venv for Ansible and Python3 with AWX build 4.0.0 #4015

Open cbutler65 opened 5 years ago

cbutler65 commented 5 years ago
ISSUE TYPE
COMPONENT NAME
SUMMARY

/usr/bin/awx-manage inventory_import in a playbook fails

Cause: AWX 4.0.0 has pre-installed venv for Python3(AWX) and Python2(Ansible), but requires venv for Python3(Ansible).

I have installed the venv for Python3(Ansible) and this fixes the problem but it should be pre-installed to enable std functionality. so I don't have to manually install on awx-task and awx-web images.

I would like the venv for Python3(Ansible) pre-installed with the images.

ENVIRONMENT
STEPS TO REPRODUCE

local_action: command /usr/bin/awx-manage inventory_import --source /tmp/Patching_Inventories_updates/"{{ Inventory_Name }}".txt --inventory-name "{{ Inventory_Name }}"

EXPECTED RESULTS

inventory is imported

ACTUAL RESULTS

Inventory import fails. After I install the venv for Python3(Ansible) and select the ANSIBLE ENVIRONMENT in the Template, it works.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

@cbutler65 so I understand, what you're asking is for awx builds to ship by default with a Python3 ansible virtualenv (instead of a Python2 one)?

cbutler65 commented 5 years ago

No, I think it should come bundled with all 3, Python3(AWX), Python2(Ansible) and Python3(Ansible). So that all options are covered and We the users can enable functionality by just choosing the ANSIBLE ENVIRONMENT from within the UI.
