Guessing you fixed it? We run Netbox on CentOS 8 here, there's a small (like 1 or 2) amount of differences from the official documentation.

For anyone installing on CentOS 8 without need for LDAP, I made a playbook that does it for you. You can find it here: https://github.com/adamwoolhether/NetBox4CentOS8

Check out the playbook I shared above? You can install the whole thing in a matter of minutes...

You're error specifically sounds like you didn't initialize the postgresql database.

So i'm going through the ansible playbook...any reason you didn't separate this out like a traditional playbook? I'm trying to do that now. Otherwise it looks good.

Also why use pip when python3-psycopg2.x86_64 & python3-pexpect.noarch are available through dnf/yum?
