Srop nginx playbook

[rebecca acheampong]

I am writing a playbook to stop nginx on a remote host (ubuntu). Please I appreciate your help as usual. Thank you

I get this timeout error:

TASK [nginx.service] ***********************************************************

fatal: [my_vm_01]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Unable to stop service nginx.service: Failed to stop nginx.service: Connection timed out\nSee system logs and 'systemctl status nginx.service' for details.\n"}

Remote host syslog information:

May  5 16:23:37 cyber01-virtual-machine systemd[1]: Started Session 26 of user cyber01.

May  5 16:23:39 cyber01-virtual-machine python3[6573]: ansible-setup Invoked with gather_subset=['!all'] filter=ansible_service_mgr gather_timeout=10 fact_path=/etc/ansible/facts.d

Hello,

Can you stop the nginx manually... On remote server and see if that is yhe problem and not ansible..

You are right. I cannot stop it manually. I am trying to solve that. Thank you

Yes, that's good idea. In some cases I got a similar error message, but the service was actually stopped.
Don't know if Ansible uses a different timeout than systemd itself.
