Re: [ansible-project] Raw module and interactive commands
Is there a tutorial anywhere about how to get started using the expect module? I've installed pexpect but when I try to use it in a playbook it fails with this message: ERROR: expect is not a legal parameter in an Ansible task or handler Based on what I've found (I could only find 2-3 examples, there doesn't seem to be any documentation other than https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/expect_module.html, which doesn't adequately explain how to use it), the playbook should look something like this. tasks: - expect: command: save primary responses: Do you want to save configuration to primary.cfg and overwrite it\? \(y/N\): "Y" Am I missing something? This page says that the extra's modules is shipped with ansible, is that still accurate? https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/modules_extra.html James On Tuesday, December 1, 2015 at 5:53:52 PM UTC-7, Brian Coca wrote: > > No, its completely batch, you can try the expect module for interactive > prompts. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.

Re: [ansible-project] Raw module and interactive commands
I've uninstalled and reinstalled version 1.9.4 and it isn't with it. I downloaded it from github and added "library = /path/to/ansible/modules:/path/to/extras" to the ansible.cfg file, had to fix my command to the following text - expect: command: save primary responses: Do you want to save configuration to primary.cfg and overwrite it\? \(y/N\): "Y" but I still get an error. It looks like ansible is still trying to copy a file to the switch. The switches don't allow files to be copied to them. I'm guessing I can't use the expect module after all. fatal: [sw_s1-6] => Authentication or permission failure. In some cases, you may have been able to authenticate and did not have permissions on the remote directory. Consider changing the remote temp path in ansible.cfg to a path rooted in "/tmp".

Re: [ansible-project] Raw module and interactive commands
On investigation it appears that I do not have the expect module. I thought I installed ansible with pip install ansible, but I earlier tried homebrew but it didn't work. Maybe something got messed up. I guess I'll try to figure out how to fix my installation. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.

Re: [ansible-project] Raw module and interactive commands
Extreme Networks' EXOS. It's Linux based but doesn't have Python or other languages except one that I can't remember it's heritage (TCL maybe?). I think the prompt is a heavily modified BusyBox or something. I'm not sure how I would go about testing those 2 modules. I could try them if you think they might work. I can use the raw module to send commands and get back results, I just can't find any way around some of the interactive prompts. I believe Extreme is working on adding Ansible support to their OS, but my switches won't can't be upgraded to any newer versions so I can't get those updates. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.

The version on my master computer is: OpenSSL 0.9.8zc 15 Oct 2014. I can't seem to find the version on the the clients, which are switches. What I don't get is why --ask-pass works with OpenSSH but private keys don't. I added this to my ansible.cfg and it made no difference but I'm not sure if this is what you meant by "empty ssh_args".

One more comment, if I add --ask-pass to the Ansible command it works.
