/var/lib/awx directory does not exist after AWX installation.

My employer wants to look at Ansible and AWX for automation. I have install AWX 18.0.0 on RHEL 8 using the operator method and Minikube as the target.

The /var/lib/awx directory does not exist on my VM after installation. I do not know Docker or Kubernetes. If the /var/lib/awx directory is supposed to exist in one of the containers, I have not found the documentation that states how I am supposed to modify it. I have manually added the /var/lib/awx/projects directory on my test VM and then created a project directory with a test YML file but AWX does not see the project directory. Can someone please direct me to the documentation on how to do this?

Thanks,

Hello,

The /var/lib/awx directory exists inside the AWX containers.
But the recommended way to import a project is using a SCM, upload your playbook to any Git server and import it following the docs
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible-tower/latest/html/userguide/projects.html#add-a-new-project

Good luck!
