ISSUE TYPE

• Bug Report

COMPONENT NAME

- name: start registry
  community.docker.docker_compose:
    project_src: "{{ docker_compose_storage_path }}/registry/"

ANSIBLE VERSION

ansible 2.9.6
  config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg
  configured module search path = ['/home/eric/.ansible/plugins/modules', '/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules']
  ansible python module location = /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/ansible
  executable location = /usr/bin/ansible
  python version = 3.8.10 (default, Jun  2 2021, 10:49:15) [GCC 9.4.0]

COLLECTION VERSION

$ ansible-galaxy collection list community.docker
usage: ansible-galaxy collection [-h] COLLECTION_ACTION ...
ansible-galaxy collection: error: argument COLLECTION_ACTION: invalid choice: 'list' (choose from 'init', 'build', 'publish', 'install')

CONFIGURATION

# no output

OS / ENVIRONMENT

Ubuntu 20.04 on WSL. Pretty much vanilla

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

Run ansible-galaxy collection install community.docker:2.1.0

- name: start registry
  community.docker.docker_compose:
    project_src: "/docker/registry/"

Right now, down grading to community.docker == 2.0.2 works.

EXPECTED RESULTS

For it to start my docker-compose stack.

ACTUAL RESULTS

TASK [docker-registry : start registry] ********************************************************************************fatal: [internal]: FAILED! => {"msg": "Could not find imported module support code for version.  Looked for either LooseVersion.py or version.py"}

Please note that Ansible 2.9.6 is really old and has a lot of security issues and bugs that have been fixed in later 2.9.x releases.

In any case, this seems to be a problem with Ansible 2.9.x that was fixed in Ansible 2.9.20; 2.9.19 still produces the same error message.

[felixfontein]

This is probably related to ansible/ansible@f8caa43 (2.9.20); it was also backported to ansible-base 2.10 in ansible/ansible@5185255, which appeared in ansible-base 2.10.8.

@felixfontein
Thanks for pointing it out.
2.9.6 is the default version inside of the ubuntu 20.04 repositories.

I'll look in to how I can upgrade it to a more recent version.

hi @EricAtORS - you could try using the PPA for a more recent version - https://launchpad.net/~ansible/+archive/ubuntu/ansible

resolved_by_pr #269

[felixfontein]

I plan to create new releases once #269 has been merged. With these releases, the issue should be fixed.

[felixfontein]

community.docker 1.10.4 and 2.1.1 have been released which fix this issue.
