Hi, every time I download the file for ansible it gives me an error:
ReplyDeleteERROR: Cannot uninstall 'pyparsing'. It is a distutils installed project and thus we cannot accurately determine which files belong to it which would lead to only a partial uninstall
Use the below command
Deletepython3 -m pip install ansible
This worked for me and installed ansible 2.10.3 on my Macbook pro 2019
I also got an error.
ReplyDeleteERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement ansible (from versions): none)
ERROR:No matching distribution found for ansible
Where will be the ansible.cfg and how we can run Roles from mac
