Invalid command 'ProxyPassMatch'

[robdecker]

During a new build, I get the following error:

NOTIFIED: [geerlingguy.apache | restart apache] *******************************
failed: [ddvm] => {"failed": true}
msg: Output of config test was:
AH00526: Syntax error on line 14 of /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/vhosts.conf:
Invalid command 'ProxyPassMatch', perhaps misspelled or defined by a module not included in the server configuration
Action 'configtest' failed.
The Apache error log may have more information.


FATAL: all hosts have already failed -- aborting

The relevant portion from config.yml:

apache_vhosts:
  - servername: "thesite.dev"
    serveralias: "www.thesite.dev"
    documentroot: "/var/www/thesite"
    extra_parameters: |

If you're running from master and have Ansible installed locally, make sure you have force updated all the Ansible Galaxy roles using the command in the README.

[robdecker]

I have updated Ansible using $ sudo ansible-galaxy install -r provisioning/requirements.yml --force and have updated the box as well. Could the serveralias be the issue?

[geerlingguy]

It shouldn't be; what OS are you using?

Host OS is OS X 10.11.2 and the vagrant box is geerlingguy/ubuntu1404

[robdecker]

And no, serveralias does not affect the error above.

[geerlingguy]

Can you do a diff of your config.yml vs example.config.yml and see if there might be some other parameter missing? I'm going to re-test everything on a separate OSX Install.

[robdecker]

Never mind. Re-downloaded the repo and all is well.

[geerlingguy]

Nice! Glad you could get it working.

[ptsimard]

I have the exact same problem.

start rant:

I'm really struggling getting drupal-vm to run correctly after VDD decided to bomb on me. drupal-vm seemed like the logical choice but it's been a huge pain to get it to work.

• I'm on Windows 10 with latest vagrant 1.8.1 (that I had to patch manually following random github issues to get it to even run.)
• After hours of figuring winnfs I found a github issue about adding mount_options: ['vers=3'] to the config file, that worked
• and now this... I'm stumped.

@ptsimard another issue with the same error message is #394 (comment). Do you have the lines in playbook.yml and requirements.yml mentioned?

[geerlingguy]

@ptsimard - Believe me, I know your pain... the problem here is that Windows 7... to 8... to 10—every release had a HUGE number of breaking changes that broke parts of VirtualBox... parts of Vagrant... etc. On the Mac, and on most Linux distros, it has been effortless to support 10.7, 8, 9, 10, 11, Fedora 20, 21, 22, 23, Ubuntu 14, 15, (soon) 16, Arch, etc.

The problem is Windows is currently somewhat a second class citizen in many different ways—I think Drupal VM is one of the very few VM projects that is fully tested on a Windows 10 laptop (and Fedora, Ubuntu, Mac OS X) before every single release.

And in this case, the release (2.2.0) worked flawlessly. Then Ansible 2.0.0 was released, and Vagrant had a bug that made it's new (in 1.8.0) ansible_local provisioner start breaking. So now I'm (im)patiently awaiting Vagrant's 1.8.2 release, because most people don't have the time/inclination to patch Vagrant on Windows or install the dev version (instead of 1.8.1, which is broken).

Anyways... long story short, this is a well known bug, and the fix in this case—does your provisioning/playbook.yml contain the following line?

  - { role: geerlingguy.apache-php-fpm, when: drupalvm_webserver == 'apache' }

Also, are you updated to the latest release of Drupal VM (e.g. master), or are you on 2.2.0?

[ptsimard]

Hey tanks for the fast reply!

Yes I have that line and I am running the master from 2 days ago (what the main download button on drupalvm.com is pointing to).

So I'm actually using the vm right now but I don't know what might be broken since the provisioning does not complete.

[geerlingguy]

@ptsimard - At what point does provisioning fail - can you copy out the error message(s) or screenshot it at the point where it fails?

Ansible failed to complete successfully. Any error output should be
visible above. Please fix these errors and try again.

it returns to command prompt there

[geerlingguy]

@ptsimard - Ah... in this case, the problem is that the next role (which would actually install the proper apache mod) isn't being run. Two options:

1. vagrant destroy to delete the VM then vagrant up from scratch.
2. Add two more items to the apache_mods_enabled list in config.yml and then vagrant provision again (so it would read like below).

apache_mods_enabled:
  - expires.load
  - ssl.load
  - rewrite.load
  - proxy.load
  - proxy_fcgi.load

[ptsimard]

Tried option 2:

it stopped there:

[geerlingguy]

Uh... TypeError: 'in <string>' requires string as left operand, not int

I've not seen that one before, though it indicates Python is trying to perform an operation with an expected string, but an integer was used instead. Do you have drush_version set to master in your config.yml? Are these settings the same?

drush_version: master
drush_keep_updated: true

[ptsimard]

oh I had that set to 7. made it master now, will see

[ptsimard]

it completed! so if I wanted drush to be 7 it needs to be quoted?

Thanks for the debugging!

[geerlingguy]

Yeah; that's not entirely intuitive—it refers to a git branch name, tag, or commit hash, so it should be a string.
