Hi, There are a number of different versions of YAML (1.0,1.1,1.2), and within these versions choices that can be made about which tags to include and so on. Is the dialect of YAML that ansible uses defined anywhere? This isn't just pedantry, it does make a difference (e.g. to which strings are

Re: [ansible-project] Can't get expect to work - The pexpect python module is required

pexpect must be installed on the hosts that you are targeting. So if you want to run a command with expect on a remote server called server1, pexpect must be installed on server1. You may wish to run an apt task to instal pexpect on all remote servers before trying to use the expect module. On

Re: [ansible-project] `run_once` used together with `when` not generating expected result

run_once limits the task to run on the 'first host' in the current play, so the when only evaluates for that host, if that host is not in 'group2' it will be skipped an no other host will be evaluated. -- Brian Coca -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups

This is tricky, task includes are now dynamic in 2.0. Before 2.0 the when: does not stop the include from happening, it just gets applied to each included task, in 2.0 it does that only if the when cannot be resolved with the information available at the time of the include. -- Brian Coca --
