Reboots not working in Ansible 2

[joux3]

setup.yml playbook successfully calls raspi-config to change the root partition size. However, for the change to work the device must be rebooted. The firstrun.sh should probably also take care of that? Or do some mounting magic. Your thoughts?

[hkapanen]

Current system should reboot at the end of the 'setup.yml', as 'expand_filesystem' notifies 'reboot'. Then again, I have a slightly related issue where password change makes authentication fail and palybook gets interrupted and no reboot...

Can you provide logs?

You are correct. Probably an ansible 2.x related issue? For now I'll just switch to older Ansible.

Logs at the default level (I can run more verbose logging if 2.x is ever to be supported):

marinepi-provisioning $ ./firstrun.sh 192.168.0.14

According to the Ansible issue tracker this should be fixed in 2.1 (but look at notes in the issue).

Thanks @epleterte for the comment. See also https://github.com/ansible/ansible/issues/15117#issuecomment-226934783

Have you verified this yourself, maybe have a playbook to demonstrate?

Hello,

I'm a beginner with Pi, and trying to install a MarinePi as instructed. So far, managed to get the Pi install running, install Ansible and create an SSH key on my own macbook. But it seems to have an issue with the install after that:

`MacBook-Pro-de-Nicolas:marinepi Nicolas$ ./firstrun.sh 192.168.1.117 SSH password: Enter new password:

PLAY [all] *****

TASK [setup] *** ok: [192.168.1.117]

PLAY RECAP ***** 192.168.1.117 : ok=7 changed=2 unreachable=0 failed=0 `

Any idea? thank you

The reboot handler is not working properly, but everything is probably ok if you can ssh to your Pi and you can continue the provisioning.

PS. For quicker troubleshooting you might want to join Signal K Slack at http://slack-invite.signalk.org/

A reboot module was introduced to Ansible 2.7. See PR #78 addressing this.
