vagrant 在 Mac OS Monterey 上找不到 ansible

Question

I have a new MacBook running OS Monterey and I'm trying to install a project in vagrant. I have a completely clean install of the OS and I've downloaded the resources from GitHub. I previously had an identical copy running on an old machine. I installed ansible locally using the recommended

python3 -m pip install --user ansible

pip3 show ansible tells me that ansible 5.2.0 is installed in /Users/this_user/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages

When I run vagrant up vagrant imports the Virtualbox bento/ubuntu-20.04 but when it gets to provisioning it fails, first with

vagrant gathered an unknown Ansible version

And falls back on compatibility mode 1.8

And then:

The Ansible software could not be found!

I tried the suggestion of adding /Users/this_user/Library/Python/3.8/lib/python/site-packages to $PATH but this did not solve the problem.

ansible --version` results in `ansible: command not found

I'm running the latest Vagrant, 2.2.19 .

Answer 1

I uninstalled with python3 -m pip install ansible
then installed with Homebrew, brew install ansible
This solved the problem.

Answer 2

Using Virtualenv solved my problem:

I uninstalled ansible:

python3 -m pip install ansible

Create virtualenv:

virtualenv myenv -p python3
source myenv/bin/activate

Then install ansible:

pip3 install ansible
