Expected outcome:
Doesn’t create new hosts and updates existing ones. The job details for the reporting functionality looks closer to the input from puppet.
Foreman and Proxy versions:
1.17 Foreman and Proxy plugin versions:
not using a proxy in the awx container. just using callback script from
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/awx/plugins/callback/foreman.py
/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ansible/plugins/callback/foreman.py
setup the foreman ssl cert and foreman.ini in /etc/ansible/foreman.ini
provides cert, key, url, user and password.
Other relevant data:
I do notice it just to pull container info everytime a job runs from awx.

Foreman attempts to set operating system major and minor version as well as OS name etc from your facts. It looks like your input is not correct and major/minor are not integers, thus this fails to save in the database. Please send us facts from the host which fails, in json format (facter --json). I assume you are using Puppet.
Workaround: Set ignore_facts_for_operatingsystem setting in Administer menu to not set OS from facts.
@lzap@Gwmngilfen - Yes this is specifically about trying to get reports from AWX (open source tower). We are using puppet as well for some different tasks and I am trying to get the reports into foreman, as overall location for reporting on hosts. the AWX container labeled as localhost isn’t really an issue (it runs in a docker container and is updating a host entry called localhost but I am not worried about grabbing it’s os major and minor. I am more specifically looking at the sa1x-spacewalk-p1 instance creating new hosts when a job is run in awx. it doesn’t combine with the existing host even. I am looking for any help with the integration between awx and foreman. (or if the callbacks can be used in that type of environment.)
You changed the title but that doesn’t reflect my issue I don’t care about the container os. Like if that is for development that is fine with me. Specifically I am wondering why the callback isn’t updating an existing host record and why when I set the stdout to a callback of foreman it is being sent as Json and doesn’t look clean inside of foreman.
Admittedly I thought they both revolve around an issue with the foreman ansible callback module. But if it would be easier I can split them. I just provided the tail of a log after kicking off an awx job.
@ansible - Hi all, I was wondering if you any of you had some information about this? The callback is creating new hosts in ansible each time a job is run in awx. And the formatting seems to comeback in a json format that doesn’t display nicely in foreman when run for those hosts. I’d like to help more and can try to provided better feedback.
@ansible, @Gwmngilfen, @lzap - I am wondering if anyone knows specifically can I use the foreman callback features from inside of the awx 1.0.3 container? Even if it is something you are just looking into and you need sometime - any feedback into this thread would be very much appreciated.
I haven’t read the whole thread, but if the question is whether callback would work on awx container, I’d say yes. awx container probably contains recent version of ansible engine which has the foreman callback builtin. You only need to enable it in /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg so as long as the container allows you doing that, it should be fine.
