PLAYBOOK: junos_config_new.yml ***************************************************************************************************************************** 1 plays in junos_config_new.yml

This is the playbook that I have ...

        name: Juniper SRX configuration compliance checks 
        hosts: juniper
        gather_facts: false
        connection: local
           tasks:
             - name: Syslog server checks 
               junos_config:
                     src: ~/ansible_junos/files/syslog_config.txt
                 comment: Ensure that appropriate Syslog server configured 
               register: junos_output
             - debug:
                 var: junos_output

             - name: success
                 debug:
                   msg: Syslog server check - This check has passed with the following output({{ junos_output }})
                   when: not junos_output.changed 

             - name: failed
                debug:
                  msg: Syslog server check - This check has failed with the following output({{ junos_output }})
                 when: junos_output.changed 

             - name: Admin credentials check
                junos_config:
                       src: ~/ansible_junos/files/admin_user.txt
                   comment: Ensure that Admin user havee been created
                register: junos_output
             - debug:
                  var: junos_output

             - name: success
                   debug:
                     msg: Admin credentials check - This check has passed with the following output({{ junos_output }})
                    when: not junos_output.changed 

             - name: failed
                  debug:
                    msg: Admin credentials check - This check has failed with the following output({{ junos_output }})
                   when: junos_output.changed

The directory ~/ansible_junos/files/syslog_config.txt is in the right place

My question is ; should ~/ansible_junos/files/ be the right place to place all the configuration to be compared against the firewall .

Please let me know ..

I am guessing that the junos_config module doesn't do ~ expansion.

Can you try with the full path to the file.. Presumably 

- name: name: Syslog server checks 
  junos_config:
    src: /home/gefela/ansible_junos/files/syslog_config.txt
