Description of problem:
Using "Install Errata - Katello Ansible Default" to install errata on a content host is failing to generate a valid Ansible playbook. The playbook generated has 4 spaces before the beginning "---" which makes invalidates the playbook as a yaml file.
The error from the template invocation screen shows:
~~~
1:
ERROR! We were unable to read either as JSON nor YAML, these are the errors we got from each:
2:
JSON: Expecting value: line 1 column 5 (char 4)
3:
Syntax Error while loading YAML.
4:
mapping values are not allowed in this context
5:
The error appears to be in '/tmp/d20231219-112896-1iychip/project/playbook.yml': line 2, column 8, but may
6:
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
7:
The offending line appears to be:
8:
---
9:
- hosts: all
10:
^ here
11:
Exit status: 4
12:
StandardError: Job execution failed
~~~
Further, the actual playbook generated on the Ansible working directory of the Satellite looks like this:
~~~
---
- hosts: all
tasks:
- shell:
cmd: |
yum -y update-minimal --advisory=RHSA-2022:4867
register: out
- debug: var=out
~~~
This was working in Satellite 6.13, and is now broken in 6.14.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
Satellite 6.14
How reproducible:
always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Navigate to "Hosts => Content Hosts"
2. Select checkbox next to a host (that has installable errata), and select "Manage Errata" from the "Select Action" drop down menu
3. Select 1 errata from the list, and select "via remote execution" from the "Install Selected" drop down menu.
4. Step 3 may trigger the Katello Errata Install via SSH, and not Ansible. If so, instead of selecting "via remote execution", select "via remote execution - customize first". Then select "Katello via Ansible" for the job category, and "Install Errata - Katello Ansible Default" for the job template. Make sure to add errata if it gets removed (e.g. errata_id ^ (RHSA-2022:4867) ).
Actual results:
Remote Execution task fails
Expected results:
Remote Execution task succeeds, and tries to install errata on the host
Additional info:
As a work around, the "Install Errata - Katello Script Default" job template from the "Katello" job category still works.
