Error handling guide
wow that would be extremely kind of you!! im based in spain. im just one hour ahead of you. PMing you my google address
Ok, where in the world are you?
I have time on a Tuesday evening UK time from 8pm where you could join me over Google meet, if that would be of help

as a reminder: this is run (unsuccessfully) through ansible web-ui
while that could be an issue, im confused the same setup was able to run a (simplier) nother playbook

copy:

dest: /usr/local/share/ca-certificates/root_ca.crt

- name: Update CA certificates
command: update-ca-certificates
register: ca_update
im not making sense of this
Might have found your issue, please remove all delegate_to lines. That's not how it works
Well I can't see either docker or my missed named php file in that, so would concur that it's not working.
Your playbooks look to be run as root, so it should have placed a file or 2.
Will re-read all the comments and see if I can spot anything
thank you very much for your continued support!
i am not sure which file you are referring to. this is tree from /etc/apt:
root@anytype:/etc/apt# tree
.
|-- apt.conf.d
| |-- 01autoremove
| |-- 20listchanges
| `-- 70debconf
|-- auth.conf.d
|-- keyrings
|-- listchanges.conf
|-- listchanges.conf.d

|-- debian-archive-bullseye-stable.asc
|-- debian-archive-trixie-automatic.asc
|-- debian-archive-trixie-security-automatic.asc
`-- debian-archive-trixie-stable.asc
its been clear for awhile now that the script is doing pretty much nothing: because, as you can see: even the keyrings directory is empty, so its not even able the repo, hence it cant find docker-ce. im not sure where it fails. if downloading the asc file, dearmoring, adding repo..
as you can see im running as root by the way, so no need to become.
how do you suggest i debug this? sorry for my total lack of knowledge.
How very odd, as root can you try some things?
- Can you cat the apt config? File is /etc/apt/sources.d/php not sure of the file extension, but should have the config to collect docker
Also if you run apt install docker-ce does it give you any better errors?
docker_pre_apks:
- apt-transport-https
- ca-certificates
- curl
- gnupg2
- libssl-dev
- python3-cffi-backend

still same result :(

i have NO idea what i am doing wrong. this is new to me. but i personally learn better with practical examples rather than reading books and documentation. i thought setting up docker was simple enough to begin... i guess i was wrong.
Oh, thats very odd. Have tested on lxc and runs fine, the only thing I can see that could trip it up is the list of packages.
docker_pre_apks:
- apt-transport-https
- ca-certificates
- curl
- gnupg2
- libssl-dev
- python3-cffi-backend
- python3-pip
- libffi-dev
- python3-setuptools
- python3-nacl
- python3-jsondiff
docker_apks:
- docker-ce
- docker-ce-cli
- containerd.io
i dont see how, i have been doing this: https://www.manelrodero.com/blog/docker-en-proxmox-lxc-con-turnkey-core on maaany lxcs and they all work just fine!
oh, could be the lxc is a bit odd. Could you try a full VM?
thanks for sharing! and this works for you? as i said on my original post (on selfhosted channel), im new at ansible and i must be doing something stupid.

it was a brand new host. the first (this above) playbook worked, but then the docker one didnt. so it doesnt seem to be a target host issue. both debian 13 lxc if that matters.
Adding here incase you dont see my reply
Check this out 👉 https://github.com/mhzawadi/ansible-template/tree/main/roles/docker
This is the role I use to setup docker, check out the readme for how to use
Like this: https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/standalone/roles/ ?
what is it your after?
