Hi,
i am facing an error that is blocking my work on ansible. i am trying to connect from my control machine to a big number of hosts to execute remote commands (around 1000 hosts).
some of these target hosts didn’t have python2.6 installed under /usr/bin/python, thus i was not able to connect to them.
Unix team suggested to put python2.6 under a shared location and thus all machines will be able to connect to it(shared location=./nettools/python_ansible/bin/python), i updated my “group_vars/all” to point to this location, as per below
ansible_python_interpreter: /nettools/python_ansible/bin/python
now when trying to connect to remote hosts, i faced many issues related to libraries
hp214srv | FAILED! => {
"changed": false,
"failed": true,
"module_stderr": "ld.so.1: python: fatal: libpython2.6.so.1.0: open failed: No such file or directory\n/bin/bash: line 1: 3469 Killed /nettools/python_ansible/bin/python\n",
"module_stdout": "",
"msg": "MODULE FAILURE"
}

only machines having python2.6 installed locally were still able to connect since libpython2.6.so.1.0 was found locally (i knew this after running ldd on the python executable)
what i did next, is that i created a wrapper /nettools/python_ansible/bin/python.sh and below is the code inside the wrapper
hp225srv autoengine /usr/local/quality/test/bin/
bash$ vi python.sh

this time where running ansible -m ping dell190srv,dell201srv,dell027srv,hp214srv,hp244srv from control machine i got the below output

1. this is really annoying as it is blocking my progress in learning this tool, i am in the middle of the course and i like it.
Please can anyone help me and tell me what is missing, why i am not able to connect to these machines, and what is the best way to do so?
i have been searching for one week for a solution and still no success.
waiting for your help, Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Anthony
