Hi People,

I am running the ansible playbook through AWX and its getting failed with the subjected error. But the same playbook is running on other server successfully. Kindly help to resolve the issue.

This means it's not an ansible issue, but rather an AWX issue. Please
use the dedicated AWX list: https://groups.google.com/g/awx-project

it seems that you are using python 2.6 since there is a syntax error for “with” syntax. Try updating the Python version to the latest.

Aren’t the modules supposed to work with python 2.6? He is running the setup module…
Probably the behaviour is different because the Ansible versions are different between the Ansible inside AWX and the Ansible in the server.
That info is lacking from OP. As is the OS version of the managed server…
