Hi,
Have tried making a http repository for my ESX servers instead of SCP'ing the tgz-files to local drives - seems like the right thing to do.
Anyway I get a "Invalid repository at http://iis_servername/ESX-1271567/: HTTP Error 404: Not found"
I have tried both on a IIS6 & Apache ( Apache running on port 8000 ) server using : 'esxupdate -v 10 -r http://apache_servername:8000/esx/ESX-1271567 update' with very similar resluts.
What I have done :
\- testet the the file / folder structure beneath the http-server is equal to that on the ESX server, when running esxupdate with local files : OK
\- testet DNS client resolution from the ESX host : OK
\- test URL from my admin pc ( pointing at the .xml-file ) : OK
\- esxcfg-firewall stop : OK
I have read the 'esx3_esxupdate.pdf' ( a few times now Image may be NSFW.
Clik here to view. ) - but it could be a very basic thing that I am missing as I can not see my test setup differs from the ones described in the manual.
Can someone please help ?
