Remove symlink with Ansible
You have a synatx error in your task. It should be:
- name: Remove symlink
file:
path: "/usr/local/bin/dead_symlink"
state: absent
Ansible is probably looking for the path path=/usr/local/bin/dead_symlink
and not for /usr/local/bin/dead_symlink
.
For me in playbook
- name: Deleting Default Configurations
when: sitelink is success
file: path=/etc/nginx/site-enabled/default state=absent
above code is working nice for me just replace with your path.
