You've a few different issues. One is that you *need* python 3 to run
contemporary versions of ansible. Another is that ansible went through
a very confusing split a few years back. If you're installing ansible
on the RHEL 7 server itself, you need to *not* use the old, published
"ansible" package, which predates the split, and use a contemporary
"ansible-core" setup.
Unfortunately, the new ansible is called "ansible-core", and the
package called "ansible" now isn't. It's a ginormous bundle of more
than 100 third party modules, installed as "ansible_collections", and
should have been labeled "ansible_collections. No one publishes
ansible-core as an RPM for RHEL less than RHEL 8. I used to,
personally,
To get a more contempory version of ansible running on RHEL 7:
sudo yum install python3 python3-pip
pip3 install --user ansible-core
ansible --version
It won't be ideal, the python3 on RHEL 7 is increasingly out of date,
and the assemblage of dependencies for ansible-core continues to grow,
so more and more stuff winds up in $HOME/.local/ . I used to publish
RPM building tools for RHEL 7, but gave up when ansible-core started
require python 3.11 for current releases.
