What You Are Seeing?

I have below ansible playbook, which was working fine before . From last week, we have been experiencing issues while installing the packages on the windows 2019 server using "win_chocolatey".

Kindly find with the following details.

OS version windows-2019
Ansible version 2.11.12
Chocolatey version: 2.0.0

Below is my playbook

- name: Install PowerShell Core
  win_chocolatey:
    name: powershell-core
    state: present
    install_args: ADD_EXPLORER_CONTEXT_MENU_OPENPOWERSHELL=1 REGISTER_MANIFEST=1 USE_MU=1 ENABLE_MU=1
- name: Install Chromium
  win_chocolatey:
    name: chromium
    state: present

What I tried is to update the "chocolatey" but that didn't work. Although it upgraded from "Chocolatey version: 2.0.0" to "Chocolatey version: 2.2.2", but no luck.

- name: Ensure Chocolatey is up-to-date
  win_chocolatey:
    name: chocolatey
    state: latest

Main issue is that it's not able to resolve the dependency , if I explicit define the dependency which is showing up in the error message, then it will through same error with some other package dependency.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ It's failing with below error messages.

What is Expected?

win_chocolatey ansible module should resolve the dependency and install the packages on the windows 2019 server.

How Did You Get This To Happen?

I run the below ansible playbook and I have observed this behavior from last week. name: Install AWS CLI win_chocolatey: name: awscli state: present
- name: Install PowerShell Core win_chocolatey: name: powershell-core state: present install_args: ADD_EXPLORER_CONTEXT_MENU_OPENPOWERSHELL=1 REGISTER_MANIFEST=1 USE_MU=1 ENABLE_MU=1
- name: Install Chromium win_chocolatey: name: chromium state: present

I have found the work around by specifying the dependency in the ansible playbook.

name: Installing dependency packages. win_chocolatey: name: '{{ item }}' state: present loop:
- chocolatey-windowsupdate.extension
- kb2919442
- kb2919355
- kb3118401

But again , its like before installing any packge using chocolatey via ansible, I have to confirm the dependency first from the portal , ensure they are added and then run the playbook.

Whereas this was not required earlier . Does anyone aware why the dependency are not getting resolved by the "win_chocolatey" module?

There were updates yesterday to the Chocolatey Community Repository that could have caused this and then some updates later that could have fixed this. Can you:

Try again?
Try it with Chocolatey CLI directly and see if you get the same results?

The issue may also be down to caching.

gurupreet18121990 commented 2 months ago

hello @pauby

I have tried to re-run the code with the previous logic and its failing for installing "powershell-core" package, but that gives dependency issue. I have checked on the portal and their are update with its dependency.

pauby commented 2 months ago

Did you 'Try it with Chocolatey CLI directly and see if you get the same results'?

gurupreet18121990 commented 2 months ago

hello @pauby I was able to install PowerShell Core by first installing the missing dependency via the CLI (command-line interface). While this is a workaround, I'm interested in knowing if there are any alternative solutions to avoid the dependency issue altogether.

pauby commented 2 months ago

There were issues with the site last week which could have caused this. These were resolved. Thats why I asked if you could try again to run directly using Chocolatey CLI.

Im unable to reproduce the issue. Without that there isn't anything we can 'fix'.

gurupreet18121990 commented 2 months ago

I am trying with Ansible logic, which is failing with below error. Do they still have issue with their website ?

Ansible logic:

Is this still relevant? If so, what is blocking it? Is there anything you can do to help move it forward? This issue will be closed in 14 days if it continues to be inactive.

gurupreet18121990 commented 1 month ago

We are good to close it. The issue was with the older version of the Chocolatey in the windows image, I have created a script which removed the chocolately older version and installs the newer version.

Based on this comment I'll close this issue.
