Hello MR. Walter,

Thanks a lot. My code and understanding  was fine but as you pointed out i 
somehow couldn’t  see space in front. And as we know ansible is not good 
for error prompt i mislead it.


Thanks again. it worked by add 2 spaces in with_items.

By the way any good tool or editor you can recommend which auto corrects or 
helps with this??

Also could you please tell me what did u do for troubleshooting  is it only 
, debug or something else so that i ll try to  do next time.
