command not found error

rajendar@HP-EliteBook:~$ ansible --version
ansible 2.5.1
config file = /etc/ansible/ansible.cfg

ajendar@HP-EliteBook:~$ ansible all -m ping

Do you have the output from the “command not found”?
Is the “command not found” inside the ansible output or is it complaining that ansible cannot be found?

Try adding -vvvv to the ansible command to get more output

Make sure the echo command is under the /bin path
