Secure external WAPT server access (Apache)
Published: January 13, 2016 - 9:54 PM
Hello,
First of all, thank you for this tool, which is proving to be very promising for managing deployments and updates across multiple systems!
I've set up an externally accessible repository by configuring Apache with authentication (Auth Basic), following the tutorial here: https://wiki.lesfourmisduweb.org/index. ... t_de_passe.
However, I'd like to add the "WAPT server" component in addition to the repositories. However, in the console, I'm unable to specify a URL that contains the password and username (for example: https://username:password@server) - I always get an error message when I try to validate it (I can't read the full error message, as it's truncated).
While searching through the email list archives, I noticed that the repository address (repo_url) had to be modified to support basic authentication (ref: http://lists.tranquil.it/pipermail/wapt ... 01372.html). Perhaps this is also the case for the WAPT management server? If not, is this something related to my configuration, assuming the secure external repository is working?
Thank you!
