 Check the names in group_vars! They need to match the name of the group in the inventory file.
-====== Tested on ======
+===== AttributeError: module 'lib' has no attribute 'OpenSSL_add_all_algorithms' =====
-  *
+Check versions of ansible and dependencies. This was caused by the upgraded cryptography package (and using the old ansible version - 2.9.27) which was being source from ''/usr/local/lib/python3.10/dist-packages/''. This fixed it:
+  sudo pip uninstall cryptography
+to uninstall from system directory and then run this (notice no sudo) to install it in user's directory ''/home/user/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages''
+  pip install cryptography==2.6.1
+Or just use a newer version of ansible which can use newer version of cryptography package.
+===== .local/bin/ansible: No such file or directory =====
+Happened when pip installing 9.3.0 version over 2.9.27.
+Uninstall old version first
+  pip uninstall 2.9.27
+Make sure no ansible dirs are leftover:
+  ~$ ls /home/antisa/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ansible*
+  ls: cannot access '/home/antisa/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ansible*': No such file or directory
+Now install via pip
+  pip install ansible
+===== unsupported locale setting =====
+  ERROR: Ansible could not initialize the preferred locale: unsupported locale setting
+This might happen when you ssh into a server which doesn't have your locale generated (the one you are using on your local machine) and you are forwarding the locale over ssh (see ''SendEnv'' and ''AcceptEnv'' in ssh_config and sshd_config on your machine and server respectively).
+Fix is to simply generate the locale:
+  vi /etc/locale.gen
+uncomment your locale e.g.
+  hr_HR.UTF-8
+Then run
+  locale-gen
+===== an unexpected keyword argument 'cert_file' =====
+<code>
+[WARNING]: Skipping Galaxy server https://old-galaxy.ansible.com/. Got an unexpected error when getting available versions of
+collection community.docker: Unknown error when attempting to call Galaxy at 'https://old-galaxy.ansible.com/api':
+HTTPSConnection.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'cert_file'. HTTPSConnection.__init__() got an unexpected keyword
+argument 'cert_file'
+ERROR! Unknown error when attempting to call Galaxy at 'https://old-galaxy.ansible.com/api': HTTPSConnection.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'cert_file'. HTTPSConnection.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'cert_file'
+</code>
+Try a different (newer) ansible version.
