Ansible Playbook AWS

Hi,

I am new to ansible playbbok and I am trying to create AWS EC2 instance using a playbook based in some examples found in internet.

But when I run the play-book I got the following error ! but I when execute a script python using boto3 it works !?

An exception occurred during task execution. The full traceback is:
Traceback (most recent call last):
