Turn on verbose debugging for algo

[GeYebo]

Hi,

I tried to spin up a new algo server the other day on digital ocean and the scripts seem to hang after reaching "Configure the server and install required software". I was wondering how one could increase verbosity so that I can see what is happening. I ran the scripts two weeks ago and everything worked so I don't have any obvious reasons at hand for this change in behavior.

Thanks!

You can increase the verbosity of Ansible by adding -v, -vv, or even -vvv to the ./algo command line but that doesn't usually tell you more about what's currently happening on the server side.

I was just now able to deploy successfully to DigitalOcean NYC3, though it took about 5 minutes to get past PLAY [Configure the server and install required software]. I think at that point it's the next step that's running, TASK [Wait until the cloud-init completed], which includes downloading and installing many updated packages and can take a while, but shouldn't hang.

Thanks! Whatever it was, the problem was transitory and I managed to spin up a new vpn the other day.
