With the given async: 300 setting in the Install Gitlab task my installation never succeeded:

TASK [geerlingguy.gitlab : Install GitLab] *********************************************************************************************
fatal: [testvm]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "async task did not complete within the requested time - 300s"}

I changed it to 60000 (might be too high, actually) and then it worked.

Maybe the timeout could better be a variable in defaults/main.yml?

I also have to change this, 600 worked for me. It's a huuuge package and a lot of post actions, so 300 is not enough.

I've created pull request #163 for this

Timeout as well in my case. I removed the async statement entirely. What was the intent to use async?

This issue is no longer marked for closure.

Timeout for me as well:
TASK [geerlingguy.gitlab : Install GitLab] ************************************* fatal: [ubu-gitlab]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "async task did not complete within the requested time - 300s"}

My usecase: vagrant with:

Ubuntu 16.04.7 LTS
4GB mem

fix was to increase async, however would be fine to have a long-term solution (fixed in role).

Thanks in advice.

FWIW I'm running into this as well. Unsure what's causing it to work quickly on local VMs and not in EC2 instances, as the local VMs don't get the timeout.

Async timeout too short in install task
