Does this answer your question? [Ansible fails with /bin/sh: 1: /usr/bin/python: not found](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/32429259/ansible-fails-with-bin-sh-1-usr-bin-python-not-found) — mdaniel, Sep 23 '20 at 16:10

This issue resolved after installed python on a remote server

connect with ssh and install python

ssh -i ec2-ssh.pem ubuntu@10.120.30.20

sudo apt install python

Rather than doing that one-off thing, you can also use `raw:` to correctly detect if python is already installed and similarly use `raw:` to install it ; that way, none of your colleagues will have to come to SO to ask duplicated questions in the future – mdaniel Sep 23 '20 at 16:12
