Using variable into failed_when in a role

[gabriel westrelin]

In a role, I would like to use a variable that I set when calling in the playbook in a "failed_when". I still have this error:

FAILED! => {"msg": "The conditional check 'vars.reponseOK not in reponse.content' failed. The error was: error while evaluating conditional (vars.reponseOK not in reponse.content): Unable to look up a name or access an attribute in template string ({% if vars.reponseOK not in reponse.content %} True {% else %} False {% endif %}).\nMake sure your variable name does not contain invalid characters like '-': argument of type 'AnsibleUndefined' is not iterable"}

I tried a lot of things: put "", some ', with nothing and nothing helped, I always have the same error.

In the role/tasks/main.yml, I have this :

- name: "Appel du sanitycheck du MS"

  block:

  - name: "tentative pour appeller la sanityUrl"

    uri:

      url: "{{vars.sanityUrl}}"

      return_content: yes

    register: reponse

    failed_when: " vars.reponseOK not in reponse.content  "

  rescue:

  - name: "On va attendre que le port soit up... "

    wait_for:

      port: "{{vars.portMS|int}}"

      delay: "{{vars.delayInit|int}}"

      state: started

      timeout: 60

  - name: "2ième tentative pour appeller la sanityUrl"

    uri:

      url: "{{vars.sanityUrl}}"

      return_content: yes

    register: reponse

    failed_when: " vars.reponseOK not in reponse.content "

And I call the role in the playbook with this:

- name: "Check Backend sur les VM backend"

  hosts: backend

  gather_facts: False

  #any_errors_fatal: yes

  tasks:

  - name: "boucle"

    include_role:

      name: "Common/sanitycheckms"

    vars:

      - sanityUrl: "{{ item.sanityUrl }}"

      - portMS: "{{ item.portMS }}"

      - delayInit: "{{ item.delayInit }}"

      - reponseOK: "{{ item.reponseOK }}"

    loop:

      - { sanityUrl: "http://localhost:8083/actuator/health", reponseOK: "UP",  portMS: 8083, delayInit: 10,  hostMS: "backend"}

Can you please help me please?

Thank you in advance !

failed_when deals with the return status of a task's action, it cannot
shortcut any syntax or definition errors.
