Questions

Guys,

I need to build out a new virt with the latest awx, was awx-1.08, does anyone have a url I can use for this?

Also, in Ansible Tower, you can do this command

sudo tower-manage inventory_import --source=/home/student1/lightbulb/lessons/lab_inventory/student1-instances.txt --inventory-name=“Ansible Workshop Inventory”

Does the latest have anything like this?

Guys,

Never Mind, I found it

Guys,

I am having issue install awx

05- Install Python and dependcies:
yum -y install rh-python36
yum -y install --disablerepo='*' --enablerepo='mrmeee-ansible-awx, base' -x *-debuginfo rh-python36*

There are two packages conflicting

from install of rh-python36-gitdb2-2.0.6-1.noarch conflicts with file from package rh-python36-gitdb-4.0.2-1.noarch

How can I get pass this?

The awx-wiki site has the answers for that, they have a new installer for the systemd style AWX.

https://awx.wiki/installation

You will want to use that as they have a new repo and a new installer that should do everything for you.

LMK if that helps.

Robert,

wget -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ansible-awx.repo https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/mrmeee/ansible-awx/repo/epel-7/mrmeee-ansible-awx-epel-7.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/ansible-awx.repo: No such file or directory

Hi Chuck,

Not sure about the error, but I have followed the below process to set up my lab last week, which is working fine.
Maybe you would be interested to take a look.

I think I have found it

We can’t use docker where I work, knock on wood, the new installer seems to work.

Some of us still have to use virts. Our infosec group, get upset when we talk docker.

I will let you guys know how this goes, fyi, our work horse has been AWX 1.0.8.14 for the last two years.

Pup

just as an FYI that project is stalled at version 11.2, and there is a bug in the inventory scripts. They will not be providing any updates to the project for a couple months, as they are starting it from scratch.

You talking about the AWX project as a whole?

No… talking about the awx.wiki project. which is awx outside of docker.

That link doesn’t open anything, what is the current version? Is there talk?

The installer that on the wiki front page worked great.

The comments state that the new builds are going to be delayd a couple months. as for the inventory bug, it was a bug in the source code, there is a manual fix for it but you will need to search for it.
