Raw module invoking /usr/bin/python

I assume I broke a config somewhere because this makes no sense:

$ ansible -vvv ‘*’ -i hosts.isp-east-stage -M raw -a ‘whoami’ -u ubuntu -l X.X.X.X

ansible 2.5.1
config file = /home/dmartin/.ansible.cfg
configured module search path = [u’/home/dmartin/.ansible/plugins/modules’, u’/usr/share/ansible/plugins/modules’]
ansible python module location = /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ansible
executable location = /usr/bin/ansible

Any idea what’s going on?

Oh, I’m trying to install python on some ubuntu instances in AWS.

Thanks!

You need to use lower case -m, uppercase -M is module path.

Since the default module is command this make sense.
