yes, you can install this from different path. you can give the directory path while cloning the code. you can follow these steps: step:1 yum install make git make gcc python-devel libffi-devel openssl-devel epel-release python-sphinx step:2 yum install python-pip step:3 git clone git://github.com/ansible/ansible.git <your directory_path> step:4 cd <your directory_path> step:5 git branch -a | grep stable step:6 git checkout stable-2.3 <you can checkout whatever version you want> step:7 make step:8 make install step:9 yum install epel-release and after completing these steps you can check your ansible version: $ ansible --version On Thursday, July 27, 2017 at 12:17:43 PM UTC+5:30, Imam Toufique wrote: > > Hi, > > I am new to Ansible.
