I think the issue is your respfile fact contains a list, not a string,
hence the [ ] in the Debug output.
There are a couple of ways to fix that. You can either do it when you are
creating the fact (use the 'first' filter to just get the first element of
the list), like this.
- name: Set Response Variable - respfile
set_fact:
respfile: "{{ result.stdout | regex_search(regexp,'\\1') |first}}"
Or you could do it when you use the respfile fact
- name: Uninstall old oracle client
command: /bin/sh -c "/opt/oracle/product/12.1.0/
deinstall/deinstall -silent -paramfile {{ respfile|first }}"
become: true
become_user: orclient
become_method: sudo
Instead of using a filter you can use array syntax:
- name: Uninstall old oracle client
command: /bin/sh -c "/opt/oracle/product/12.1.0/
deinstall/deinstall -silent -paramfile {{ respfile[0] }}"
become: true
become_user: orclient
become_method: sudo
Hope this helps,
Jon
