Hi Thanks for using ansible. To answer your question more information is needed. Could you please describe clearly all of the below: - Which commands did you run, and what actual output did you get (copied as plain text - not as screenshots, images, or other binary attachments). - What do the relevant inventory/tasks/playbooks/code/variables look like. - The output of ‘ansible --version’ ---
