fix(deploy): enable rendered nginx sites on self-update, not just full provision by mrveiss · Pull Request #16980 · mrveiss/AutoBot-AI

Thinking Path

Issue #16979's root cause: roles/slm_manager/tasks/nginx_site.yml renders the SLM site into sites-available/, but the steps that make it live (stat sites-enabled, replace a non-symlink file, link it) lived only in roles/slm_manager/tasks/main.yml (lines 995-1019 before this PR) — reachable on a full provision, never from the self-update playbooks, which include only nginx_site.yml via tasks_from. So a node whose sites-enabled/autobot-slm was a stale regular file kept serving a frozen config forever, exactly as observed on the live install.

The fix is mechanical once stated: move render and enable into the same file. But AC5 asks to check every other nginx site the playbooks render, and that check found a second, identically-shaped instance already live in the tree — roles/frontend/tasks/code_only.yml renders sites-available/autobot-frontend on self-update (update-all-nodes.yml PLAY 2, tasks_from: code_only), and the enable step for that site also lived only in roles/frontend/tasks/main.yml. Same bug, same fix, same file.

Widening the check further (AC4's own guard, run against the whole ansible/ tree while writing it) surfaced a third: playbooks/provision-fleet-roles.yml Phase 4c re-renders the SLM site's content for the co-located-frontend case, and depends on a symlink established by an earlier, separate playbook run (deploy-slm-manager.yml) that this fix does not otherwise guarantee ran recently. Rather than special-case it out of the guard, I brought it under the same guarantee — same shape, same fix, same file, per Rule 6.

roles/backend/tasks/main.yml's autobot-backend.conf site was the fourth candidate and turned out not exposed to the self-update reachability gap: its render and enable tasks are adjacent in the same file, and neither self-update playbook ever re-renders that vhost through any tasks_from split — there is no seam that could separate them. It still had no non-symlink handling at all though, and the review below asked for the same hardening there too (see Review Response).

What Changed

AC1/AC2/AC3 — roles/slm_manager/tasks/nginx_site.yml (autobot-slm-backend/ansible/roles/slm_manager/tasks/nginx_site.yml:41-116): after the existing template task, added stat → conditional backup-and-move → symlink → stat → assert. A non-symlink sites-enabled/{{ slm_nginx_config }} is moved to sites-available/{{ slm_nginx_config }}.enabled-backup.<mtime> (outside sites-enabled/, so nginx never loads it as a second site) instead of being deleted. The final ansible.builtin.assert checks stat.islnk and stat.lnk_source (realpath) against the sites-available path and fails the play with a clear message if the link is wrong. roles/slm_manager/tasks/main.yml:988-1003 now only includes nginx_site.yml — the three duplicated tasks (stat/remove/link, lines 995-1019 before this PR) are gone from there. Tags and the test nginx config/reload nginx notifies are preserved on the render task and added to the new enable task, so nginx -t runs against the file nginx actually serves once the link is fixed, not before.

AC5, part 1 — roles/frontend/tasks/code_only.yml (autobot-slm-backend/ansible/roles/frontend/tasks/code_only.yml:40-100): identical shape applied to sites-available/autobot-frontend. roles/frontend/tasks/main.yml:292-297 dropped its now-duplicated "Enable nginx site" task; the co-location disable branch (main.yml, "Disable standalone nginx when co-located with SLM") is untouched.

AC5, part 2 — playbooks/provision-fleet-roles.yml:509-565: Phase 4c's co-located re-render gained the same stat/backup/link/assert sequence, gated on the same _is_slm_frontend_colocated flag as the surrounding tasks. The play's existing test nginx config/reload nginx tasks (direct command/systemd, not handler-notify — this play has no role handlers file) now also fire when the new link task changes.

AC5, part 3 — not exposed to the reachability gap, hardened anyway (see Review Response): roles/backend/tasks/main.yml (autobot-backend.conf). Render and enable are adjacent in the same file and self-update never re-renders this vhost via a tasks_from split — env_only, unit_only, and npu_workers_cleanup are the only slices delivered that way — so there was never a self-update seam here. The two standalone one-off playbooks that also touch nginx sites (playbooks/deploy-nginx-proxy.yml:45-57, playbooks/deploy-native-services.yml:53-60 — via copy: content:, not template:) already co-locate render and enable in the same file and needed no change.

AC4 — repo_tests/nginx_sites_enabled_link_enforced_16979_test.py (new, extended per review): a static guard, no ansible run involved. It scans every roles/*/tasks/*.yml and playbooks/*.yml for a template/copy task whose dest starts with /etc/nginx/sites-available/, and asserts the same file also contains an ansible.builtin.file: state: link task pointing the matching basename into sites-enabled/. A vacuity floor (_KNOWN_RENDER_SITE_FLOOR = 6) asserts the scan actually reaches all six known render sites. A negative-control test builds a synthetic task file that renders without linking and asserts the checker flags it; a positive-control test proves the same checker passes a correctly-linked synthetic file. This guard is exactly what caught the Phase 4c gap above during development — see the loop in "Verification". The review response added a second guard to this same file for handler ordering (see below).

Changelog: changelog/unreleased/16979-nginx-sites-enabled-self-update.md.

AC6 — deliberately not done here. Host evidence (sites-enabled/autobot-slm is a symlink, served root is current, orchestration page shows Redis running) can only come from a real deployment through the builtin updater, after merge. Left unticked below; no host, /etc/nginx, or /opt/autobot was touched to produce it.

Review Response

Blocking, fixed — autobot-slm-backend/ansible/roles/frontend/handlers/main.yml listed restart nginx (a reload, state: reloaded) before test nginx config. Confirmed: ansible runs notified handlers in definition order, not notify order, so the frontend enable task added by this PR (which notifies both) would have reloaded nginx before nginx -t ever validated it — roles/slm_manager/handlers/main.yml already had this right (test, then reload); frontend did not.

Fix: reordered frontend/handlers/main.yml:15-23 so test nginx config is defined first. No failed_when/ignore_errors on that handler, so a failing nginx -t already fails the handler task and aborts the play for that host before any later handler — including the reload — runs; the reorder alone restores "a failing test stops the reload," no other code change needed.
Guard: extended repo_tests/nginx_sites_enabled_link_enforced_16979_test.py with test_nginx_test_handler_precedes_reload_in_every_role — scans every roles/*/handlers/main.yml, and for any role defining both a nginx -t test handler and an nginx reload/restart handler, asserts the test handler's index precedes the reload handler's. Vacuity floor (>= 20 of the 27 handler files in the tree) plus a negative control (reload-before-test flagged), a positive control (test-before-reload passes), and a third control proving a role with only a reload handler — roles/backend's actual shape, which validates via an ordinary task instead — is correctly left unflagged. Ran the checker against the pre-fix git show content of frontend/handlers/main.yml and confirmed it reports the exact violation the review found.

Small, both fixed in the same commit:

The three when: [stat.exists, not stat.islnk] backup-task conditions (nginx_site.yml, code_only.yml, provision-fleet-roles.yml) now read not (<var>.stat.islnk | default(false)), standing on their own instead of relying on when: list short-circuit order. Read ansible-core==2.17.14's own stat.py (the installed version here matches constraints/ansible-core.txt, the pinned fleet version) to check the premise: default follow: false uses lstat, so islnk is in fact already defined (True) for a dangling symlink, and ansible's list when: does evaluate items in order with an early return on the first False (Conditional.evaluate_conditional_with_result) — so the original order was not actively wrong for the cases traced, but the rewrite removes the dependency on both entirely either way, exactly as asked, with no behavior change.
roles/backend/tasks/main.yml's "Enable vhost (symlink)" had no non-symlink handling. Added the same stat → backup-outside-sites-enabled → link → stat → assert sequence used by the other three sites, now at roles/backend/tasks/main.yml:1429-1494. This closes a full-re-provision hard-fail risk (a stale regular file would previously make state: link error out), not a self-update silent-staleness gap — backend's render+enable were already reachable together on every path.

Round 2 — approved with nits. Both applied in the same commit.

Medium, fixed — the round-1 handler-order guard globbed only roles/*/handlers/main.yml, so a play-level handlers: block (defined directly inside a playbook, not a role) was invisible to it. Confirmed: autobot-slm-backend/ansible/migrate-grafana-to-vm.yml:406-409 defines its own reload nginx handler with no test handler in that same list — safe today only because an ordinary nginx -t task ("Proxy | Test nginx configuration", :363) runs earlier in the same play, entirely outside handlers:, and force_handlers is unset anywhere in the tree.
- Fix: none needed in that file — it was already safe, just unguarded.
- Guard: added test_play_level_nginx_reload_handlers_are_safely_ordered to repo_tests/nginx_sites_enabled_link_enforced_16979_test.py. It sweeps every *.yml under autobot-slm-backend/ansible (not only roles//playbooks/) for a play with its own handlers: list containing an nginx reload/restart handler, and accepts either of the two mechanisms actually used in the tree: a preceding test handler in the same handlers: list, or an ordinary, non-handler nginx -t task anywhere in that play's own task list (handlers fire only once every task in the play has run, so such a task always precedes the reload regardless of its position relative to whichever task notified it). Vacuity floor (>= 100 *.yml files reached), a negative control (reload handler alone, no test handler and no task — flagged), and two positive controls, one per safety mechanism. While writing it, the sweep also found playbooks/deploy-nginx-proxy.yml:134-138 defines its own reload nginx handler the same way — safe via the same task-based route (:64-66), not called out by the review but caught by the same guard.
Low, fixed — roles/nginx/handlers/main.yml:4-14 defined Reload nginx/Restart nginx with nothing notifying either anywhere in the tree. Per the no-debris rule, not deleted: added a Test nginx config handler before both, so they're safe the day something does notify one — same fix as round 1's frontend fix. The existing role-level guard (test_nginx_test_handler_precedes_reload_in_every_role) now also exercises this role; its floor was bumped from >= 2 to >= 3 roles with both handler kinds to match.

New head SHA: 20c46a820bd4d80388c13d0453cb12d87f4574ab.

This guard is also how the Phase 4c gap in provision-fleet-roles.yml was found during the original implementation: after fixing nginx_site.yml and code_only.yml, the link-enforcement test initially failed with exactly one gap at that file — not a design decision made in advance. Likewise, running the round-1 handler-order checker against the pre-fix frontend/handlers/main.yml content (via git show on the prior head, not the working tree) reproduces the exact violation that review reported. The round-2 play-level checker independently confirmed both real instances (migrate-grafana-to-vm.yml, deploy-nginx-proxy.yml) as safe via the task-based route — printed directly, not just asserted: migrate-grafana-to-vm.yml "Grafana Migration - Update SLM Server Proxy" -> None and playbooks/deploy-nginx-proxy.yml "Deploy nginx reverse proxy for AutoBot backend (.20)" -> None.

$ python3 -m pytest repo_tests/ -k ansible -q
187 passed, 3545 deselected, 1 xfailed

No regressions in the existing ansible-wiring guards (sync_deletions_ansible_wiring_16310_test.py and others), which independently read several of the same files this PR modifies.

All modified YAML files parse cleanly via yaml.safe_load. All local runs are a design aid only, per this issue's instructions — no playbook was run, and no host, /etc/nginx, or /opt/autobot was touched. CI is the evidence for the YAML/guard correctness; a post-merge deployment through the builtin updater is the evidence for AC6.

Acceptance criteria

AC1 — render and enable live together in nginx_site.yml; main.yml includes it unchanged. roles/slm_manager/tasks/nginx_site.yml:41-116, roles/slm_manager/tasks/main.yml:988-1003.
AC2 — non-symlink sites-enabled file moved to a timestamped backup under sites-available/, never deleted, never left in sites-enabled/. nginx_site.yml:69-83.
AC3 — ansible.builtin.assert after linking checks islnk and lnk_source (realpath) against the sites-available path, fails the play with a clear message otherwise. test nginx config handler validates the correct file because the link is fixed before it fires, and (per review) is now guaranteed to run before any reload in every role that has both. nginx_site.yml:106-118.
AC4 — repo_tests/nginx_sites_enabled_link_enforced_16979_test.py: link-enforcement guard, role-level handler-order guard, and play-level handler-order guard (added round 2), each with its own vacuity floor and negative/positive controls.
AC5 — frontend site brought under the same guarantee (code_only.yml:40-100); co-located re-render brought under the same guarantee (provision-fleet-roles.yml:509-565); backend autobot-backend.conf documented as not exposed to the reachability gap, hardened for non-symlink handling anyway (roles/backend/tasks/main.yml:1418-1494).
AC6 — host evidence after deployment through the builtin updater. Not done in this PR; needs a post-merge self-update run and cannot be produced without touching a live host, which this session was told not to do.

Summary by CodeRabbit

Bug Fixes
- Fixed self-updates so rendered Nginx sites are consistently enabled and linked correctly.
- Existing invalid site entries are backed up before being replaced.
- Added verification to detect incorrect or unresolved site links.
- Nginx configuration is now tested before reloads, preventing reloads when validation fails.
Tests
- Added automated checks to ensure every rendered site has a matching enabled link and that validation occurs before reloads.
Documentation
- Added an unreleased changelog entry for the Nginx self-update fix.

…l provision (#16979) roles/slm_manager/tasks/nginx_site.yml and roles/frontend/tasks/code_only.yml rendered a fresh nginx site into sites-available/ on every self-update, but the steps that made it live (detect a non-symlink sites-enabled entry, back it up, link, verify) lived only in each role's main.yml -- reachable on a full provision, never on the self-update playbooks that include only the render task file. A node whose sites-enabled entry was a stale regular file kept serving a frozen config indefinitely, silently, while sites-available kept advancing. playbooks/provision-fleet-roles.yml's co-located re-render had the identical shape. Render and enable now live in the same task file for all three sites, each asserting afterward that sites-enabled resolves to the rendered file and failing loudly if it does not. A non-symlink sites-enabled file is moved to a timestamped backup beside the sites-available/ backups, never deleted and never left inside sites-enabled/ (nginx loads every file there). Adds repo_tests/nginx_sites_enabled_link_enforced_16979_test.py: a guard that scans every roles/*/tasks/*.yml and playbooks/*.yml for a render into sites-available/ and asserts the same file also links it into sites-enabled/, with a vacuity floor and a negative control.

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The Ansible deployment paths now repair stale nginx site entries, create and verify sites-enabled links, and validate nginx before reloads. Static tests enforce render-and-link pairing and handler ordering across the Ansible tree.

Changes

Nginx site enablement

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Frontend, backend, and co-location enablement `autobot-slm-backend/ansible/playbooks/provision-fleet-roles.yml`, `autobot-slm-backend/ansible/roles/frontend/...`, `autobot-slm-backend/ansible/roles/backend/tasks/main.yml`	Provisioning backs up non-symlink entries, creates the expected nginx links, verifies their targets, and triggers nginx validation and reloads when links change.
SLM self-update repair `autobot-slm-backend/ansible/roles/slm_manager/tasks/...`	SLM self-update now owns site activation, backs up non-symlink entries, creates the expected link, and verifies its target.
Nginx handler ordering `autobot-slm-backend/ansible/roles/frontend/handlers/main.yml`	The frontend handlers run `nginx -t` before the nginx reload handler.
Static enablement guard and release record `repo_tests/nginx_sites_enabled_link_enforced_16979_test.py`, `changelog/unreleased/16979-nginx-sites-enabled-self-update.md`	Static tests enforce matching render and link tasks, handler ordering, and positive and negative controls. The unreleased changelog records the fix.

Priority: ⬇️ Low

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Change: Bug fix

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 2855e

Some nginx changes can still reload without validation, and the regression guard can accept an incorrect link. These issues and the required path consolidation should be resolved before merge.

…ink checks (#16979) Review finding on PR #16980, blocking: roles/frontend/handlers/main.yml defined restart nginx (a reload) before test nginx config. Ansible runs notified handlers in definition order, not notify order, so the enable task added by this issue's own fix -- which notifies both -- would reload nginx before nginx -t ever validated it. roles/slm_manager/handlers/main.yml already had this right; frontend did not. Reordered so the test always runs first; a failing nginx -t now fails that handler and aborts the play before any later handler (including the reload) runs, needing no other code change. Also, small: - The three existing `when: [stat.exists, not stat.islnk]` backup guards relied on list short-circuit order rather than standing on their own; rewritten as `not (<var>.stat.islnk | default(false))` everywhere. - roles/backend/tasks/main.yml's "Enable vhost (symlink)" had no non-symlink handling at all, unlike the three sites this issue already covers -- a stale regular file there would hard-fail a full re-provision. Given the same stat/backup-outside-sites-enabled/link/assert treatment for consistency, even though backend's render+enable were already reachable together (no self-update tasks_from split exists for this vhost). Extends repo_tests/nginx_sites_enabled_link_enforced_16979_test.py: a new guard asserts that in every role whose handlers define both a `nginx -t` test handler and an nginx reload/restart handler, the test handler comes first, with a vacuity floor and a negative + positive control.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Notify the validation handler from both nginx-removal tasks.

When either removal changes a file, it queues only restart nginx. The co-location task runs when slm_colocated_frontend is true. The default-site task is unconditional. Handler definition order does not queue test nginx config, so these workflows reload nginx without the required validation. An invalid remaining configuration can make the reload fail or leave the removed site active.

Add test nginx config before restart nginx to both notification lists.

Use one configurable SSOT for the nginx site directories.

All four nginx activation workflows hard-code the sites-available and sites-enabled paths for rendering, repair, linking, and verification. This violates the YAML path contract.

Define shared directory variables in inventory/group_vars/all.yml. Derive their fallbacks from autobot.base_dir, while preserving explicit overrides. Use these variables in all four workflows:

autobot-slm-backend/ansible/roles/slm_manager/tasks/nginx_site.yml

Match the symlink source as well as the destination.

_has_matching_enable_link compares only destination basenames. A state: link task with the expected destination basename but an unrelated src therefore passes. The current fixtures cover a correct link and no link, but not this incorrect-source case.

Retain each link's src and dest. Require src to match sites_available_dest, and add a negative control with a matching destination and an incorrect source.

✅ SSOT Configuration Compliance: Passing

🎉 No new hardcoded values of either class — ssot and other both block.

Known backlog in pipeline-scripts/hardcoded_values_baseline.txt is suppressed and tracked in #14371.

…nginx role handlers (#16979) Round-2 review finding on PR #16980, medium: the handler-order guard added last round only swept roles/*/handlers/main.yml, so a play-level handlers: block embedded directly in a playbook was invisible to it. migrate-grafana- to-vm.yml defines its own reload nginx handler with no paired test handler in that list -- safe today only because an ordinary nginx -t task runs earlier in the same play, outside handlers: entirely, a shape the role-scoped guard had no way to recognize. Extends repo_tests/nginx_sites_enabled_link_enforced_16979_test.py with a second guard that sweeps every *.yml under the ansible tree for a play-level handlers: block with its own nginx reload/restart handler, and accepts either safety mechanism found in the real tree: a preceding test handler in the same handlers: list, or an ordinary task-based `nginx -t` anywhere in the play's own task list (handlers fire only after every task in the play has run). Both migrate-grafana-to-vm.yml and playbooks/deploy-nginx- proxy.yml -- a second real instance found while writing this, not called out by the review -- are safe via the task-based route. Vacuity floor, a negative control, and a positive control for each of the two safety mechanisms. Round-2 review finding, low: roles/nginx/handlers/main.yml defined Reload nginx / Restart nginx with nothing notifying either anywhere in the tree. Per the no-debris rule they are not deleted; added a Test nginx config handler before both instead, so they are safe the day something does notify one -- the same fix already applied to roles/frontend/handlers/ main.yml last round. Now covered by the existing role-handler-order guard.
