Doc Type: Bug Fix
Doc Text:
.Image Building no longer fails when using `lorax-composer` API Previously, when using `lorax-composer` API from a subscribed RHEL system, the image building process always failed. Anaconda could not access the repositories, because the subscription certificates from the host are not passed through. To fix the issue update `lorax-composer`, `pykickstart`, and `Anaconda` packages. That will allow to pass supported CDN certificates.

Description Lars Karlitski 2019-01-07 11:20:16 UTC 
When using lorax-composer from a subscribed RHEL system, the image building process always fails.

This is because Anaconda cannot access the repositories, because the subscription certificates from the host are not passed through.

This was already a problem in RHEL 7:

I've proposed a fix for this upstream, but it depends on changes in pykickstart and anaconda (I'll attach bugs shortly here):

Comment 7 Alexander Todorov 2019-08-23 12:54:44 UTC 
Managed to build an image by only enabling redhat.repo via subscrition manager. Moving to VERIFIED.
