Hi AWX Group,  
I am working on executing a playbook using custom python venv. The location for the venv has been exposed to the AWX.  
I am getting error when launching the template. Can you please help me?

Thank you,  
Srin

without knowing much and with the screenshot log , it suggests it is file missing problem.  
your code is expecting some python script which is not availble in the awx container.

Looks like you are executing job locally in AWX container. This error maybe because of bubblewarp functionality. Have you tried executing your job on another server? I faced the similar issue and had to end up executing my script from machine where awx containers were deployed.
