Issue
I need to install ansible 2.1.0.0-1.el7. My setup does not work with the newest version of ansible which I installed with:
yum -y --enablerepo=epel install ansible
This gave me ansible-2.2.0.0-3.el7.noarch. So I tried to list the older versions but I could not find them:
# yum -y --enablerepo=epel --showduplicates list ansible
Failed to set locale, defaulting to C
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
* base: mirror2.hs-esslingen.de
* epel: epel.mirrors.ovh.net
* extras: it.centos.contactlab.it
* updates: mirror.netcologne.de
Available Packages
ansible.noarch 2.2.0.0-3.el7 epel
This is a site where I found multiple versions but I don't know how to install it.
Can someone help me to install the Ansible version I need?
Solution
You should install it with python pip.
sudo yum install python-pip python-devel python
And then:
sudo pip install pip --upgrade
sudo pip install ansible==2.1.0.0
And now you should be able to use:
ansible-playbook ...
If you don't manage to install pip with the command I gave you, have a look here: https://packaging.python.org/install_requirements_linux/
