Rundeck 2.5.1 - No matched nodes on locally executed job

I'm working with Rundeck v2.5.1 and I'm trying to configure a job which is executed locally. The job runs an inline script which runs another script. When I run the job (as admin), it seems as though Rundeck doesn't run any of the inline script. Here is the output from the job:

com.dtolabs.rundeck.core.NodesetEmptyException: No matched nodes: MultiNodeSelector{nodenames=[localhost]}
 at com.dtolabs.rundeck.core.execution.workflow.NodeFirstWorkflowStrategy.validateNodeSet(NodeFirstWorkflowStrategy.java:341)
 at com.dtolabs.rundeck.core.execution.workflow.NodeFirstWorkflowStrategy.executeWorkflowImpl(NodeFirstWorkflowStrategy.java:84)

 at com.dtolabs.rundeck.core.execution.WorkflowExecutionServiceThread.run(WorkflowExecutionServiceThread.java:55)
Exception: class com.dtolabs.rundeck.core.NodesetEmptyException: No matched nodes: MultiNodeSelector{nodenames=[localhost]}
No matched nodes: MultiNodeSelector{nodenames=[localhost]}

also, here is the admin.aclpolicy (/etc/rundeck/admin.aclpolicy)

Rundeck is running on an EC2 instance in a VPC. The instance is running ubuntu 14.04.2 lts. After connecting to the instance via ssh, I can successfully curl Rundeck.

$ curl -I -L localhost:4440

I've been looking around here and other groups/places but I haven't really been able to find anything that matches up with what I'm experiencing and the Rundeck version.

Has anyone using Rundeck 2.5.1 seen this type of error before/know how I can get this job running?

Solution 1:

I just ran in to the exact same problem. I got it working by enabling

Include Server Node: Yes

in your main Resource Model Source under your project configuration.

Solution 2:

Please monitor /var/log/rundeck/rundeck.audit.log file for a while to get the right reason. It would give you more clues. Most likely your problem is similar to the one described below.

I've faced this problem with job created from API. The thing with rundeck is that it has separate ACL policy for API tokens, which don't really rely on groups of users issuing API tokens. This was out of common sense and a bit surprising, but nevertheless, i've got it working. If the problem setting is the same (job created from API), then try looking at /etc/rundeck/apitoken.aclpolicy and make sure that it has allow: [read,run] for node by api_token_group.

Solution 3:

I had to add Local to the Node Sources in Project Settings.
