'postgresql_packages' is undefined

[mgifford]

I'm not sure why I am getting this error when I run $ vagrant provision:

TASK [geerlingguy.postgresql : Ensure PostgreSQL packages are installed.] ******
fatal: [drupalvm]: FAILED! => {"failed": true, "msg": "'postgresql_packages' is undefined"}

I can't find a solid reference to 'postgresql_packages', but have made sure that postgresql is installed:
$ brew install postgresql

It seems to be running:
$ brew services start postgresql
Service postgresql already started, use brew services restart postgresql to restart.

Where should this be defined?

This is on a Mac (obviously), but not sure where to go from here. It was running find the last time I used DrupalVM. Just did an update and now am rather stuck.

@mgifford - This would be inside the VM itself... but there shouldn't be a condition when using Drupal VM where that variable isn't defined—you're using Vagrant and building a VM using one of the geerlingguy/* boxes, correct?

Here's the task in the Ansible role that defines the packages: https://github.com/geerlingguy/ansible-role-postgresql/blob/3cb4aaaa53b32a0a0df113db19777d4a72afcd83/tasks/variables.yml#L11-L14

Do you have something like postgresql_packages: [] in your config.yml?

[mgifford]

1. Thanks again for being amazing.

2. I'm going to build this again with one of the geerlingguy/* boxes in the morning and will let you know.

3. This is an older instance I'm building on. I'm pretty sure I haven't added anything special to the config.yml but will look.

Same issue. Upgraded from 3.2 or older version of DrupalVM. Had to figure out how to upgrade Ansible, no mention of that in "breaking changes". But can't find workaround for this issue.

I have the same issue, running the 14.04 vm

See: geerlingguy/ansible-role-postgresql#7

Fixed upstream, going to fix by updating role deps here.

[mgifford]

Progress. I'm getting different errors now.

I ran vagrant box update

I made that ansible is at 2.2.0.0

I've updated the git repo for drupalvm

GitHub doesn't seem to like the long lines. Full report here - http://pastebin.com/ezBwqzfS

Seems the problem boils down to "The requested package drupal/devel could not be found in any version".

For anyone looking for a fix to the original problem here... basically the solution is to update DrupalVM to 3.5.1. It doesn't look like there was ever an upstream "fix" to Ansible.

I think the long lines are fine, but maybe it is hard to tell because your browser does not show a scrollbar unless you are actively scrolling. Is this a "feature" of recent versions of macOS?
