

pattern_exclude = '*-ad'

When I run this, it still tries to excute the playbook on servers whose
names match the pattern 'example-ec2-ad'.

What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks,
Guy

Re: [ansible-project] template not looking in templates directory for included roles

[Dick Davies]

I'm not seeing the documented feature you're describing at the link
you posted, and to my knowledge
Anisble has never searching other roles templates/ for templates.

If I was tackling this problem, I'd have the php role contain the
templates it needs.
You already know the nginx role has been applied, so you know where to put them.

Handlers and vars from the nginx dependency are visible when you apply
the php role,
so you can find the right place to put your configs and bounce nginx
if you need to easily
enough.

[ansible-project] Re: group_vars behavior changed in 2.1?

[Allen Sanabria]

I ran into this issue as well. I decided to write an action plugin called 
include_vars_dir. This will sort the files in alphabetical order and 
include them. This also works in a role as well. I am in the process of 
writing a test suite, before making the PR. If you are interested in 
checking the code before the PR is made 
https://github.com/linuxdynasty/ld-ansible-plugins/blob/master/action_plugins/include_vars_dir.py

I know some of this functionality is possible with using fileglob and 
include_vars. I needed something that I can control the depth of the 
directory as well.

- name: include all yml files in group_vars/all and all nested directories
  include_vars_dir:
dir: 'group_vars/all'

- name: include all yml files in group_vars/services
  include_vars_dir:
dir: 'group_vars/services'
depth: 1

- name: include only bastion.yml files
  include_vars_dir:
dir: 'vars'
files_matching: 'bastion.yml'

- name: include only all yml files exception bastion.yml
  include_vars_dir:
dir: 'vars'
ignore_files: 'bastion.yml'



 that instead of using include_vars with fileglob.

[ansible-project] Re: Ansible docs help

[Donald Blodgett]

Yes, those (and other parameters at the same level on plays, like become, 
gather_facts, and run_once) are what I am looking for. It's unfortunate 
that they are not listed anywhere it would be very helpful, especially for 
people new to Ansible.

[ansible-project] Recording generated template configurations

[Josh Smift]

SO> Anybody know of a way to deploy a template to multiple servers, but
SO> have each configuration simultaneously centralized on another server? 

How about delegate_to?

  - hosts: myservers

tasks: 

  - name: put foo on myservers
template: 
  src: foo.txt.j2 
  dest: /etc/foo.txt 

  - name: put foo for myservers onto centralserver
template: 
  src: foo.txt.j2 
  dest: "/srv/myservers/{{ inventory_hostname }}" 
delegate_to: centralserver

That seems to work for me; it's not *simultaneous* simultaneous, but it's
in one playbook anyway. :^)

[ansible-project] localhost in multiple groups (e.g. all) as well as "ungrouped"

[David Resnick]

I've found a regression in Ansible 2.1.1.0 where group_vars are not being 
applied correctly to a host that is shown as part of those groups.

My playbook is for performing AWS operations.

My inventory file looks something like this:

[control_host]
localhost connection=local
[nonprod]
[eu-nonprod]
[eu-west-1]
[demo]
[eu-west-1:children]
control_host
[demo:children]
control_host
[nonprod:children]
eu-nonprod
demo
[eu-nonprod:children]
eu-west-1

When I run this with Ansible 2.1.1 my groups_vars are not picked up -- 
including values set in group_vars/all.yml. With 2.1.0 group_vars are set 
as expected.

I'm not sure this is connected, but I've noticed that localhost is shown as 
belonging to all expected groups when running with 2.1.0 -- and with 
Ansible 2.1.1 localhost is shown to belong to the "ungrouped" group as well.

TASK [debug] 
***
ok: [localhost] => {
"groups": {
"all": [
"localhost"
],
"control_host": [
"localhost"
],
"demo": [
"localhost"
],
"eu-nonprod": [
"localhost"
],
"eu-west-1": [
"localhost"
],
"nonprod": [
"localhost"
],
"ungrouped": [
"localhost"
]
}
}

Am I missing something here? Should I open an issue about this?

Thanks,
David

[ansible-project] Recording generated template configurations

[Soren Olegnowicz]

Anybody know of a way to deploy a template to multiple servers, but have 
each configuration simultaneously centralized on another server? I do not 
want the servers speaking with each other, so synchronize would not really 
be an option. I would also prefer not to use fetch, as having the different 
configurations live on the main workstation would become too clunky too 
quickly.

Re: [ansible-project] template not looking in templates directory for included roles

[Daniel Watrous]

It does have its own templates directory, but that directory doesn't have a
file of that name. I'm wondering how I can get the documented functionality
that would have ansible look in the other templates directories until it
finds that file.

Otherwise, is there some way to accomplish what I am trying to do?

[ansible-project] Unexpected evaluation of condition in 'when' statement

[Alfredo M]

Hi all,

I'm trying to figure out why the expression "false and (var is undefined)", 
when 'var' has the value of an undefined variable, returns true. Here it is 
an example:

- hosts: localhost
  vars:
  g: "{{ z }}"
  is_false_var: false
  tasks:

  - debug: "msg='this must not be shown'"
when: (is_false_var) and (b is undefined)
ignore_errors: yes

  - debug: "msg='this must not be shown'"
when:* (is_false_var) and (g is undefined)*
ignore_errors: yes

  - debug: "msg='this must not be shown'"
when: (is_false_var) and false
ignore_errors: yes

  - debug: "msg='this must not be shown'"
when: (is_false_var) and true
ignore_errors: yes

  - debug: "msg={{ is_false_var and g is undefined }}"
ignore_errors: yes

That returns:

PLAY [localhost] 
***

TASK [setup] 
***
ok: [localhost]

TASK [debug] 
***
skipping: [localhost]




*TASK [debug] 
***ok: 
[localhost] => { "msg": "this must not be shown"}*

TASK [debug] 
***
skipping: [localhost]

TASK [debug] 
***
skipping: [localhost]

TASK [debug] 
***
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "{{ z }}: 'z' is 
undefined"}
...ignoring

PLAY RECAP 
*
localhost : ok=3 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=0 

Any ideas or thoughts about the avobe?

Thanks!

Re: [ansible-project] stdout looks empty, but 'when' thinks it isn't?

It's not empty, it does contain a list.
So if you do this I think it should work

So that's a connection timeout.  Is there a firewall between your ansible

Can you traceroute to 10.10.32.29 from your ansible box?

You should not use {{ }} in when, they are implied.

Since they are in the variable updateD you can print out all of them 
like this.


- debug: var=updateD

[ansible-project] Re: win_unzip hanging on overwrite

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

I'd try and organise things so that there's no need to merge the contents 
of the directory (probably by removing the contents of the directory first 
using win_file state: absent.)

[ansible-project] Re: win_unzip hanging

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

Would it be possible to use win_file state: absent first?  I don't know 
what problem you are trying to solve but its a pattern I use, which I like 
as that way I know the contents of an unzipped folder only contains the 
things in my zip, thereby enforcing that my playbook remains in control of 
what is left on my managed hosts.

Hi,

Could you explain what you want to do ?
To not do things in ansible but simulate, there's --check command line
option

[ansible-project] playbook fails testing connection from loadbalancer (nginix) to 2 backend webhosts (apache2)

[James Lovato]

The test to the loadbalancer itself never fails, and serves the same 
content as the websites (although host and metadata are a bit different), 
and I can't for the life of me figure out the disconnect.
If someone can point me in the right direction it would be appreciated.

All hosts are ubuntu 16.04.01 LTS
hostnames:
loadbalancer - Ansible-nginx
webcluster - AnsibleWeb, AnsibleWeb2

All AWS EC2 instances



The loadbalancer lines in my status playbook:

- hosts: loadbalancer
  tasks:
- name: verify backend index response
  uri: url=http://{{item}} return_content=yes
  with_items: '{{groups.webcluster}}'
  register: app_index

- fail: msg="index failed to return content"
  when: "'Hello, from sunny {{item.item}}!' not in item.content"
  with_items: "{{app_index.results}}"


Output of the play before it stops:

[ansible-project] stdout looks empty, but 'when' thinks it isn't?

['Steve Kersley' via Ansible Project]

As an Ansible newcomer, I'm trying to write some scripts to standardize 
Cisco switch configuration.  Unfortunately since Cisco doesn't offer a way 
to clear existing configuration before setting (in this instance I'm 
wanting to erase and standardize syslog targets, which is mostly configured 
as one value, but on some switches may have never been set, or may have 
been pointed at one of three other hosts in addition to the normal), I 
decided the easiest way was to first fetch the current setting(s), then 
iterate through and erase them, then set the correct target.

This works fine, but it fails on a switch that has no current value set, so 
I used a 'when' clause to check if stdout from the collection task is 
empty.  However, this isn't working.  If I print via debug the value of 
stdout, it certainly looks empty so why isn't the when clause working?

Any help on what I'm doing wrong (or a better way to do it) appreciated? 
 For the moment I can kludge around it by setting a value before I delete 
all the values, so that I know it should always have something and not 
worry about it, but that's bad practice and I'd prefer to know what I'm 
doing wrong for next time!

[ansible-project] Perform a failed_when: on an async task based on a value from stdout

This is my task:

  - name: RUN SOME TASK LOCALLY
command: .sh
 chdir=/task_folder/
delegate_to: localhost
register: task_status
async: 3600
poll: 0

This is where I check on the task status and would like it to fail when the 
specified text is in stdout.

 - name: CHECK TASK PROGRESS
   async_status: jid={{ task_status.ansible_job_id }}
   register: poll_status
   until: poll_status.finished
   retries: 100
   failed_when: "'ERROR. TASK FAILED.' in poll_status.stdout"

When I run the above playbook I am faced with the following error from 
Ansible

TASK [CHECK TASK PROGRESS] 
* 
fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "The conditional 
check ''ERROR. TASK FAILED.' in poll_status.stdout' failed. The error was:

[ansible-project] Pre-requisite tasks

[Dan Nestor]

Hello everybody, this is my first post here.

I have a playbook that includes these tasks:

- name: Staging directory exists
  file:
path: "{{ staging_dir }}"
recurse: yes
state: directory


- name: "{{ java_package }} is present in staging directory"
  copy:
src: "{{ java_package }}"
dest: "{{ staging_dir }}/{{ java_package }}"


- name: "{{ java_package }} is installed"
  yum:
name: "{{ staging_dir }}/{{ java_package }}"
state: present

I would like to copy the file to the host only if needed, that is, the RPM 
in question is not already installed. Can I do this in Ansible?

Thanks!

Dan

Hey,

I want to make sure that any existing iptables rules will be gone after I

very similar, but I can't find anything related in ansible/iptables module. 
Any ideas how I could achieve that ?

Yes, but ansible_ssh_host is deprecated in version 2.x  so use 
ansible_host instead.

Re: [ansible-project] template not looking in templates directory for included roles

[Dick Davies]

Roles look in their own templates/ directory for templates. The nginx
role will be applied first due to the dependency, but it has its own
templates/ directory.

Re: [ansible-project] Ansible hostname alias not in setup

[Tomasz Klosinski]

Hello,

Is it possible to access {{ ansible_ssh_host }} variable from inventory in 
the above example? I need ip addresses to provision VMs before I run 
Ansible on them. 
Thanks in advance,

Tomasz Klosinski

Verify that you have |subprocess.py on your python2.7 installation...

You should also use ansible_python_interpreter in your inventory for
this server (http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/faq.html, How do I handle
python pathing not having a Python 2.X in /usr/bin/python on a remote
machine?)

Ansible expect Python to be at /usr/bin/python if it's not you need to 
set ansible_python_interpreter.
