I tried few combinations:
#####
- hosts: jump
remote_user: deploy
gather_facts: yes
tasks:
- set_fact: test_err=yes
- debug: var=test_err
- debug: var=test_err
ignore_errors: test_err | bool
#####
or
####
- hosts: jump
remote_user: deploy
gather_facts: yes
tasks:
- set_fact: test_err={{ 'yes' |bool }}
- debug: var=test_err
- debug: var=test_err
ignore_errors: test_err
####
or
####
- hosts: jump
remote_user: deploy
gather_facts: yes
tasks:
- set_fact: test_err=True
- debug: var=test_err
- debug: var=test_err
ignore_errors: test_err
####
In all cases got following error:
####
PLAY [jump]
