[ansible-project] Work around needed for possible bug.
Hi, I have a playbook, with a task that reads: # set up ssh access to bitbucket - name: setup access to bitbucket import_role: name: bitbucketSetup creates: /home/ian/.ssh/id_rsa.pub # so skipped if executed elsewhere This fails with the error "conflicting action statements: import_role, creates" I have tried "include_role" which also errors "conflicting action statements". Just for the record, the role does indeed create the file, and I do only want it run if the file does not exist. I think the error is a bug, but I am not familiar enough with Ansible, to be sure. The setup may have been run in a previous playbook, or from a role earlier in this playbook, or even on an earlier run of this playbook. In these cases it should not be run again. How can I do this, without using stat, register and testing the result, which is horribly slow.

Use it cautiously. Right. Probably it would be good to add that cautious usage here includes running *pgrep* first and see whether the selected processes are what you really want. This is the reason why *pgrep/pkill* come together. FWIW. See the playbook for testing asynchronous scripts and signals https://gist.github.com/vbotka/755c3c4fea3d7afb54406412325a3f12 -- Vladimir Botka -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
