I get error when i try to install Griddb database

Question

I'm trying to install Griddb on Centos 8 by running rpm file:

sudo rpm -i griddb_nosql-4.3.0-1.linux.x86_64.rpm

but i get this error:

error: Failed dependencies:
    /usr/bin/python is needed by griddb_nosql-4.3.0-1.linux.x86_64

it seems like Griddb can't find python, but python is installed on my computer. I checked if python works by running this command: python -V

and it works completely fine, that's why i have no idea what's the problem.

There is no `/usr/bin/python` in CentOS 8 by default. `rpm -i` will check for files installed from an rpm package. If you created a symlink `python -> python2` it is unknown to the RPM data base. — Knud Larsen, May 06 '20 at 14:35
What happens if you install the package with dnf ? I.e. like `# dnf install ./griddb_nosql-4.3.0-1.linux.x86_64.rpm` — Knud Larsen, May 08 '20 at 21:32
I've tried with `rpm` command only, but ok, I will try to install it with `dnf` command. — Андрей Новиков, May 08 '20 at 23:18

Make sure you are running Python 3. According to the page https://github.com/griddb/python_client it mentions the operating environment supported to be Python 3.6

$python --version
$python3 --version

For me, I have Python 2.7.18 and Python 3.7.9 installed. I was able to get the client installed using the command python3 -m pip install griddb-python (as root).
