Initial provision does not boot mongod server, but second provision attempt does - does anyone know why?

Ubuntu 18.04 with defaults:

RUNNING HANDLER [mongodb restart] **********************************************
fatal: [my.secret.hostname]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Could not find the requested service mongod: host"}

NO MORE HOSTS LEFT *************************************************************

PLAY RECAP *********************************************************************
my.secret.hostname : ok=57   changed=42   unreachable=0    failed=1    skipped=10   rescued=0    ignored=0

Then when I try it again, it works fine and failed=0.

Here's some more verbose output, a slightly different warning message. Curious if @UnderGreen has seen this?

RUNNING HANDLER [wait when mongodb is started] *********************************
failed: [XX] (item=127.0.0.1) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "elapsed": 120, "item": "127.0.0.1", "msg": "Timeout when waiting for 127.0.0.1:27017"}
failed: [XX] (item=1.2.3.4) => {"ansible_loop_var": "item", "changed": false, "elapsed": 120, "item": "1.2.3.4", "msg": "Timeout when waiting for 1.2.3.4:27017"}

RUNNING HANDLER [mongodb restart] **********************************************

Second boot works fine. 1.2.3.4 is an actual IP, I just renamed it for privacy.

It seems like this is missing somewhere:

sudo systemctl enable mongod
sudo systemctl start mongod

Hi, you can try to use the fork of role
https://github.com/sportsru/ansible-role-mongodb
and maybe you should set mongodb_manage_systemd_unit: false by starting the installation again.

@MemberIT I just tried your fork. It does not work.

RUNNING HANDLER [wait when mongodb is started] *********************************
ok: [HIDDEN] => (item=127.0.0.1)

Stuck on this.

I think you need to use pymongo from pip, because pymongo from deb not support mongodb 4.2.
https://pypi.org/project/pymongo/3.6.1/
https://github.com/forwardemail/forwardemail.net/blob/master/ansible/playbooks/mongo.yml#L9

@MemberIT I still see that even your fork has this issue on first boot/provision:

RUNNING HANDLER [wait when mongodb is started] *********************************

Re-running provision fixes it. Do you know what's wrong??
