I believe what you are doing is constantly overwriting the last line.
I think, based on the examples and my testing, you would simply want to do:
vars:
limits_lines:
- 'root soft nofile 65535'
- 'root hard nofile 65535'
- 'root soft memlock unlimited'
- 'root hard memlock unlimited'
tasks:
- name: append string
lineinfile: dest=/etc/security/limits.conf
line="{{item}}"
with_items: limits_lines

I would like to add a few lines to the end of a config file using lineinfile
and with_items.
When I run this yaml, I see changed log messages for all four entries (see
below). However when I look at the file, only the very last line has been
added.
Your thoughts?
Thanks,
Mark
