Hi all,
I have a playbook which installs an rpm. The rpm requires input (yikes), so
I have written an expect script that is executed. So sadly the yum module
is not an option, but it all works fine.
I only want to run the script though, when the rpm is not already present.
So I have this:
- name: Check if managesoft is installed
command: rpm -q managesoft
ignore_errors: true
failed_when: rpm_check.rc > 1
changed_when: false
register: rpm_check
when: ansible_os_family == 'RedHat'
tags: flexera
- name: Install expect
yum:
name: "expect"
state: installed
when: rpm_check.stdout.find('is not installed') != -1 and
ansible_os_family == 'RedHat'
tags: flexera
Now when I run the playbook in check mode like this:
ansible-playbook --tags="flexera" --limit="x.x.x.x" peganonprd.yml -vC
This happens:
TASK [flexera : Install expect]
************************************************
fatal: [x.x.x.x]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "ERROR! The
conditional check 'rpm_check.stdout.find('is not installed') != -1 and
ansible_os_family == 'RedHat'' failed. The error was: ERROR! error while
evaluating conditional (rpm_check.stdout.find('is not installed') != -1 and
ansible_os_family == 'RedHat'): ERROR! 'dict object' has no attribute
'stdout'\n\nThe error appears to have been in
'/etc/ansible/roles/flexera/tasks/package.yml': line 11, column 3, but
may\nbe elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.\n\nThe
offending line appears to be:\n\n\n- name: Install expect\n ^ here\n"}
But if I run it without the -C, it goes through without issues. Which is
annoying as I use -C frequently...
How can this be explained?
