Hey BigFixers
I’m attempting something very simple: Distributing an .rpm package via BigFix Software Distribution.
But I’m running into trouble, and I’m having difficulty understanding what I’m missing.
We have SWD in our WebUI and I can create deployment fixlets. But when I try these fixlets made via SWD, they fail to deploy (log from first Relay):
Fri, 05 Aug 2022 12:24:48 +0200 - GatherMain (7936) - Download failed: aid=454393,index=1,sha1=e627cf430310aaff82fadb3e556169e9fd76407a,size=null,url=SWDProtocol%3a%2f%2f127.0.0.1%3a52311%2fuploads%2fE627CF430310AAFF82FADB3E556169E9FD76407A%2fagent-client-collector-2.9.0-el7-x86_64.rpm.bfswd
Reason: Unexpected HTTP response: 404 Not Found
I can confirm that the file exists via the “Export Software” action in the WebUI.
What I’m reading from the various documentation and posts is there is supposed to be a Software Distribution Content site which I can subscribe to via the License Overview. But when I check our License Overview for sites, there are no sites called Software Distribution. Only sites related to Patches (we use BigFix for Patching).
So how can I have Software Distribution as a WebUI app without having the Software Distribution site?
