Re: [ansible-project] Ansible process email

[Brian Coca]

I used to have Ansible triggered from a procmail file, so not really
reading, but procmail reading after MDA and calling Ansible.

Re: [ansible-project] printing readable error message while in playbook debug mode

[Tim Black]

My issue isn't about whats wrong with my code, its a question about why
ansible debugger wont print the newlines in a python string.

Re: [ansible-project] In a loop everything executes at the same time?

[Brian Coca]

No, in a loop everything executes sequentially, but EACH host executes
their own version of the task AND the loop in parallel.

debug will give you misleading results as it is a 'local' process and
probably finishes before other forks can start, once you intorduce the
delay of remote tranfer+execution you start seeing the real and
correct behaviour.

You might want to put the task in a play with 'serial' to handle the
'global limit' correctly.

[ansible-project] remove previously used remote_user (possibly ControlMaster, ControlPersist problem)

['Davide' via Ansible Project]

Hi all,

to setup raspberry pis I would like to use the following palybooks (the 
actual
yaml is at the end).

  1. with remote_user=defaultuser, become and add newuser
  2. with remote_user=newuser, become and delete defaultuser

If I play this with some docker container as target it works but if the 
target
is a raspberry pi 3 (running archlinux or raspbian) I get:

TASK [remove default user] 
*
fatal: [192.168.1.129]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "userdel: 
user defaultuser is currently used by process 615\n", "name": 
"defaultuser", "rc": 8}

This seems to happen because when the second playbook runs there is still a
defaultuser ssh process running from the first playbook.

Looking into it I found out about `-o ControlMaster=auto -o
ControlPersist=60s`. And if I `export ANSIBLE_SSH_ARGS='-o 
ControlMaster=no'`
before `ansible-playbook` it works also on the raspberry pi.

So my questions are the following.
Why does this affect the rasperry pi but not some docker containers? With 
the
default `ControlPersist=60s` it seems that it should also fail on the docker
container.

And is it possible to set `ControlMaster=no` for a specific playbook?

Thanks
Davide

[ansible-project] Failure on only one server running ansible playbook for key/user management

[Joe G]

I'll preface this by saying I'm novice to ansible and certainly not a linux 
expert so I might need extra details if you ask me to do anything, so 
please be specific with instructions. This has been working flawlessly in 
the past. I believe last week apt-get update and upgrade were run on the 
affected jss-01 server, this is the only change I can think of that could 
have caused this.  There were no issues on the jss-02 server which is a 
similarly built system.  We are attempting to push a new user key to our 
linux boxes and it fails only on one system as seen in the following.  The 
playbook continues on and completes on all the servers but the failed one.
  
[ansible@cm-01 ~]$ ansible-playbook 
/home/ansible/ansible-manage-ssh-keys.yml
[WARNING]: log file at /var/log/ansible.log is not writeable and we cannot 
create it, aborting

After combing around the settings on Ansible, I couldn't find any thing to 
try so I began looking at the target server. I found the following in 
auth.log

Feb  5 10:45:32 jss-01 sshd[24893]: Accepted publickey for ansible from 
10.8.5.5 port 53490 ssh2: RSA

/dev/null 2>&1
Feb  5 10:46:35 jss-01 sshd[25013]: Received disconnect from 10.8.5.51: 11: 
disconnected by user

So I ran the following on jss-01: usermod -aG sudo ansible

Then tailed the authlog while running the playbook again and now I'm 
getting:

Feb  7 15:49:01 jss-01 sshd[2805]: Accepted publickey for ansible from 
10.8.5.5 port 51642 ssh2: RSA 
e4:cc:13:42:b8:4b:1e:74:2b:68:3f:3a:9f:ad:36:f5
Feb  7 15:49:01 -jss-01 sshd[2805]: pam_unix(sshd:session): session opened

Feb  7 15:49:02 it-jss-01 sudo:  ansible : a password is required ;

-rf "/home/ansible/.ansible/ansible-tmp-1518047386.27-104994896662402/" > 
/dev/null 2>&1

I'm not sure where to go from here.  There shouldn't be any password 
required from my understanding. I probably shouldn't have even added the 
ansible user to the sudoers, since that's not how it's configured 
elsewhere.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thanks!

[ansible-project] In a loop everything executes at the same time?

[Guillem Sola]

I want to limit the number of parllel executions for a certain task inside 
a playbook (I have some constrains with downloading artifacts)

In that way the rest of tasks wil execute in all hosts at the same time but 
when the download task executes it will be limited to batches of N.

For this I'm creating a sequence with the # of iterations needed. If I do 
this it seems to work quite well

- debug:
msg: "Sequence {{ item }} with modulus {{ (( 
ansible_play_batch.index(inventory_hostname) % (( play_hosts | length ) / 2 
)) | round) }}"
with_sequence: start=0 end={{ (( play_hosts | length ) / 2 ) | round (0, 
'floor') | int }}
loop_control:
pause: 5
when: "(( ansible_play_batch.index(inventory_hostname) % (( play_hosts | 
length ) / 2 )) | round) == (item | int)"

Output

But if I execute something in the remote server (in this case just a sleep 
or a download) it seems that at the end everything is executed in parallel. 
See output generated times for each task, there should be some timespan 
seconds between loop iterations

So this is a strong indication that you have some errors in your code, so you 
need to show us the code in the file to figure it out.

[ansible-project] printing readable error message while in playbook debug mode

[Tim Black]

I get this error when I run my playbook (with debug strategy enabled):

TASK [Add authorized keys for developer user] 
**
task path: /home/pi/Source/ansible/playbooks/post-preseeded-debian-install.
yml:27

}

It breaks into debug prompt, but when I print the error message there, it 
won't do it pythonically, or even readable:

(debug) p result['msg']
u'The task includes an option with an undefined variable. The error was:

However, I can copy/paste the entire unicode string def, paste and print in 
a separate python interactive session variable, and it looks correct:

The offending line appears to be:

We could be wrong, but this one looks like it might be an issue with
missing quotes.  Always quote template expression brackets when they

Should be written as:

  - "{{ foo }}"


exception type:

How do I do same in the ansible debug prompt? Any other ideas on how to 
print this output in a READABLE fashion? Thanks.

No the pipe "|" after the shell command will execute the commands as they 
are listed, I've done it a million times. I will try your suggestion though.

[ansible-project] Ansible process email

[timothy.n.mcgibbon via Ansible Project]

Has anyone have done email reading using Ansible.
I am working on a project that is sending out email with a link to the task 
that the Ansible Tower would schedule a job to run.  The email could be the 
trigger or the Ansible process could check its email queue at an interval 
or any other process could be used to get the email read.  At this time 
reading the email would be the simplest way, as it would not require any 
change in the process we are currently using.

Re: [ansible-project] How to log what a perl script does,called from an Ansible shell module?

[Matt Martz]

It is likely because you need to add a `;` after your `cd`.  Otherwise I'm
guessing it's being interpreted wrong.

I'd expect `install_rc` to show something though, likely indicating what
the problem is.

Also, instead of using `cd`, look at using `chdir` instead:

shell: /usr/local/perl ./install.pl --no-prompt
args:
chdir: /tmp/git-sync

[ansible-project] How to log what a perl script does,called from an Ansible shell module?

[ZillaYT]

I'm trying to automate installation of gitsyncd and gitmirrord applications 
via download of the git-syncing.git repository, which installs a 
/tmp/git-sync/install.pl PERL script. I then run the following:

- name: Install git-sync services
  shell: |
 cd /tmp/git-sync
 /usr/local/perl ./install.pl --no-prompt
  environment:
 ENV_VAR1: env_value1
 ENV_VAR2: env_value2
  register: install_rc
- debug: var=install_rc

install_rc shows nothing. Using -vv option to run my playbook shows nothing 
either.

I expect the gitsyncd and gitmirrord services to be installed, but they're 
not so I'm trying to debug why. I can run the Perl script manually and it 
works.

Any ideas?

The init system on the host is reporting OK(return code 0) so Ansible says 
everything is OK.
If that's not correct then you need to fix the init file/configuration.

[ansible-project] Ansible reporting wrong service status

[Sidh]

Ansible - 2.4

With below snippet, service failed to start at remote host but ansible 
reports that lighttpd service has been restarted and ok. 
 


- name: lighttpd config file
  template:
src: lighttpd.conf.j2
dest: /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf
owner: root
group: root
mode: 0644
  notify: Restart lighttpd

 handlers:
- name: Restart lighttpd
  become: true
  service: name=lighttpd state=restarted




Note: It's happening with lighttpd only.

Re: [ansible-project] How to loop over result and retry in the same task?

[Eric Chong]

But I want to retry the first task until expected result.  I don't see a 
way for Ansible to retry a bock of tasks.

[ansible-project] Ansible vmware_guest creates vmware vm, but hostname does not changes. Also creates a additional junk folder

[Ajay Sharma]

HI Everyone. this Ansible yaml script creates vmware vm from previous

[ansible-project] How Ansible Works?

[lucie lina]

There are many similar automation tools available like Puppet, Capistrano, 
Chef, Salt, Space Walk etc, but Ansible 
 categorize into two types of 
server: controlling machines and nodes.
The controlling machine, where Ansible is installed and Nodes are managed 
by this controlling machine over SSH. The location of nodes are specified 
by controlling machine through its inventory.
The controlling machine (Ansible) deploys modules to nodes using SSH 
protocol and these modules are stored temporarily on remote nodes and 
communicate with the Ansible machine through a JSON connection over the 
standard output.

Ansible is agent-less, that means no need of any agent installation on 
remote nodes, so it means there are no any background daemons or programs 
are executing for Ansible, when it’s not managing any nodes.

Ansible can handle 100’s of nodes from a single system over SSH connection 
and the entire operation can be handled and executed by one single command 
‘ansible’. But, in some cases, where you required to execute multiple 
commands for a deployment, here we can build playbooks.
Playbooks are bunch of commands which can perform multiple tasks and each 
playbooks are in YAML file format.

[ansible-project] Unable to use specified private key when connecting as a different user

[0lai . m . mariano]

Scenario - I am logged in to my Ansible server as “0lai” but would like to run 
my testPlay.yml as a different user (“ansible”) so I used the —user option. 
However, I don’t know user ansible’s password and would like to make it a 
passwordless run. I used thee —key-file option and provided the private key 
file of user ansible. This fails because user 0lai does not have read 
permission on user ansible’s private key. When i tried to give group read 
permission to ansible, it worked as expected. However, the private key 
shouldn’t be readable to anyone but the owner right?

Is there any way I can, as “0lai”, use “ansible” to connect to my managed nodes 
passwordlessly?
