My guess would be that your playbook tried to start it before it had finished shutting down.
Simplest thing to do would be wait a bit before trying the start, but it would be better to check it is down. You could use wait_for module to check it is down: http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/wait_for_module.html Incidentally, checking that tomcat is fully up and ready to service requests is tricky as it seems to lock its listening port and then not respond on it for some time. We used to just wait before polling a particular url but now we use a pattern similar to what is described here to poll until we get a 200 https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/ansible-project/do-until$20with$20uri$20module%7Csort:relevance/ansible-project/iLjIbsCASWU/ZmE-wYdtLQAJ Hope this helps, Jon On Thursday, September 15, 2016 at 4:10:11 PM UTC+1, [email protected] wrote: > > Hi, > > - hosts: dev_tomcat > vars: > http_port: 8080 > sudo: true > sudo_user: build > tasks: > - name: copy_shut > copy: src=/etc/ansible/playbooks/scripts/shutdown_all.sh dest=/tmp > - name: change_permission_shut > file: path=/tmp/shutdown_all.sh mode=777 > - name: copy_start > copy: src=/etc/ansible/playbooks/scripts/startup_all.sh dest=/tmp > - name: change_permission_start > file: path=/tmp/startup_all.sh mode=777 > - name: stopping tomcat > shell: /tmp/./shutdown_all.sh > - name: starting tomcat > #command: sudo -u build /etc/init.d/tomcat start > shell: /tmp/./startup_all.sh > > startup_all.sh => /etc/init.d/tomcat start > ~ > > Shutdown was happen properly, but it did not start tomcat, please advise > how to resolve this. > > Thanks, > > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ansible Project" group.
