ERROR! Syntax Error while loading YAML.

[Victor Sava]

Hi Guys, I get the following error while running an ansible-playbook

 

ERROR! Syntax Error while loading YAML.
  mapping values are not allowed in this context
The error appears to have been in '/home/user/.ansible/roles/nfs/tasks/main.yml': line 14, column 16, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.
The offending line appears to be:
    dest:/etc/exports
    insertafter: EOF
               ^ here

This is the role i have created 

- name: Update apt cahce
  apt: update_cache=yes cache_valid_time=3600




- name: Install NFS Kernel on websevers
  apt: name={{ item }} state=present
  with_items:
    - nfs-kernel-server




- name: Update Exports file nfs
  lineinfile:
    dest:/etc/exports
    insertafter: EOF
    create: True
    line: /var/www/wordpress *(insecure,rw,all_squash,anonuid=1000,anongid=1000,no_subtree_check)
  notify:
    - restart nfs

What i am doing wrong ?

Your issue is with `dest:/etc/exports`.  There needs to be a space after the `:`, so it should instead look like:

`dest: /etc/exports`

It looks like there is no space after the colon after "dest"...
