you can remove them via the specification of empty parameters:


  --katello-proxy-password=""
    --katello-proxy-port=""
    --katello-proxy-url=""
    --katello-proxy-username=""


but having an option to --katello-proxy-unset would be much simpler

This has been mitigated with a katello-installer check to verify if a proxy http/s env is set and will stop the installer from running until that is corrected

Moving to POST

*** Bug 1284498 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***

Failed on Satellite-6.3 Snap 11.

There is no option yet (nor --katello-proxy-unset or --katello-proxy="false") to unset the http_proxy. Setting --katello-proxy-* parameters to empty strings fails as well, requiring to provide a url. Manually resetting is still required.

It's good to know that kafo automatically creates --reset-<param> options but these appear to be undocumented other than https://github.com/theforeman/kafo#resetting-an-argument. I checked foreman-installer --help and man foreman-installer and couldn't find it in either.

The correct workaround would be to use --reset-katello-proxy-url --reset-katello-proxy-port --reset-katello-proxy-username --reset-katello-proxy-password.

There is also a difference in how the parameters are used. katello.yaml only sets proxy config if the url is non-empty while pulp configs output every single parameter with a value or null if empty. Aligning these behaviours might be a good thing so that just unsetting the url parameter (that should be called host, but that's a different matter) would result in not using a proxy and simplying to --reset-katello-proxy-url.

I have created this based on the comment from Ewoud:

https://access.redhat.com/solutions/3174751

If you would like this feature in the installer please open an RFE, this bug is related to having a proxy set with bash env variables and then running the installer which there is a check for.

Setting back on QA

Verified !

@ Satellite 6.3 snap 27

As per comment 12, I ran following command to unset the proxy:
```
# satellite-installer --scenario satellite -v --reset-katello-proxy-url --reset-katello-proxy-port --reset-katello-proxy-username --reset-katello-proxy-password
```

The installer command is successful and I see the proxy is disabled all over the conf files.

Specially I see in /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/yum_importer.json is et to null. And also in other json files like ostree and docker.

# cat /etc/pulp/server/plugins.conf.d/yum_importer.json
{
    
    "proxy_host": null,
    
    
    "proxy_port": null,
    
    
    "proxy_username": null,
    
    
    "proxy_password": null,
    
    
    "max_speed": null
    
}

Hence changing the state to verified.
