Sounds like you have _no\_log: yes_ set on your task which is blocking the output from being shown to you. If you remove that to debug the task you may be able to find out what is going on.

It looks like you’re using molecule with the Ansible provisioner. By default, the Ansible provisioner in Molecule does hides certain logs, but if you go to your `molecule.yml` file (in `<your_role>/molecule/<scenario_name>/molecule.yml`, in your example the name is ‘default’) you can configure it as such:

```auto
provisioner:
name: ansible
log: true

```

After that all log output related to creation/destruction should be visible in the console.
