Hi, Couldn't help notice that GitLab have a "sslcacert" line at the end of their repo config but no place for this configuration in Satellite 6: [gitlab_gitlab-ce] name=gitlab_gitlab-ce baseurl=https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/el/7/$basearch repo_gpgcheck=1 gpgcheck=0 enabled=1 gpgkey=https://packages.gitlab.com/gitlab/gitlab-ce/gpgkey sslverify=1 sslcacert=/etc/pki/tls/certs/ca-bundle.crt My question, is this why the metadata cannot be retrieved by Satellite OR are the metdata/repos malformed? Regards, JP Pitout
Could installing this cert in a keystore somewhere aleviate this problem?
(In reply to jean-pierre.pitout from comment #13) > Could installing this cert in a keystore somewhere aleviate this problem? Hello, the gitlab repositories are malformed, the cert will not help you. For more details of this issue you could check upstream bug.
How are they malformed? What is the definition of a well formed yum repo? I can't find a public definition anywhere. If this is malformed why does yum work?

@Ina: Hello, I believe that we should at least tell this to the user while the sync is in progress. As far as I know, it can be checked if the metadata are correct almost in the beginning of the complete process. Since there are downloaded two files - other.db and filelist.db which is the corrupted one. The only step what should be done is checking the integrity, if the filelist.db provided the same list of keys as the other.db (package names if I remember it correctly). And if not, then there should be thrown some exception which will state this instead of letting the process go till it reach the end where all the downloaded (working) data are just removed and everything is pretending that it went great.

Agree, the purpose of the upstream bugfix would be to fail gracefully with some meaningful message.

Verified. Tested with Satellite 6.3 - Snap 13 Check the attached Screenshot, the error about malformed metadata is reported during syncing instead of the original confusing behavior. This was the goal of the Pulp developers as far as I can tell from this thread and https://pulp.plan.io/issues/1287#note-9 It looks like there is no intention from Pulp's side of working around malformed repositories like these, so I'm going to go with verify with the solution proposed, and mark Ina/mhrivnak as NEEDINFO: please answer if there is any intention of working around such repos, and if so, open a BZ o link to it. Thanks.
Created attachment 1319967 [details] Warning message when syncing Gitlab CE repo
we do not plan to workaround this kind of malformed repos.
