[SLES] AWX setup link

Archives AWX Project

Hi,
I am looking out for a clear setup documentation link for installing AWX on SLES12/SLES15 server. Please help.

Thanks

AWX runs in containers either through Docker or Kuberneties.
Because of this we do not have specific instructions on installing in SLES.
Please see the install documentation and let us know if you hit specific errors in one of the install methods.

Thanks for this information. I tried the following AWX installation on the SLES server. I am hitting the below error. Could you please sharing your inputs on how to resolve this? Appreciate your help!

  1. Installed the following dependent software binaries on SLES12 SP5 - Docker version 20.10.17-ce/docker-compose version 1.29.1/Python 2.7.18/ansible 2.8.2/pip 20.3.4/Node.js v18.2.0/Npm 8.9.0
  2. Downloaded 17.0.1 AWX and installed it as a git clone as per the instructions updated in this wiki.
  3. Updated inventory for the required parameters
  4. Ran this playbook cmd – ansible-playbook -i inventory install.yml

I get this error:
