Hi everyone.

I have installed a new kubernetes cluster and deployed AWX 13.  
I’m able to access the web console and try a few pings to check if the servers were reachable. But, I’m having a problem to synchronize our projects on git.

I try to put the proxy variables on Settings → Jobs → Environment Variables

{  
“HOME”: “/var/lib/awx”,  
“https\_proxy”: “xxxx”,  
“http\_proxy”: “xxxx”,  
“no\_proxy”: “xxxx”  
}

But I’m getting the following error:

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! =\> {“changed”: false, “msg”: “Failed to checkout branch master”, “rc”: 1, “stderr”: “error: pathspec ‘master’ did not match any file(s) known to git.\n”, “stderr\_lines”: [“error: pathspec ‘master’ did not match any file(s) known to git.”], “stdout”: “”, “stdout\_lines”: }

I have also tried run the git command by connecting directly to the pod and it works. But I had to export the http\_proxy variable.  
I believe the problem is related with the proxy at a system level.

Is it possible to modfiy the config maps to add the variable or I will have to change the deployment to add the env variable at pod level?

Thanks,  
Daniel
