Having a wonderful time with all the hard work you guys have put in to ansible-bedrock and all the other projects that have emerged … with you since the get go … o.g. roots … so first things first THANKS GUYS! And now to the issue at hand … I got my vagrant up, then I got my provision on and all i…

What does your directory structure look like? It if looks like this; / -ansible -site I think you’ll need to add subtree: site to your group_vars/production and/or staging.

Yes, my directory structure is as such … it’s set up exactly like the roots example project … I’ll give that a go

Thanks Poggen that did it … I checked that file for comparison too before I ran the deploy and somehow missed that … ( someone needs thicker glasses … heh )

I fear I might be losing my mind … previously when this got resolved I had checked my group_vars/production against the one on the example project site and realized that the example project did in fact have the subtree: site in it and mine ( cloned from ansible repo ) did not, so, I added it and all…

@swalkinshaw explained the way subtree works in another thread : [image] Best practice for Trellis with multiple sites subtree is only needed if the root of a Git repo is not “Bedrock” itself". (ie: your git repo starts with subfolders like ansible and site).

That’s what I thought … and the project example is set up this way too … hence when you answered my initial question with this info I went to the project example and verified that the subtree: site directive was in fact in the example project’s group_vars/production file … this is why I am so confus…

subtree: site is still in the example repo .

Well that answers that then … I am crazy … that’s twice I’ve done that now … I actually said to myself "self, you know you missed this before … are you sure you’re not looking at the ansible repo instead of the example project repo … I seriously checked so many times and still managed to be comparin…

I removed subtree from my local dev group_vars because I don’t think it has any relevance there … correct me if I’m wrong … otherwise, just consider this ancient history :wink:

subtree is only used for deployments so it can be left out whenever you aren’t deploying (like in development for example).
