Other relevant data:
I’m trying to provision Ubuntu Server 24.04 and running in to some problems.
First, Foreman :: Provisioning Ubuntu Autoinstall and other pages tell me I need to put a bunch of files under /var/www/html/pub, but since I’m not running Katello that directory isn’t used. I put the snippet from Katello in /etc/httpd/conf.d/05-foreman{-ssl}.d/06-pub.conf and created /etc/httpd/conf.modules.d/alias.load, which works, but it gets clobbered the next time I run foreman-installer. I understand I need to put something in custom-hiera.yaml, but it seems to be intentionally undocumented. Any suggestions?
[While I was typing this up I decided I want to troubleshoot my other problem further myself.]
