The user account is a local admin account with perm to the c:\temp folder.
Error is:
fatal: [winserver1.foo.com]: FAILED! => {
"changed": false,
"failed": true,
"invocation": {
"module_name": "win_lineinfile"
},
"msg": "Destination c:\\temp\\ansible-windows_base.log does not exist !"
}
If the file exists it works:
changed: [winserver1.foo.com] => {
"backup": "",
"changed": true,
"encoding": "utf-8",
"invocation": {
"module_name": "win_lineinfile"
},
"msg": "line added"
}
And if i create a task to create the file ahead of time all is OK
*- hosts: all*
* tasks:*
* - name: create file*
* win_file:*
* path: 'c:\temp\ansible-windows_base.log'*
* state: touch*
* - name: win_lineinfile test*
* win_lineinfile:*
* dest: 'c:\temp\ansible-windows_base.log'*
* create: true *
* line: 'test-{{ ansible_hostname }}-{{ ansible_date_time.iso8601 }}'*
* regexp: 'test-{{ ansible_hostname }}-'*
* state: present*
And re-run:
TASK [create file] ******
changed: [winserver1.foo.com] => { "changed": true, "invocation": {
"module_name": "win_file" } }
TASK [win_lineinfile test] ******
changed: [winserver1.foo.com] => { "backup": "", "changed": true,
"encoding": "utf-16", "invocation": { "module_name": "win_lineinfile" },
"msg": "line added" }
I've also upgrade to 2.2.1.0 and getting the same. Since the linux module
will create a new file I'm assuming something is funky with the windows one.
