I wish to search for all entries of string starting with "SSLFile" or
starting with "<whitespache>SSLFile" in a file(httpd.conf) and register it
to a variable and print all the matches found.
The string is found as evident from the output and the file is not modified
which is good; but I'm unable to print (debug) it. I get error as I try to
print. Below is my playbook:
- name: Find entries
lineinfile:
path: "/tmp/httpd.conf"
regexp: "\\sSSLFile.*"
state: absent
check_mode: yes
changed_when: false
register: filedet
- debug:
msg: "{{ filedet }}"
- debug:
msg: "{{ item.split()[1] }}"
with_items:
- "{{ filedet.stdout_lines }}"
I get the below error when i run the playbook:
ok: [10.9.9.11] => {
> "backup": "",
> "changed": false,
> "diff": [

> "after": "",
> "after_header": "/tmp/httpd.conf (content)",

Can you please suggest what is the correct way to print all the searched
matched strings without modifying the file ? I wish to use the the
registered variable to perform other actions later in the playbook.
