Template Module Source Not Found

[Poseidon Olympian]

Hello,

Would appreciated of any help from my issue. Been trying to search around a solution but unsuccessful to resolved my issue.

I'm getting an error when running my playbook and here are the details.

Error Message

TASK [Copying the Common PROPS File] **********************************************************************************************************************************************
fatal: [ServerNODE1]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "msg": "Source /home/testuser/.ansible/tmp/ansible-local-51618XqSiUO/tmpZJx0Dp/copy_appprops_node.j2 not found"}

Template File Location

/home/testuser/scripts/ansible/templates/copy_appprops_node.j2

Playbook YML File (running by different user)

---
- name: Test Template
  hosts: app_host

  tasks:
    - name: Copying the properties file
      template:
        src: copy_appprops_node.j2
        dest: "/appserver/instance/conf/app_properties.conf"
        owner: app1
        group: app1
        mode: 0644
        remote_src: yes
...

I have already tried updating my ansible.cfg (in /home/testuser/scripts/ansible) to add 'remote_tmp     = ~/.ansible/tmp' (even /tmp/${USER}/ansible or /home/testuser/.ansible/tmp) but still not able to resolved.

Thank you in advance.

The template module does not support 'remote_src'.
You have to template the file on the controller node.
