Hello, You could also try and run the command without quotes 'which python' that will give you the path to the Python executable
Then run again without the quotes '/usr/bin/python --version' replacing the path with the one returned from the which command you ran before which will give you the python version. Ansible afaik requires Python 2.7 so if the version of the system python is Python 3 you may want to symlink /usr/bin/python to the python2 executable.
