[SOLVED] Ansible is not installing via PIP

Issue

I was following the tutorial on Ansible docs but was unable to finish it:

$ python -m pip install --user ansible

Returns an error:

/usr/bin/python: No module named pip

While another guide installed it by using python-pip3 and then after running pip3 install --user ansible it was ready to go.

It finishes installation successfully, yet ansible is still not available:

-bash: /usr/bin/ansible: No such file or directory

I have never worked with Python or PIP in the past and I don't understand what could go wrong in the process to start debugging.

Solution

I have not found a solution to this but instead I went with the CentOS Epel repository also described in the Ansible docs and it works this way.

sudo yum install epel-release
sudo yum install ansible

Edit: Ok, so all I had to do is to add the following to .bashrc file.

export PATH="$HOME/.local/bin:$PATH"

Fixed.
