heat stack-create fails; Deployment exited with non-zero status code: 4 about openshift-on-openstack HOT 11 CLOSED

Hi, yes - we need to improve the ansible error logging (at least point users to ansible log).
If you ssh to the infra node, there should be /var/log/ansible.xxx file - there should be more details about the fail in this file.

Great - thanks @jprovaznik!

Yeah I can see the error is..

ERROR! 'vars_files' is not a valid attribute for a PlaybookInclude

The error appears to have been in '/usr/share/ansible/openshift-ansible/playbooks/byo/openshift-cluster/config.yml': line 2, column 3, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.

The offending line appears to be:

---
- include: ../../common/openshift-cluster/config.yml
  ^ here

I'm happy to have a dig around, presumably I can just rerun the playbook from the infra node?

from openshift-on-openstack.

Yep, you can ssh to infra node and re-run with:
export ANSIBLE_ROLES_PATH=/usr/share/ansible/openshift-ansible/roles
export ANSIBLE_HOST_KEY_CHECKING=False
ansible-playbook --inventory /var/lib/ansible/inventory /var/lib/ansible/playbooks/main.yml

Great thanks, a little bit of googling suggests it might be the version of ansible that's installed on the infra node I can see it's..
ansible --version
ansible 2.0.1.0

The openshift ansible installer setup lists ansible-1.9.4 as the version https://github.com/openshift/openshift-ansible#setup

Not figured out yet how ansible is being installed in the heat scripts yet to try the previous version...

Then it might be related to this PR - #90

from openshift-on-openstack.

Ah yeah it looks like it, looks like I cloned the repo just before this change - I'll delete the stack and try again with the latest version as that looks promising.

Note that this PR is not merged yet

from openshift-on-openstack.

Ah good point :) I'll make the change locally and let you know how it goes.

from openshift-on-openstack.

That certainly got me further and looks to have solved the ERROR! 'vars_files' is not a valid attribute for a PlaybookInclude

I've got another problem now which I'll raise seperately.

from openshift-on-openstack.

#90 has been merged so it should fix the original issue
