Ansible shows error that says missing ':' even when it is already present

Please look at the screenshot in below link. Ansible shows an error that ‘could not find expected :’. However as shown in the screenshot, the palce where it indicates an error, that palce already has the ‘:’. Why does ansible show this?

I cannot tell for sure without seeing the code of this task, but could it perhaps be, that you forgot a “-” at the before “register”?

Hi Vikram,

Please include the full playbook.

Hi,

‘-’ shouldn’t be used for register module. I later found that there was an empty space after the line which was causing the error.
