If you are already using a template, why not just that instead of lineinfile...?

because lineinfile came to my attention first, to be honest.
But I'll happily be looking into other options (as I can not make it work anyway)






    this is ant extract of the file content

    > cat bin/.myenv
    # Mysql Environment
    ...
    MYBASE=/opt/db/mysql/mariadb
    *MYHOME=/opt/db/mysql/mariadb-10.0.23-linux-x86_64*
    MYDATA=/opt/db/data/mysql
    MYBACK=/opt/db/backup/mysql/dumps
    ...
    I want to replace the line
    *MYHOME=/opt/db/mysql/mariadb-10.0.23-linux-x86_64*

    with this new line
    MYHOME=/opt/db/mysql/mariadb-10.5.4-linux-x86_64
    *
    *
    my TASK looks like this

    - name: replace mariadb version in " {{ mariadb_base }}"/bin/.myenv
    lineinfile:
    path: "{{ mariadb_base }}/bin/.myenv "
    regexp: 'MYHOME=/opt/db/mysql/*'
    line: MYHOME=/opt/db/mysql/mariadb-10.5.4-linux-x86_64
    where {{ mariadb_base }} equals /opt/db/mysql

    the error I am getting is:

    TASK [mariadb_install : replace mariadb version in "
    /opt/db/mysql"/bin/.myenv]
    *******************************************************************
    fatal: [vm-51150-0198]: FAILED! => changed=false
    msg: Destination /opt/db/mysql/bin/.myenv does not exist !
    rc: 257

    however checking on the target I can see that the file
    /opt/db/mysql/bin/.myenv actually does exist
