ERROR! 'win_package' is not a valid attribute for a Play (Ansible controller version is 2.9)

[Amit Kumar]

Hi ,

As i have created two simple playbook to remove file from window system and create the file on window system.

But getting error while i execute the both playbook. (Ansible controller version is 2.9)

1. remove_file.yml

---
 - name: remove a file (check mode)
   hosts: win
   win_package:
    path: C:\ansible_wu.txt
    state: absent
    register: remove_file_check
    check_mode: yes
***************************************************

Error-

***************************************************

ERROR! 'win_package' is not a valid attribute for a Play

The error appears to be in '/home/ansible/rx_testing/win_remove_file.yml': line 2, column 4, but may
be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.

The offending line appears to be:

---
 - name: remove a file (check mode)
   ^ here

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

2. touch.yml

---
 - hosts: win
   name: Create the file
   win_file:
    path: C:\amit.txt
    state: touch

Your yml files that you have referenced are not properly formatted plays.

Read over this documentation: https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_intro.html#playbook-language-example

Ultimately, your first file is just a file with a task in it, and your 2nd is missing the `tasks:` header.
