wcm-io-devops / ansible-jenkins-configuration-as-code Goto Github PK

Sorry for making an issue, I couldn't figure out another way to send in a question :/

I'm curious about the reload approach you are using, as compared to using the CASC_RELOAD_TOKEN approach described https://github.com/jenkinsci/configuration-as-code-plugin/blob/master/docs/features/configurationReload.md particularly given the linked page specifically mentions the groovy script approach is not recommended with the added context "Note: that running the above code in a pipeline will put this plugin in a bad state where the configuration cannot be reloaded at all until Jenkins is restarted. See jenkinsci/configuration-as-code-plugin#1227 for more info."

I suspect part of the reason is that CASC_RELOAD_TOKEN didn't exist before and/or was hard to use. But I'm also wondering if there is another advantage to the approach you are using and I'm just not seeing it.

Thanks!

Hi,

Have you changed the owner user from your repositories?

I've been using your roles from more than a year ago, and today I've started to get the following error when installing your role "jenkins_configuration_as_code":

- downloading role 'jenkins_configuration_as_code', owned by wcm_io_devops
- downloading role from https://github.com/wcm_io_devops/ansible-jenkins-configuration-as-code/archive/1.13.0.tar.gz
 [ERROR]: failed to download the file: HTTP Error 404: Not Found
[WARNING]: - wcm_io_devops.jenkins_configuration_as_code was NOT installed successfully.
ERROR! - you can use --ignore-errors to skip failed roles and finish processing the list.

I've tried to point to what I've supposed that is the correct URL and this solved the error but I've started to receive a new error when trying to download the role wcm_io_devops.jenkins_plugins used by ansible-jenkins-configuration-as-code ...

Thanks

I am very new to Jenkins so it is almost definitely an error on my part but I created a very simple role that installs and starts a Jenkins instance to the first step of the setup wizard (the initial password located at /var/lib/jenkins/secrets/initialAdminPassword)
I then tried to include this role like this:

• name: "Deploy jcasc"
  become: true
  hosts: max-jenkins2
  vars:
  jenkins_casc_config_path_configure: true
  jenkins_casc_config_path: "/var/lib/jenkins/jcasc-folder"
  jenkins_casc_config_fileglobs:
  - config_demo.yml
  roles:
  • casc

I am requiring the role in a requirements file:

• src: https://github.com/wcm-io-devops/ansible-jenkins-configuration-as-code
  scm: git
  version: master
  name: casc

And when I run the whole thing it installs Jenkins then moves onto this roles tasks and fails at

TASK [wcm_io_devops.jenkins_facts : gather_jenkins_facts : execute gather script on jenkins instance.] ***
fatal: [jenkins]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "HTTP error 401 HTTP Error 401: Unauthorized", "output": ""}

Any Ideas on what I am doing wrong? Or what could be causing the issue?

I understand this error usually would come if I had the wrong credentials being given but surely since the instance is blank there are no credentials yet?
