.yml is failing with syntax error -- need advise

[Shaikh Abdul]

Hi Experts,

My export.yml is failing,please correct me

[oracle@node02 ~]$ cat export.yml

---

  - hosts: node02

  vars:

    ORACLE_BASE: /u01/oracle/product

    ORACLE_HOME: /u01/oracle/product/11.2.0

    remote_user: oracle

    sudo_user: root

    sudo: false

    gather_facts: true

  tasks:

  - name: export ORACLE_HOME

  action: shell export ORACLE_HOME={{ ORACLE_HOME }};

********************************************************************************

[oracle@node02 ~]$ ansible-playbook -i hosts -k export.yml

SSH password:

ERROR! Syntax Error while loading YAML.

The error appears to have been in '/home/oracle/export.yml': line 3, column 3, but may

be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.

The offending line appears to be:

  - hosts: node02

  vars:

  ^ here

Regards,

Abdul

Try the attached Python script.

But probably you just have the wrong number of spaces for indentation.

Try:

---
- hosts: node02
vars:
ORACLE_BASE: /u01/oracle/product
ORACLE_HOME: /u01/oracle/product/11.2.0
remote_user: oracle
sudo_user: root
sudo: false
gather_facts: true
tasks:
- name: export ORACLE_HOME
action: shell export ORACLE_HOME={{ ORACLE_HOME }};

But also be advised that you can specify the environment directly in your playbook. First question in the FAQ
(http://docs.ansible.com/ansible/faq.html)

Thank You Uwe Sauter.

Yes, it was due to spaces. Thanks again for quick assistance.

Abdul

I believe the problem here is indentation.

- hosts: node02

  vars:

    ORACLE_BASE: /u01/oracle/product

    ORACLE_HOME: /u01/oracle/product/11.2.0

  remote_user: oracle

  sudo_user: root

  sudo: false

  gather_facts: true

  tasks:
