I set up a template copy and it isn’t working. I kept simpifying it until it is literally a src: and dest:. The output says it’s OK, 1 changed, 0 failed. But when I look on the destination, there’s no dest file.
Anyone have any ideas?
You are running ansible-playbook with -C aka --check so no changes is done in check mode.
From the man ansible-playbook
-C, --check
Do not make any changes on the remote system, but test resources to see what might have changed.
Note this can not scan all possible resource types and is only a simulation.
