Hello, I'm trying to learn Ansible and started with installing Ansible with Tower UI. Tried simple "Helloworld" echo task that fails on Tower but works manually through ansible-playbook.
I need to connect to Host through ProxyCommand so my playbook configuration looks like this: - Helloworld - ansible.cfg - ssh.config - helloworld.yml In ansible.cfg: *"[ssh_connection]* *ssh_args = -F ssh.config -o ControlPersist=15m -o ControlMaster=auto -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null* *control_path = %(directory)s/%%h-%%r* *[defaults]* *system_errors = false* *hostfile = /etc/ansible/hosts* *library = /usr/share/ansible* *host_key_checking = False* *ask_sudo_pass = False* *pattern = ** *timeout = 10* *poll_interval = 15"* In ssh.config: *"Host x.x.x.50* * User user* * ProxyCommand ssh user@x.x.x.60 nc %h %p* * StrictHostKeyChecking no* * UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null* *Host x.x.x.60* * User user* * ProxyCommand none* * StrictHostKeyChecking no* * UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null"* Playbook is a simple echo with a user "user". Running manually ansible-playbook or ansible ping works fine on both hosts and it successfully hops to x.x.x.50. However on Tower it works on single x.60 server but gets stuck on x.50. Stuck on x.50: *"<x.x.x.50> REMOTE_MODULE setup* *<**x.x.x.50**> EXEC ssh -C -tt -v -F ssh.config -o ControlPersist=15m -o ControlMaster=auto -o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o ControlPath="/tmp/ansible_tower_5VA1fm/cp/ansible-ssh-%h-%p-%r" -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -o KbdInteractiveAuthentication=no -o PreferredAuthentications=gssapi-with-mic,gssapi-keyex,hostbased,publickey -o PasswordAuthentication=no -o User=user -o ConnectTimeout=10 **x.x.x.50** /bin/sh -c 'mkdir -p $HOME/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1432108998.93-90931163714921 && chmod a+rx $HOME/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1432108998.93-90931163714921 && echo $HOME/.ansible/tmp/ansible-tmp-1432108998.93-90931163714921' EXEC previous known host file not found for **x.x.x.50** The authenticity of host '* *x.x.x.60** (**x.x.x.60**)' can't be established.. Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?"* Only difference i see is that manually running ansible-playbook uses different ControlPath. I've also tried putting custom ControlPaths even setting it in ssh_args manually and it changes fine when running ansible-playbook manually, but in Tower the path always stays the same tmp/.. path. Can anyone help me figure out what could be the problem? Is the problem that Tower is using tmp/ for ControlPath and it's not persistant before running ProxyCommand? Any ideas how to fix it? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
