you need to install distro module https://github.com/Azure/WALinuxAgent/blob/master/requirements.txt#L1

@DaisenC curious is it marketplace image from azure or different vm? In general marketplace images comes with guest agent and they should have this module

[DaisenC]

it is marketplace image from azure. but the customer install the python3.9.13 by himself. so it display the error. I tried to the way that you offered. but it still didn't work.

maybe this module is not in the new pythonpath. Customers need to debug if they are doing any customization.
