Ansible + Packer = nothing?

[Foster, Rilindo]

I am currently experimenting with deploying using Packer’s Ansible local provisioning and for some odd reason, it doesn’t appear to be executing the tasks in the playbook. Packer, after installing  the pre-requiresites for Ansible, uploads the following

 

Inventory file (“hosts”)

 

[localhost]

localhost ansible_connection=local

 

The playbook file (“local.yml”):

 

---

- hosts: localhost

  connection: local

  become: yes

  become_method: sudo

  tasks:

  - name: Making sure that ansible is actually executing this playbook

    shell: echo "hello world"

  - name: install packages

    package: name={{ item }} state=present

    with_items: 

      - nginx

      - git

      - curl

      - libmysqlclient-dev

      - libmysqlclient18

      - mysql-common

      - nodejs

      - tcpdump

 

The output is as follows (running Ansible against a Ubuntu 14.04 instance):

 

    amazon-ebs: Executing Ansible: cd /tmp/packer-provisioner-ansible-local && ANSIBLE_FORCE_COLOR=1 PYTHONUNBUFFERED=1 ansible-playbook /tmp/packer-provisioner-ansible-local/local.yml -c local -i /tmp/packer-provisioner-ansible-local/hosts

==> amazon-ebs: Stopping the source instance...

==> amazon-ebs: Waiting for the instance to stop.

 

As you can see, there is no Ansible output, which I assume I should get (somebody correct me if I am wrong).

 

I did manual run of the playbook, which worked successfully.  At this point, I am not sure if I missing something or not.

I dumbs.

 

I had a reboot option in my packer config, which mean that the machine was rebooting right when I was running ansible code.

 

It works now. J
