syntax error while loading yaml script

Archives Ansible Project

I`m trying to launch one playbook:

2

it should look like this

tasks:
- name: ensure update
   apt:update_cache=yes
- apt:upgrade=full

You cannot have multiple tasks per task, name is optional but - is not
as it indicates when the 'next task' starts

Ok, now I have another code in playbook

Hi,

tasks should have more spaces, it should be aligned to user, sudo, etc. keywords:

theres an intro to yaml syntax here. http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/YAMLSyntax.html

be carefull cutting and pasting from groups because things can get reformatted. heres an example with the code highlighting. i hope it comes out ok. also, you can put multiple variables in a single module call like this.

Im trying to run your example, but I have a message of error again. Now this is another position. I thougth there could be a problem with spaces, but changes doesnt work too.

ERROR: Syntax Error while loading YAML script, test1.yml
Note: The error may actually appear before this position: line 10, column 1
apt:update_cache=yes upgrade=full cache_valid_time=3600

^

you need a space after :

apt: update_cache=yes upgrade=full cache_valid_time=3600

Thank you. Now playbook doesn`t have syntax errors, but I have a permission error.

It is sometimes useful to re-run the command using -vvvv, which prints SSH debug output to help diagnose the issue.

I guess there might ba problem with SSH key and I have to make it and save in directory /root/.ansible/cp/. But SSH agent can`t open a connection to my authentication agent. Do you know, where does the trouble lie?
