Running on debian stretch

[map7]

I ran your role on Debian Stretch as systemd puts the instance directory deep down in the /tmp/systemd.private... directory

The fix in the bug report could be applied to this task and then it would work for all versions of Debian.

Something like the following should fix the problem

- name: Create apache2.service.d
  file: path=/etc/systemd/system/apache2.service.d state=directory
  when: ansible_distribution_release == 'stretch'

- name: Install passenger setup to Apache2
  copy:
    src=common/files/passenger-instance-reg.conf
    dest=/etc/systemd/system/apache2.service.d
    owner=root
    group=root
    mode=644
  when: ansible_distribution_release == 'stretch'
  
- name: Add passenger instance registry dir to apache setup
  lineinfile:
    dest: /etc/apache2/apache2.conf
    regexp: 'PassengerInstanceRegistryDir'
    line: 'PassengerInstanceRegistryDir /run/passenger'
    state: present
  when: ansible_distribution_release == 'stretch'

- name: Add passenger instance registry dir to environement
  lineinfile:
    dest: /etc/environment
    regexp: 'PASSENGER_INSTANCE_REGISTRY_DIR'
    line: 'PASSENGER_INSTANCE_REGISTRY_DIR=/run/passenger'
    state: present
  when: ansible_distribution_release == 'stretch'

- name: Reload daemon
  command: systemctl daemon-reload
  when: ansible_distribution_release == 'stretch'

- name: Restart apache2
  service:
    name: apache2
    state: restarted
  when: ansible_distribution_release == 'stretch'

Hi @map7 ,

Unfortunately, I'm afraid I won't be able to fix this issue in a timely fashion. However, I'd love to review a PR with your fix, along with some tests for it!

Thanks for the report!
