[ansible-project] Re: Ansible windows modules

[Quang Truong]

Jon,

I have tried with win_package, as .NET framework 4.5 can not be uninstalled 
so I just grab a fake product_id (not sure for the other but for me, I'm 
using ansible 1.9.3 and product_id param should be *productid* without 
dash) and the results are the same as using raw command. If I use the 
offline package then receive error 16389 and use the web package then the 
installation runs in middle then stop with error 5. Still no luck so far.

I will try to upgrade to 2.0 then use win_acl to overcome the error 5 or 
win_webpicmd. 


Stavros,

I can run the installation without ansible for offline package (copy this 
package into the remote machine):
- Use powershell to call on the remote machine
- Use paexec and call the exe from remote

Thank you for your update.

Re: [ansible-project] authorized_key module not working

[Brian Coca]

It does not need a key but it DOES need a way to login, normally
user/password if keys are not available.

The other option is a super user that already has access can copy the keys
for the specific users. Some cloud APIs allow for pushing a key through
alternate methods, this module does not know about that (look at cloud
specific modules for that).

Re: [ansible-project] authorized_key module not working

[chrono]

I've been looking at the - output and it doesn't really help.

I guess I should ask this question.. Does this module work for copying over 
the initial key?  Or does it only work if there is already an ssh-key set 
up for ansible to use?

[ansible-project] Re: synchronize sudo: effective uid is not 0, is /usr/bin/sudo on a file system with the 'nosuid' option set or an NFS file system without root privileges?

[Gary Morse]

for anyone finding this, here's how i solved it. 

The issue is that the synchronize task tries to escalate to root on the 
tower machine, not on the target host. Since awx user doesnt have sudo 
permissions, it fails. 

to fix this, set sudo to "no" on the task and specify the rsync_path as 
"sudo rsync". This will ensure it doesnt sudo on the tower machine. 

- name: copy source to host directory
  synchronize: src=../../../src/ dest=/var/www/aaa-newsletter-builder 
times=no perms=no group=no rsync_path="sudo rsync"
  sudo: no

[ansible-project] Use ec2_remote_facts in another playbook

[Colin Byrne]

So the ec2_remote_facts has been great at getting the facts, but because it 
has to run against localhost, I have to run it as a separate play and can't 
use the registered information in a play run against other hosts. How can I 
transfer that registered variable to the new play/different hosts? The 
module seems fairly useless if you can't access that information anywhere 
other than localhost... But I suspect I have overlooked a way to do this.

---
- name: find running instances
  hosts: localhost
  gather_facts: no
  tasks:
- ec2_remote_facts:
region: "{{ environment_settings['production'].region }}"
filters:
  "tag:Environment": production
  register: production_server_facts
- debug: var=production_server_facts

- name: configure bastion servers
  hosts: production_bastion_servers
  become: yes
  become_method: sudo
  roles:
- hostname
- common
- ufw
#- sudoers
- users_and_groups
- hosts_file
- ssh

Thanks for any help, it is greatly appreciated!

Re: [ansible-project] Re: using register stdout_lines in with_items loop

[Matt Martz]

The "problem" is in how ansible registers results when using with_items.
It nests all of the results inside of a `results` key

Your second task could have been written to use:

- name: use shell to print list of file paths
  shell: "echo {{ item }}"
  with_items: "{{ files.results|map(attribute='stdout_lines')|list }}"

That would do it for you.  That pulls the `stdout_lines` attribute out into
a list of `stdout_lines`, then with_items natively handles the flattening,
allowing you to loop over each individual item in the `ls` output.

There is some documentation about using register with a loop, which you can
find at
http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/playbooks_loops.html#using-register-with-a-loop

question, and pose another one.

The documentation I cited for iterating the results of a program execution 
didn't involve the use of with_items in the original program execution. 
Having multiple results in a register variable doesn't seem to play nice 
with 'with_items'. 

I decided to work around the issue by having multiple tasks to gather the 
file names and iterate over each result in the replace module.

As a corollary to that, when using with_items and setting a failed_when 
condition, you can't seem to use the 'rc' property of the register variable 
in a task because the rc code only exists if the task fails. I'm thinking 
there must be a way to say fail_when: the register.rc exists, but haven't 
figured that part out yet.

[ansible-project] authorized_key module not working

[chrono]

Hello,

I wrote a playbook that checks out brand new servers that are built for my 
team.  To make things truly one-and-done, I thought it would be clever to 
include a play that copies the ssh public key from our ansible controller 
to the freshly built remote hosts.

I tried using the authorized_key module, but it doesn't seem to work..

Here is the play:

---
- name: Checkout new build
  hosts: all
  remote_user: blah
  tasks:
  - name: copy ssh key to remote host
authorized_key:
  user: blah
  key: "{{ lookup('file', '/home/blah/.ssh/id_rsa.pub') }}"


Here is the error I get:

TASK [setup] 
***
fatal: [hostname redacted]: UNREACHABLE! => {"changed": false, "msg": 
"ERROR! SSH encountered an unknown error during the connection. We 
recommend you re-run the command using -, which will enable SSH 
debugging output to help diagnose the issue", "unreachable": true}

Here is the command I am running:

ansible-playbook -i /home/blah/ansible/inventory/newBuilds.hosts 
/home/blah/ansible/playbooks/linuxCheckout/linuxCheckout.yml --ask-pass


Am I doing something wrong?

Best regards,

-C

[ansible-project] synchronize sudo: effective uid is not 0, is /usr/bin/sudo on a file system with the 'nosuid' option set or an NFS file system without root privileges?

[Gary Morse]

after upgrading to ansible 2.0 i am getting an error when trying to 
synchronize a directory to a remote server. Ansible version: 2.0.0.2

The entire playbook runs with sudo:yes, but the error only happens on the 
synchronize module. does anyone have have an idea or places to look to 
resolve my issue?

I switched from synchronize to copy and everything works, but obviously 
very slow.

[ansible-project] Re: Ansible windows modules

[Stavros]

The NDP452-KB2901907-x86-x64-AllOS-ENU.exe package contains the framework 
for various Windows versions. 
Have you tried to install it from the cli? E.g. start powershell as admin 
and try to install it?

In my case, I wrote a playbook in order to install it on a W2012R2 using 
ansible. Here an overview of the steps:
- copy this exe file to the remote host
- extract it
- in case of W2012R2 you will need the x64-Windows8.1-KB2934520-x64.msu, 
which you can install as next step
- finally the remote host has to be rebooted

I have to delete. So at that point, rather than using credential "cache",

This wouldn't be a bug but it might be a feature.  I'm not sure if we'd
want to do all the credential cache stuff inside of the git module or might
like to split that out into a separate module.

If the password can be given to git on stdin in your case, that does seem
like a way to add it to the current git module.  A pr for that would be
welcome.

[ansible-project] Re: Windows File Difference

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

At the moment I don't think there's anything in the windows modules that 
will help with this.  If anyone knows better please say but I think today 
--check and --diff aren't implemented for windows modules.

However, it might be possible to make use of the --check and --diff 
playbook command line arguments if you first fetch the files that you care 
about back to the controller and then use copy tasks (which won't actually 
copy in --check mode).

There's a thread here describing this

https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/ansible-project/6xkSE1nxIOU

That said, as you've pointed out comparing files in powershell is pretty 
straightforward so there's no reason why win_copy couldn't be changed to 
implement --check and --diff modes.

Hope this helps,

Jon

[ansible-project] Re: Ansible windows modules

['J Hawkesworth' via Ansible Project]

I would recommend trying the win_package module which can take properties 
and, if you capture the product_id you can use that in your playbook to 
make sure it only attempts installation once.

Hope this helps,

Please report back if this works for you so others can learn from your 
experience.

Many thanks

Jon

[ansible-project] Windows File Difference

[Mark Matthews]

Hi

I am trying to find an way Ansible can not only alert me of a change in a 
file but exactly what was changed in that file.

I am currently using win_stat play bookk to check the host file of a server 
and let me know if anything has changed. This works great, cut it only 
tells me if something has changed, it doesn;t tell me what has changed in 
the file.

---
- name: Check Host file
  hosts: all
  tasks:
 - name: stat the hosts file
   win_stat:
 path: C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts
   register: hosts_fileinfo
 - name: show hosts file stats for debugging purposes
   debug:
 var: hosts_fileinfo
 - name: Fail if Host File Missing
   fail:
 msg: "WEB.CONFIG file is missing"
   when: hosts_fileinfo.stat.exists != true
 - name: Fail if Host File Modified
   fail:
 msg: "HOSTS file has been modified"
   when: hosts_fileinfo.stat.checksum != 
""


I am looking for something that the following Powershell script does.
As you can see it has picked up that there is a difference between the two 
files and it then shows me where the difference is.


PS H:\> *Compare-Object -ReferenceObject (Get-Content 
C:\Temp\applicationHost.config) -DifferenceObject (Get-Content 
 C:\Temp\applicationHost_2.config)*

InputObject

--> works ok

I have had multiple syntax errors in my "code" but by some reason had more 
problems with 2.0.0.2 and 22th Feb 2016 git version seems to work better 
for me.

Found out that one error that I had was one space character indentation 
before the block and previous block was without the indentation so that 
caused one error. However; there were multiple other small syntax errors.

[ansible-project] Re: win_package product_id

[Trond Hindenes]

Is this a package which is publicly available? I'd like to have a closer 
look.

[ansible-project] Re: Ansible managing Windows hosts with non admin user

[Trond Hindenes]

Interesting. My guess would be that this works, as Ansible doesn't do 
anything outside the logged-on user's profile (until you start pushing 
tasks that require admin access, of course). What is the exact error you're 
getting? Can you use the "raw" module to do something simple like list the 
contents of your profile or something? I'd really like to see the full 
verbose log from your console aswell.
