Dear all,
I have a problem with the jenkins_plugins module.
Within a playbook that pull a jenkins docker image (jenkins/jenkins:lts-alpine) and runs it to install the instance and configure it, I have a task that install a list of plugins on an instance, which is :
`
- name: Install plugins
jenkins_plugin:
owner: “{{ jenkins_process_user }}”
group: “{{ jenkins_process_group }}”
name: “{{ item }}”
state: latest
timeout: 120
url: “http://{{ jenkins_hostname }}:{{ jenkins_http_port }}{{ jenkins_url_prefix }}”
url_username: “{{ jenkins_admin_name }}”
url_password: “{{ jenkins_admin_password }}”
with_dependencies: yes
loop: “{{ jenkinsPlugins }}”
register: pluginResult
until: not pluginResult.failed
retries: 5
notify: restart_image
become: True
become_user: “{{ jenkins_process_user }}”
`
It works correctly when the playbook is run for the first time.
All plugins are installed, and possibly retried in case of problem.
But, when I relaunch exactly the same playbook, Each and every plugin installation is retried up to the max nbr of retry and fails with (for example):
`
failed: [devEnv] (item=blueocean) => {“ansible_loop_var”: “item”, “attempts”: 5, “changed”: false, “item”: “blueocean”, “msg”: “Jenkins home directory doesn’t exist.”}
`
For sure, I have verified that the jenkins home directory actually exists and has the awaited "{{ jenkins_process_user }}" and
"{{ jenkins_process_group }}" owner and group, which is jenkins:jenkins.
I really cannot explain why I get this error, which clearly makes this playbook not idempotent !
For sure, I can give the whole playbook if you need additional information.
Thanks for your help.
J-L
