[Pulp-list] Create distribution issues

[Heide, Todd]

Reading backwards in the link that was posted in the reply, Under User setup, does Pulpcore and pulp-file need to be installed on the same box that pulp installer was run on? Maybe that is what I am missing.

Export the repo
# export REPO_HREF=$(http :24817/pulp/api/v3/repositories/file/file/ | jq -r '.results[] | select(.name == "foo") | .pulp_href')

But when I try to make the distribution it errors 404

# http POST :24817/pulp/api/v3/distributions/file/file/ name='baz' base_path='mypath' repository=$REPO_HREF``

FileDsitribution requires a publication not a repository. Instructions for that are here: https://pulp-file.readthedocs.io/en/latest/workflows/publish-host.html#publish-and-host
 
Did something get missed during the install?   I also tried manual distribution, fails at AnsibleRemote

The only one that seemed to have done anything is manual distribution.

}


So out of the three on this page, https://docs.pulpproject.org/workflows/exposing-content.html the only one to work is manual distribution of a publication. I can view and download from the web page.   Did I miss a plugin or a configuration somewhere? 

A File repository version contains all the files. However, File publications always include a manifest file that lists all the files and checksums for those files. The manifest is generated only when a publication is created from a repository version. 

RPM repositories work the same way and always require generating a publication first also.
