Ansible Tower uses Python 2.7.5

ukohae — Fri, 12 Feb 2021 14:24:09 GMT

Ansible Tower Version 3.6.2
Ansible Core Version with Ansible Tower 2.9.1
Ansible Core Version within WSL 2.9.13
Ansible Core Version with WSL via PPA Repository 2.9.14

Ansible Core Version within WSL with no additional repositories configure 2.5.1

Ansible-Base within WSL via PPA repository 2.10.2

I am trying to run Ansible Galaxy Collections for a Checkpoint module

The requirement from Ansible Checkpoint is

ansible_python_interpreter=[path to the Python installation (>=2.7.9 and < 3.0) on the Ansible server]

My Tower Python Version is 2.7.5

Question: is there any way to get around the python version to make my playbook runon the tower ( without upgrading my python version in Tower)?

I presume there are some bugs or missing features/functions in lower versions.
You can try it but it probably won’t be supported if you run into issues.
