Hi All,

I have a simple playbook where I am re-directing output of crontab -l 
command. However its gives me an empty output file once the playbook is 
executed. Any suggestion please.
+++
Ansible Playbook is:-
+++
 [root@ansible-master /]# cat test.yml
---

- hosts: target_servers
  tasks:
    - command: crontab -l
      register: foo_result
      ignore_errors: True
    - local_action: copy content= dest=/abc
[root@ansible-master /]#

+++
Output of the playbook once its executed is:-
+++
[root@ansible-master /]# ansible-playbook test.yml -v
Using /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg as config file
