Hi, could you provide a bit more information about the issue? What exactly happens when you try to import the roles? Do you get any kind of error? If so, is there any relevant information in the logs? Or do you just get a message that no new roles were detected?
Hi
I just get the message: “No ansible roles were found in Foreman. If you want to assign roles to your hosts, you have to import them first.”
Do the roles have to have specific permissions?
I’ve checked the logs but I can’t find anything relevant.
Can you show the permissions of files /etc/ansible/roles/* ?

It looks ok. Do you have log messages in /var/log/foreman/production.log ?
You should see (among others) those lines :

Does this help?
Should there be an import button on that page? Because there is none in my setup.
Yes there should be a button.
Are you logged as administrator ?
Go to Infrastructure → Smart Proxies. If your proxy does not have Ansible among features, try refreshing them .
I don’t have ansible there. any idea on how to get it there?
Found it! had to add --enable-foreman-proxy-plugin-ansible to the install.
Thanks very much for the info!
