I have no clue why the template module fails and the shell works with the nested items.   I don’t have 'ORA_SID' any place but it keeps saying its ansible.errors.AnsibleUndefinedVariable, any ideas on this one would be welcome.   Thanks

 

Plays:

- name: test running the shell - Works

  ansible.builtin.shell: touch /tmp/{{ item.0.file_name | replace('.j2', '') }}_{{ item.1.ora_sid }}.{{ item.0.ext }}

  with_nested:

    - "{{ db_create_files }}"

    - "{{ specific_hosts_conf }}"

  when: inventory_hostname == item.1.host

 

- name: test with template with nested item – DOES NOT WORK

  template:

    src: "{{ item.0.file_name }}"

    dest: "/tmp/{{ item.0.file_name | replace('.j2', '') }}_{{ item.1.ora_sid }}.{{ item.0.ext }}"

  with_nested:

    - "{{ db_create_files }}"

    - "{{ specific_hosts_conf }}"

  when: inventory_hostname == item.1.host

 

 

Vars file:

specific_hosts_conf:

  - { host: 'nrfkdk17v.test.local', specific_ip: '192.168.1.46', specific_host: 'nrfkdk17v.test.local nrfkdk17v', ora_sid: 'Ansible'}

db_create_files:

  - { file_name: 'DBcreate.j2', ext: 'sh'}

        }

    ]

}

Your template file is apparently referencing "item.ORA_SID" instead of "item[0].ora_sid".
