Foreman 2.1 - ansible plugin - ansible uses root for ssh (second try *sigh*)

Support
#1

Hello Dear Foreman Community,
I have a Problem with the Ansible-Plugin as it uses the wrong user “root” to connect to the host.

The remote-execution on the same host works now, It uses the correct user “adu” to connect via ssh.
See my other Thread for more details here: Foreman 2.1 - package install with ansible on our own - remote-execution dynflow-world not initialized
(yes i will post an update there after this post!)

As you can see in the dynflow logs below, variables “ansible_user: adu” are there but are not picked up…

Is this something I have configured wrong with ansible-plugin or Ansible?

It is very difficult to get information on what configuration is possible…

Thank you very much for any input here!

Problem:
Ansible job “Run Ansible role” fails because it cannot connect to the host with “root@hostname”

  1:
Error initializing command: Net::SSH::AuthenticationFailed - Authentication failed for user root@clyde-requa.REDACTED.example.com
   2:
Exit status: EXCEPTION

Expected outcome:
Ansible job connects successfull with the correct user and job suceeds.

I have found some resources to this toppic. They are not providing any solution (yet) but i want to share these:

#3

Hi,
the exception you’re getting comes from ruby code, that means it is not running the job as ansible, but as a shell script. you’re most likely missing the ansbile core package.

Once it actually uses ansible, I’m failing to reproduce

Hello aruzicka,
Is it even possible to install the foreman-proxy with ansible feature on the same host with foreman?

When I try to install the missing ruby-foreman-ansible-core package i get the following error.

It is definitely possible, but slightly wonky on deb based systems. The issue is that two packages provide the same file (which is actually really the same file in both packages), so if you can force the installation it should be good to go. I’m not a deb person so I can’t really give you the exact command to run.

#6

Hello aruzicka,
ok when writing my last post I was not aware that this is just a packaging problem.
I Installed the ruby-foreman-ansible-core packages now with:

apt-get install -o Dpkg::Options::="--force-overwrite" install ruby-foreman-ansible-core

And I installed ansible-runner as well, as I know the installer would install it.

The error is changing now to:

 1:

This looks like as the yaml file gets still interpreted by bash now.

I think I am missing some configuration but i could not find it documented anywhere…

Do you have an Idea what could be missing?

Thank you very much!
with kind regards, fgoebel

You probably have to tell the smart proxy to load it, just installing the package doesn’t seem to be enough.

echo "gem 'foreman_ansible_core', '3.0.1'" > /usr/share/foreman-proxy/bundler.d/ansible-core.rb
#8

Ok, when I add this to the gemfile, it seems i am running in an bug with the 3.0.1 version of foreman_ansible_core, as described here

But it seems the 3.0.1 is the latest deb-package version available: http://deb.theforeman.org/pool/bionic/2.1/r/ruby-foreman-ansible-core/

When will these packages be updated?

Thank you very much!

#9

Looks like that version bump somehow fell through the cracks. I opened a PR to bring version 3.0.3 to deb nightly repos, once that gets in, I’ll make cherrypicks to get it into release repos. I expect it could land there in a few days

Hello aruzicka,
are there some news on this topic?
Thank you very much!

#11

It was merged into packaging some time ago, it should be available in 2.0 and 2.1 repos already

#12

unfortunately there is just

ruby-foreman-ansible-core_3.0.1-1_all.deb	2019-09-10 08:16	8.0K

available at all of these: (the version is the same, the date varies)

I’m in the exact same case and having the same error.

I tried extracting files from https://yum.theforeman.org/plugins/2.1/el8/x86_64/rubygem-foreman_ansible_core-3.0.3-1.fm2_1.el8.noarch.rpm (& replacing files installed by the latest deb version by the files contained in this RPM) and I can confirm this fixes the issue.

All we need now is an updated deb package.
