Hi,
The user_data must be the actual script you want to run, so it shouldn't
have any additional formatting and should start with #!/bin/bash.
Something like this should work:
user_data: |
#!/bin/bash
source /home/centos/startup.sh
kind regards

Hi Stephen,
Can you please help me with the below script for the user data?
I just wanted user data to run "source /home/centos/startup.sh" when the
server starts.
I had used this
user_data:
{
#!/bin/bash
source /home/centos/startup.sh
}
but it didn't work.
Ah, OK - ignore me.
I wrote a module to handle the launch config creation and my module wasn't
ingesting the user_data because it wasn't set up to do so.
Once I added the user-data as a parameter, it worked OK - working code
below.
- name: Launch Configs
ec2_lc:
aws_access_key: {{
I repeated my launch config with a bash script of:
#!/bin/bash
echohello world
The resulting output:
TASK: [lc | Launch Configs]
***
changed: [localhost] = (item={'instance_type': u't2.small',
'lc_security_groups': u'sg-b1423ad4', 'image_id':
