Changes to vars.yml do not affect the server when setup-all (update) is run

[BettyNutz]

Matrix Server:

• OS: [deb11]
• Architecture [amd64] 1gb linode instance

Problem description:

When i modify the vars.yml file and run this command:

ansible-playbook -i inventory/hosts setup.yml --tags=setup-all --ask-become-pass

The playbook does not update the server. Not had a problem doing this before.

Note: I have run just roles after the mod to the vars.yml file. Not entirely sure if this needs to be done every time i mod the vars.yml file?

Can you elaborate which changes you made to the vars.yml that were not applied?

You don't have to run just roles every time you modify your vars.yml, just when you pull a new version of the playbook.
