Thank you nkadel for your response but I am running the ansible on ubuntu 
mate not the CentOS. I tried removing ansible from the ubuntu host and 
re-installing it like you said but I got an error message. Please see below
!





*user@ansible-controller:~$ sudo apt install ansible-core -yReading package 
lists... DoneBuilding dependency treeReading state information... DoneE: 
Unable to locate package ansible-coreuser@ansible-controller:~$*
