Hi guys, There seem to be a problem during collections install from galaxy.ansible.com . ERROR! Error when getting collection version metadata for community.library_inventory_filtering_v1:1.1.5 from release_galaxy (https://galaxy.ansible.com/api/) (HTTP Code: 500, Message: Internal Server Error Cod…

UPDATE: System is recovered now.

To bypass the problem, you can switch to git, e.g. - name: signalfx.splunk_otel_collector ↓ - name: https://github.com/signalfx/splunk-otel-collector.git#/deployments/ansible/ type: git or - name: community.zabbix version: 4.1.1 ↓ - name: https://github.com/ansible-collections…

Do we have any way to get an ETA for this? Has the issue been identified and how bad is it? We need to know if we need point directly to git repos. Thank you!

Thanks @tchernomax , I can confirm the workaround worked for me. For anyone who’s new to Ansible but has to work around the issue, the suggested change would typically be within a collections: block in your requirements.yml file.

Another workaround, if the collection was installed through a one-liner command, would be to switch from ansible-galaxy collection install "containers.podman=1.18.1" to ansible-galaxy collection install git+https://github.com/containers/ansible-podman-collections.git,1.18.1

Same problem. Is it related to Ansible client version, or it’s shared backend problem?

@Andrey_Svinarenko It’s a backend server problem.

Hi, We (the Galaxy team) identified an issue with Database migrations and we are working on the incident and we must have the system recoverded soon.

Thank you all for your input here, and for raising the issue with Galaxy! I appreciate you all calling it to our attention, and for your patience as we came to a resolution. We’re currently compiling a root cause analysis for this outage, which we can share the output of here when it’s complete to …

Hello! A status page would be interesting, moreover, one we can query with a HTTP request and error code to know what’s up to add to monitoring. Thank you.

galaxy.ansible.com is a single point if failure, consider a mirroring setup.

Get Help

I’ve started Mirroring / proxy caching galaxy. I haven’t been sure about the category, but thought that “Get Help” would be slightly better than “Project Discussions”. If you think I’ve been wrong there, please let me know and I’ll try to change this.
