Problem:
We want to upload a custom package each day so we can install and upgrade it overtime to know when a system is patched.
I’ve made a simple .deb file that makes a file in json format in /etc/ansible/facts.d/ and if i install it it also works. If i upload it through the UI that also works fully. But it’s when i upload it with hammer that i get an empty row and the subscription-manager clients also report they can’t find the package.
Looking with hammer, i see in the deb-package list an ID created but not FILENAME:
Trying to remove said .deb also resulsts in a task stuck:
Error the clients get once we upload the package using hammer:
Failed to fetch katello://foreman.server.lan/pulp/deb/comp/Production/CV_UBUNTU_22-04/custom/Today_I_Patched_Package/Today_I_Patched_Package/dists/default/all/binary-amd64/Packages 404 Not Found
As root i upload the package from the current directory like so:
hammer repository upload-content --path pocket_mouse.deb --organization comp --product “Today I Patched Package” --name “Today I Patched Package”
A seperate product and repo is made with the same name, so we can include the product into every CV.
The upload also goes smoothly: Successfully uploaded file pocket_mouse.deb
I’ve also tried a package that was sync’d from ubuntu and that one also has the same behavior, so i believe the way i packaged shouldn’t be the issue.
Does anyone have a suggestion how i can find more information how to find a possible workaround/the root cause that i or maybe we can provide to fix in foreman itself (if applicable)?
Expected outcome:
deb package is uploaded if it isn’t already in the repository.
