Description Kristofer Lundgren 2023-11-02 13:43:20 UTC
Configuring clients for custom stand-alone repositories:

https://documentation.suse.com/sles/15-SP4/html/SLES-all/cha-rmt-client.html#rmt-client-custom-repo

8<---
1. Point your Web browser to the following RMT server URL:

   https://RMT_SERVER_HOSTNAME/repo/

2. Navigate the browser through the directory structure to your custom repository's repodata/ subdirectory."

The SUSE RMT server deployed using the Kubernetes Helm chart does not support directory browsing.

It is very hard to debug and browse for content in the RMT server without the directory browsing capability.

Best regards,

This is *not* a duplicate of bug 1216820.
Please re-open.

1216820 contained two bug reports, where one was solved. But this is still a valid issue.

re-pasting reply from the reporter:

"The ingress is properly configured (I can download individual files) but the RMT server does not support directory browsing."


@Natnael: any more ideas to solve this issue?
