Plone 5.2rc1 and Ansible playbook: ContextualVersionConflict zc.buildout

Plone Support Deployment & hosting
#1

I'm trying to fiddle with our Ansible playbook, specifically the plone_server role to get it to work with Plone 5.2rc1.

Looking for suggestions on how to address this error:

$ cat /usr/local/plone-5.2rc1/zeoserver/buildout.log
Getting distribution for 'setuptools==36.2'.
warning: no files found matching '*' under directory 'setuptools/_vendor'
Got setuptools 36.2.0.
While:
  Installing.
  Getting section zeoserver.
  Initializing section zeoserver.
  Loading zc.buildout recipe entry plone.recipe.zeoserver:default.

An internal error occurred due to a bug in either zc.buildout or in a
recipe being used:

That's after trying to pin

setuptools = 36.2
zc.buildout = 2.12.0

Thanks @petschki for asking in Gitter "did you bin/pip install -r requirements.txt before?"

I checked and it seems @smcmahon has the playbook using bin/pip install … on https://github.com/plone/ansible.plone_server/commits/master scroll down to May 25, 2018

This morning when I ran vagrant up I ran into an error caused when you save the VM's running state, so I deleted the saved state.

I also got a message about upgrading the virtual box,

==> bionic: Checking if box 'ubuntu/bionic64' version '20190307.0.0' is up to date...
==> bionic: A newer version of the box 'ubuntu/bionic64' is available and already
==> bionic: installed, but your Vagrant machine is running against
==> bionic: version '20190307.0.0'. To update to version '20190314.0.0',
==> bionic: destroy and recreate your machine.

so I dutifully did vagrant box update

...and am now getting “Ansible software could not be found”… sigh

==> bionic: Running provisioner: ansible...
Vagrant gathered an unknown Ansible version:


and falls back on the compatibility mode '1.8'.

Alternatively, the compatibility mode can be specified in your Vagrantfile:
https://www.vagrantup.com/docs/provisioning/ansible_common.html#compatibility_mode

    bionic: Running ansible-playbook...
The Ansible software could not be found! Please verify
that Ansible is correctly installed on your host system.

If you haven't installed Ansible yet, please install Ansible
on your host system. Vagrant can't do this for you in a safe and
automated way.
Please check https://docs.ansible.com for more information.

I had installed Ansible with bin/pip install ansible so I needed to add that bin directory to my PATH:

$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/Applications/VMware Fusion.app/Contents/Public
$ export PATH=$PATH:`pwd`/bin

...and then vagrant provision ran farther, until

Is the buildout using Python2.7?

#5

It is. Is it not possible to run Plone 5.2 on Python 2.7?

#6

Sure it is as you know.

#7

Then why is everyone giving me grief for doing so... is this the new shaming? :frowning:

#8

Shame! :joy:
