[ansible-project] Handling "file not found" for the slurp module

[Shabir Abdul Samdh]

Hello All,

I am trying to read a file from a remote host and do some checks on its
content using the slurp module
.
However I want these checks to run only if the file exists. If the file is
not found I want to skip some of the following tasks.

However, it seems like the slurp module fails when the file I am looking
for is not found. Is there a way to handle the case of a file not being
there gracefully when using slurp?

Thank you very much
Best regards

Re: [ansible-project] Expect still prompting to continue

[Alex Wanderley]

Hello Andrew,

Why not use Ansible's "expect" module instead?
I've been using it in a playbook to perform an interactive installation and
that module works just fine as the expect Shell command:

 - name: install ahf
  expect:
  echo: yes
  timeout: null
  command: "{{ ahf_installer }}"
  responses:
(.*)Do you want to install AHF at \[/opt/oracle.ahf\] \?
\[Y\]\|N :(.*): "Y"
(.*)Please Enter AHF Data Directory :(.*): "{{
server_data_dir }}"
(.*)Do you want to add AHF Notification Email IDs \?
\[Y]\|N :(.*): "N"
(.*)Enter Email IDs separated by space :(.*): "{{
ahf_notification_emails }}"
(.*)Do you want AHF to store your My Oracle Support
Credentials for Automatic Upload \? Y\|\[N\] :(.*): "N"
  register: ahf_installer_result
  changed_when: "'AHF is already installed' not in
ahf_installer_result.stdout"

Regards,

Alex

`send "y\n"` is a "y" followed by a new-line character, which may work (I 
would be surprised), but most of the 'expect' examples I'm seeing would use 
`send "y\r"` which is a "y" followed by a return.

Re: [ansible-project] Expect still prompting to continue

[Kevin Shumaker]

Is 'send "y\n" ' a valid response to the expect? Or should it be just "y" 
or just "n"?

Re: [ansible-project] Expect still prompting to continue

['Rowe, Walter P. (Fed)' via Ansible Project]

Also note they specifically tell the shell module that expect is the 
executable. See blue bold text below.

- name: Run expect to wait for a successful PXE boot via out-of-band CIMC
  ansible.builtin.shell: |
set timeout 300
spawn ssh admin@{{ cimc_host }}

expect "password:"
send "{{ cimc_password }}\n"

expect "\n{{ cimc_name }}"
send "connect host\n"

expect "pxeboot.n12"
send "\n"

exit 0

executable: /usr/bin/expect

In your case you might need to change it to look like this:

  shell: |
set timeout -1
log_file /tmp/nbexpect.log
spawn /usr/openv/netbackup/bin/goodies/nbcomponentupdate -product

I have not done this myself. This is just a guess based on the ansible-doc page 
for the shell module.

Re: [ansible-project] creating a postgres user - non default postgres port

[Dick Visser]

This is correct, you supplied the port parameter at the task level itself,
while you should provide it to the task.

Indent one level more.

[ansible-project] creating a postgres user - non default postgres port

[dulhaver via Ansible Project]

I am trying to create a postgres user/role with 
community.postgresql.postgresql_user.
The instance I am trying to address runs on port 5436 so my TASK looks like


  - name: create db admin user
community.postgresql.postgresql_user:
  name: "{{ item }}"
become: true
port: "{{ pg_service_port.stdout }}"
loop:
  - "{{ pg_service_admin }}"


the pg_service_port.stdout value is created earlier in my playbook and equals 
to 5436 in the example here

however creation of the postgres user throws this error at me:

   ssh: connect to host vm-414001-0227.step.zrz.dvz.cn-mv.de port 5436

this looks as it the expected port is used to try connection to my remote host 
via ssh for that particular TASK, not logging in to postgresql. 

the docs imply something else though

   - port
Database port to connect to.
(Aliases: login_port)[Default: 5432]
type: int

so ... what is my misinterpretation here?

I can make it work with a shell command, so at least I can confirm the 
variables and basic logic works


  - name: create db_admin user with shell
ansible.builtin.shell:
  cmd: '/opt/db/postgres/postgresql-12.11-postgis-3.2.1-el8-ina1/bin/psql 
-p {{ pg_service_port.stdout }} -c "CREATE ROLE {{ pg_service_admin }};"'
become: true

Better put a `-n` on that `sort`.
