[sherlockholmes]

Issue Type:

• Bug Report

  Ansible Version:

Ansible 2.0.2

Ansible Configuration:

As default

Environment:

Solaris 11.2 Sparc

Summary:

Unarchive module cant uncompress tar file.

Steps To Reproduce:

I test the command after crash my playbook, with different kinds files as well:

[rhugo@solarislol ~]$ ansible -i hosts solaris -u appadmin -m shell -a 'ls -lh /tmp'
10.77.142.195 | SUCCESS | rc=0 >>
total 723952

-rw-r--r--   1 appadmin otheruser   1007K Feb 18 15:42 apr-1.5.2.tar.gz

[rhugo@solarislol ~]$ ansible -i hosts solaris -u appadmin -m unarchive -a 'src=/tmp/apr-1.5.2.tar.gz dest=/tmp'
10.77.142.195 | FAILED! => {
    "failed": true,
    "msg": "ERROR! file or module does not exist: /tmp/apr-1.5.2.tar.gz"
}
[rhugo@solarislol ~]$ ansible -i hosts solaris -u appadmin -m unarchive -a 'src=/tmp/apr-util-1.5.4.tar.gz dest=/tmp'
10.77.142.195 | FAILED! => {
    "failed": true,
    "msg": "ERROR! file or module does not exist: /tmp/apr-util-1.5.4.tar.gz"
}
[rhugo@solarislol ~]$ ansible -i hosts solaris -u appadmin -m unarchive -a 'src=/tmp/smwa-12.52-sp01-cr04-sol-64.zip dest=/tmp'
10.77.142.195 | FAILED! => {
    "failed": true,
    "msg": "ERROR! file or module does not exist: /tmp/smwa-12.52-sp01-cr04-sol-64.zip"

Expected Results:

I test the same module in ubuntu and uncompress the tar file without problems.

Actual Results:

I think that is a problem of gnutar vs unix tar. Maybe unarchive don't work with the unix tar command.

Same Problem on Solaris 11.3 (x86) on Ansible 2.1.0.0 while 1.9.6 still works

I added a sample playbook and the verbose+debug logs for 2.1 and 1.9 to a gist: https://gist.github.com/passw0rd123/c1475ea4088f43427543119dca7a13f1

@passw0rd123 Can you try again with a more recent Ansible release, preferably the devel branch ?

Also, unarchive only works with GNU tar and unzip because it uses very specific functionality so it is more efficient in how it works. (i.e. it does not extract every time as it used to) We also scrape the output, so support for other tar commands is going to be very fragile.

You can install GNU tar on Solaris 11 with:
