Hi all, im new to ansible and Ruby but Ive been tasked with creating a new AWS AMI using Packer and Ansible. I have updated the following application.yml from version 2.7.4 to 3.3.5 and the build fails. Heres the relevant part of the applications.yml file that ive updated: rbenv: env: user version: v1.3.0 default\_ruby: 3.3.5 rubies: - version: 3.3.5 rbenv\_users: - ‘{{ user }}’ and heres the config in main.yml * * * - name: xxx-xxx-application hosts: all gather\_facts: true become: true tasks: The command I run to trigger the build is: AWS\_PROFILE=staging packer build -var “env=staging” -var “terraform-env=stage” packer-application This results in the following error that seems to be related to zzet.rbenv having issues with ‘psych’ package which I cannot resolve. I cannot log into the instance to check the logfile that is mentioned in the error message. I am running this command from my M1 macbook pro TASK [zzet.rbenv : install specified ruby versions for select users] \*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\*\* failed: [default] (item=Install 3.3.5 for deploy) =\> {“ansible\_loop\_var”: “item”, “changed”: true, “cmd”: “$0 -lc "~/.rbenv/bin/rbenv install --skip-existing 3.3.5"”, “delta”: “0:54:15.124169”, “end”: “2024-11-26 19:35:25.609907”, “item”: [“deploy”, {“version”: “3.3.5”}], “msg”: “non-zero return code”, “rc”: 1, “start”: “2024-11-26 18:41:10.485738”, “stderr”: " % Total % Received % Xferd Average Speed Time Time Time Current\n Dload Upload Total Spent Left Speed\n\r 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 --:–:-- --:–:-- --:–:-- 0\r 43 21.1M 43 9386k 0 0 28.7M 0 --:–:-- --:–:-- --:–:-- 28.6M\r100 21.1M 100 21.1M 0 0 34.0M 0 --:–:-- --:–:-- --:–:-- 33.9M\n\*\*\* Following extensions are not compiled:\npsych:\n\tCould not be configured.

Ive now resolved this issue as ive found that the ansible.builtin.apt command did not deploy the any of the packages I listed in the ansible.yaml file. I found this out by accessing the temp EC2 instance that was creating the AMI and listing installed packages. In the end I installed libyaml-dev from the command line and after a while ruby 3.3.5 was installed. ---
