Ansible "copy" module not working through Playbook

[Gijs Roeffen]

Hi,

I dont know whenether im going nuts or just havent RTFM enough, but the following is my issue;

When using ansibile from command-line to copy an file it works perfect;

# ansible test.domain.local -m copy -a "src=/mgmt/cmdb/shared/etc/exim.conf dest=/etc/exim.conf owner=root group=root mode=0644"

test.domain.locall | success >> {

    "changed": true,

    "gid": 0,

    "group": "root",

    "mode": "0644",

    "owner": "root",

    "path": "/etc/exim.conf",

    "size": 2660,

    "state": "file",

    "uid": 0

}

Every change i write to the file is being updated to the remote host and its being updated vice versa, etc.

However; when i use it in an playbook;

"

---

- hosts: test.domain.local

  user: root

  tasks:

  - name: exim

    copy:  src=/mgmt/cmdb/shared/etc/exim.conf dest=/etc/exim.conf owner=root group=root mode=0644

"

The playbook-run comes back "ok"

PLAY RECAP ********************************************************************

test.domain.local    : ok=2    changed=0    unreachable=0    failed=0

But the file isnt being update, whenether i remove it or.. well.. do anything with it. It just ALWAYS comes back with "ok".

What am i missing or not seeing here?

Thanks alot in advance for your support and understanding,

Kind regards,

Gijs

My first thought is your first /usr/bin/ansible command placed it correctly so the second /usr/bin/ansible-playbook command didn't have to.

I see "test.domain.locall" returned by Ansible. Is it possible you have a typo somwhere and are looking on the wrong host or something?

Hi Michael,

That was it! I figured it out now :-) Thanks for your time and help!

Kind regards,
