I’m unable to build because of connection to outside repositories (we use artifactory). I can’t find where to change this as I usually can do so in the Dockerfile or Makefile.

The awx-ee in the latest build is reporting errors with kerberos authentication due to encryption method, so I need a custom image to deal with this

Hi,

You should be able to set the image URL in the “execution-environment.yml” file like so:

build\_arg\_defaults:

EE\_BASE\_IMAGE: ‘[quay.io/ansible/ansible-runner:stable-2.12-devel](http://quay.io/ansible/ansible-runner:stable-2.12-devel)’

Example here: [https://github.com/antuelle78/ansible-builder-awxee](https://github.com/antuelle78/ansible-builder-awxee)

Hope that helps.

Regards,

Antuelle78

Seems like ran assemble adds back in base internet repos and then I get issues with a bunch of the packages that get upgraded:

I replaced the base image with one I built internally and removed all repos then added our repos in the build. Those CentOS ones should not be there - can’t be there - won’t work if there are.
