Question: Local testing setup

[kirillt]

Today I was trying to build and run wire-server on my local machine.
I walked through this guide: https://docs.wire.com/how-to/install/kubernetes.html
Option 2 was my choice. I created a "target" container for deployment with root password-less SSH-access.

It looks that the guide assumes the single target machine. But I couldn't pass this step (ran from inside of the docker container with all dependencies):

poetry run ansible-playbook -i hosts.ini kubernetes.yml -vv

The "target" container is debian-slim (I tried alpine as well, but apparently it is not supported).
The SSH-access is not a problem, I verified it. The errors are weird and change sometime.
Either lock of dpkg, or complaining that it is impossible to gain root privileges (with root SSH-login!).

It feels for me like simultaneous Ansible jobs are conflicting with each other.
Is single-node deployment really supported?

The sequence of steps to reproduce:
1. Run debian-based docker container with ssh accepting root by key (without password).
I also installed sudo in the target container, although there is only root user.

For verification I do this:

ssh [email protected] -p 2222 -i ssh/id_ed25519 -o "UserKnownHostsFile /dev/null"

This results in that I get into the container.

2. Preparation steps described in "Option 2" here: https://docs.wire.com/how-to/install/kubernetes.html

File hosts.ini is modified to also contain port number 2222 for SSH.

sed -i 's/X.X.X.X/127.0.0.1 ansible_port=2222/g' hosts.ini

3. Inside of the "deployment" container I do this:

cd wire-server-deploy/ansible/
poetry run ansible-playbook -i hosts.ini kubernetes.yml -vv

This works about 30 seconds and results in errors like this:

Does it mean that parallel jobs overlap? Does it mean I can't deploy to a single machine?
The tutorial emphasizes that it is about deployment "on a single virtual machine".
Is there a difference if I choose a virtual machine or just a container?
