CONFIGURATION

I'm using bigip_iapp_template from github (that is the latest version) rather than the one installed from ansible

OS / ENVIRONMENT

RHEL 7.4

SUMMARY

This happens using force:false or force:true. In any case not having a service instantiated.

It always reports "Ok" rather than "changed" which is what I would expect

TASK [add-customer-services : Add to the BIG-IP library the iApp file customer-services.tmpl] ***
ok: [10.105.211.111 -> localhost]

but the iApp template is not really updated, in the BIG-IP nothing is shown in the logs. If using force: true then I get the following in the logs.

Dec 26 11:11:00 bigip1 err mcpd[5915]: 01070734:3: Configuration error: When updating status on AppTemplate /Common/customer-services, signature verification of included scripts failed

I found this is happening from some time now but I failed to report it before.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Just try to update an iApp template, there is no need to have an iapp instance of the template

Please let me know if I can help any way.
