Hello, did u check ur host?.. Also u can check if path is configured correctly but putting a txt or conf file in the same directory as ur xml one(since i worked with txt nd conf file only using lineinfile )and running the same task on that file.If that works fine it means its failing on xml..some people complained that lineinfile somehow changed the file format...U can try using template module.. hope that might help. Regards
