Hi, I was trying to upgrade from ansible 1.8.4 to ansible 2, and noticed that some of my roles with meta dependencies stopped working.
I have these roles role-main1/meta/main.yml --- dependencies: - { role: role-dependency } role-main2/meta/main.yml --- dependencies: - { role: role-dependency } role-dependency/meta/main.yml --- allow_duplicates: yes Now, I have a playbook which calls the roles role-main1 and role-main2 based on some condition - { role: role-main1, when: (z1|bool) } - { role: role-main2, when: (z2|bool) } Everything works fine if both the conditions are met and both roles get called if z1=true z2=true 1. role-dependency => executed 2. role-main1 => executed 3. role-dependency => executed 4. role-main2 => executed But if the first condition fails then the dependency fails to execute even for the second role If z1=false z2=true 1. role-dependency => skipped 2. role-main1 => skipped 3. role-dependency => skipped (We were expecting this to be executed) 4. role-main2 => executed This was working in my earlier version of ansible (1.8.4), I even tested it in 1.9 version and it worked fine. It seems to be broken in ansible 2 series. Can someone help here. Thanks Deep -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
