Hello

I am trying to gather facts (date and time) on the local machine (Ansible 
Host) using (local_action) before the rest of the playbook continues:


- name: Gathering and setting Facts for this deploy

  local_action: 

    set_fact: 

      date_time: '{{ ansible_date_time.date }}_{{ ansible_date_time.time }}'


Basically, the remote host is in a different time zone, but I would like to 
use the date of the Ansible Host for creating directories etc. 


But I keep seeing the following error:

ERROR! no action detected in task. This often indicates a misspelled module 
name, or incorrect module path.


The error appears to have been in 
'/usr/playbooks/roles/websites-backup/tasks/main.yml': line 3, column 3, 
but may

be elsewhere in the file depending on the exact syntax problem.


The offending line appears to be:



- name: Gathering and setting Facts for this deploy

  ^ here
