Trying to run a playbook through the ansible provisioner on vagrant on an Ubuntu Xenial image but receiving the following error:

PLAY [all] *********************************************************************

TASK [setup] ******************************************************************* fatal: [default]: FAILED! => {"changed": false, "failed": true, "module_stderr": "Shared connection to 127.0.0.1 closed.\r\n", "module_stdout": "\r\n/bin/sh: 1: /usr/bin/python: not found\r\n", "msg": "MODULE FAILURE"} to retry, use: --limit @/Users/user/Code/Vagrant/Ansible-Splunk-Ubuntu/test.retry

PLAY RECAP ********************************************************************* default : ok=0 changed=0 unreachable=0 failed=1

Ansible failed to complete successfully. Any error output should be visible above. Please fix these errors and try again.

Turns out the Ubuntu image that Vagrant downloaded for me did not have Python (not even Python3)!

Ansible requires python2 in order to function properly. To solve my issue, I ssh'd into my Ubuntu VM and ran 'sudo apt-get install' python which installed Python2.7.

Then I provisioned my VM again from my host machine -- and my playbook ran fine without any problems.

A better solution would be to probably include a line in your vagrantfile that provisions python2 via the shell.
