What does "XXX" mean?

Trying to do:

sudo: true
file: path=/opt/webapp/profilesvc/enabled.txt state=file

and getting:

failed: [localhost] => {“failed”: true, “path”: “/opt/webapp/profilesvc/enabled.txt”, “state”: “absent”}
msg: file (/opt/webapp/profilesvc/enabled.txt) is absent, cannot continue

The directory exists:

vagrant@localmonkey:~$ ls /opt/webapp/profilesvc
bin include lib local pip-selfcheck.json share src

Any ideas?

Hi,

Oops.

If file, the file will NOT be created if it does not exist, see the copy or template module if you want that behavior.

I somehow forgot that and had myself convinced it would create the file for me if it didn’t exist.

Oops.
