Problem: Foreman ansible plugin installation failed on a new installation of foreman

sudo foreman-installer --enable-foreman-plugin-ansible --enable-foreman-proxy-plugin-ansible

ruby-smart-proxy-dynflow-core : Depends: ruby-foreman-tasks-core (>= 0.3.3) but it is not going to be installed

apt search ruby-foreman-tasks-core
ruby-foreman-tasks-core/xenial,xenial 0.2.5-1 all

Expected outcome: ruby-smart-proxy-dynflow-core needs ruby-foreman-tasks-core (>= 0.3.3) but only 0.2.5-1 available

You can pass --foreman-proxy-plugin-ansible-install-runner false to avoid attempting to install the package. It looks like the GPG key was hardcoded which means there isn’t really an easy way to change it.

An alternative is to manage the repo yourself and pass --foreman-proxy-plugin-ansible-manage-runner-repo false.

Please file an issue at Issues - Installer - Foreman about this.

Many thanks. I did a new installation. Had the same error message but testet ansible and it did work.

The error message made me thinking there is something wrong … bus it was not.

Preparing installation Done
Something went wrong! Check the log for ERROR-level output

I’ll open a issue so that the error handling can be optimized.

6

For the record, I asked ansible-runner devs for bionic repo, hopefully they’ll build packages for it.

Many thanks.
The ansible call back works. Import of ansible roles too. But when I run a ansible job I get following error message:

They just built bionic packages (untested) https://releases.ansible.com/ansible-runner/deb/dists/bionic/

please let us know if that works. It does not help with the error you sent last, that seems like a REX issue on debian, I know someone reported something similar in the past. I think REX on debian is broken for a while.

9

@mmoll has been working on that in nightly. Has this already been backported to a release?

10

Perfect. Thank you. The installation is working now without any error. (Had the same missing public_key as on 16.04. -> will open a case for that).

How can I test the ansible-runner? Or is it ok if I get the right version like below?

ansible-runner --version
1.4.4

11

@Marek_Hulan @aruzicka is there a require 'foreman_tasks_core' missing in smart_proxy_dynflow_core (or elsewhere)? I can’t really deduce it from the backtrace, but maybe launcher.rb or even helpers.rb?

12

I’m a bit foggy about how things are packaged on deb, but shouldn’t the ruby-foreman-remote-execution-core package be installed? And the same probably applies for ansible-core

13

I was able to install ‘‘sudo apt install ruby-foreman-remote-execution-core’’

But got an error during ‘‘sudo apt install ruby-foreman-ansible-core’’

Unpacking ruby-foreman-ansible-core (3.0.1-1) …
dpkg: error processing archive /var/cache/apt/archives/ruby-foreman-ansible-core_3.0.1-1_all.deb (–unpack):
trying to overwrite ‘/usr/bin/json_inventory.sh’, which is also in package ruby-smart-proxy-ansible 3.0.0-2
Errors were encountered while processing:
/var/cache/apt/archives/ruby-foreman-ansible-core_3.0.1-1_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)

14

yeah probably the best you can do now, the better test would be to see that Foreman can run some ansible playbook however that’s only possible when the other issue discussed here is resolved

15

Installed with ‘‘sudo dpkg -i --force-overwrite /var/cache/apt/archives/ruby-foreman-ansible-core_3.0.1-1_all.deb’’

Which OS should I use to get a running ansible foreman installation? Looks like ubuntu is not the best option.

CentOS 7 is the most tested base OS and the one used by the majority of users. It is also the only one supported if you want to use the Katello plugin (keep in mind if you do want to use Katello it can’t be added on to an existing installation but rather has to be installed from the start).
