Answer
I tried to reproduce the issue, and it fails when you run yum with python3 instead of python2:
python3 /usr/bin/yum install java-11-amazon-corretto-headless File "/usr/bin/yum", line 30 except KeyboardInterrupt, e: ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax
You should use python2, not python3 for yum:
python2 /usr/bin/yum install java-11-amazon-corretto-headless
It seems that in your instance default python version was changed to python3.
