Ansible variable question.

[Jason Morgan]

Hi ,

I have a variable declared as shown below. When the playbook run, the two tasks shown below are skipped. Can someone please clarify the best practice to declare the variable and use as detailed below.

mariadb_version: 10.1

 - name: Start MariaDB 10.0

   service: name=mysql enabled=yes state=started

   when: mariadb_version == '10.0'

 - name: Start MariaDB 10.1

   service: name=mariadb enabled=yes state=started

   when: mariadb_version == '10.1'

Thanks

Change this:
mariadb_version: 10.1

into this:

mariadb_version: "10.1"

Then the second task should work.
