What to do if an incompatibility is foundWe have spent several releases squashing bugs and adding new tests so that Ansible’s core featureset runs under both Python 2 and Python 3. However, bugs may still exist in edge cases and many ofthe modules shipped with Ansible are maintained by the community and not all of those may be portedyet.If you find a bug running under Python 3 you can submit a bug report on. Be sure to mention Python3 in the bug report sothat the right people look at it.If you would like to fix the code and submit a pull request on github, you canrefer to for information on how we fixcommon Python3 compatibility issues in the Ansible codebase.

Beginning in Ansible Tower version 2.3.0, Tower installations can be performed using a bundled installation program. The bundled installation program is meant for customers who cannot, or would prefer not to, install Tower (and its dependencies) from online repositories. Access to Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Centos repositories is still needed.

On Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7, Ansible Tower 3.5.0 requires the Python 3 Software Collection. If you are installing Tower offline, you need either CentOS-SCL or RH-SCL repositories enabled through a local mirror:
A list of package dependencies from Red Hat Enterprise Linux repositories can be found in the
bundle/base_packages.txt file inside the setup bundle. Depending on what minor version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux you are running, the version and release specified in that file may be slightly different than what is available in your configured repository.
2.2. Using Vagrant/Amazon AMI Images¶
One easy way to try Ansible Tower is to use a Vagrant box or an Amazon EC2 instance, and launching a trial of Ansible Tower just takes a few minutes.
If you use the Vagrant box or Amazon AMI Tower images provided by Ansible, you can find the auto-generated admin password by connecting to the image and reading it from the message of the day (MOTD) shown at login.
2.2.1. Vagrant¶
For Vagrant images, use the following commands to connect:
That last command provides your admin password and the Tower log-in URL. Upon login, you will receive directions on obtaining a trial license.
An up-to-date link to Ansible’s Vagrant image is available from the LAUNCH TOWER IN VAGRANT section of Ansible’s main website.
2.2.2. Amazon EC2¶
To launch the AMI, you must have an AMI ID (which varies based on you particular AWS region). A list of regions with links to AMI IDs is available in the LAUNCH TOWER IN AMAZON EC2 section of Ansible’s main website.
To connect to Amazon AMI images, use the following command:
You must use the SSH key that you configured the instance to accept at launch time.
