Salt-bootstrap: broken repo path for Amazon Linux

[jworl]

Description of Issue/Question

receiving 404 not found
https://repo.saltproject.io/yum/amazon/latest/x86_64/latest/repodata/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] HTTPS Error 404 - Not Found

This path does not exist anymore. Manually looking, it seems "https://repo.saltproject.io/yum/amazon/" directory only contains the "2" folder. "latest" does not exist.

amazonlinux 1 is end of life, and the salt packages for it have been moved to https://archive.repo.saltproject.io

You can use -R archive.repo.saltproject.io as an argument to the bootstrap script if you want to use them. They are unsupported and all contain CVEs.

Ah. I understand. Thanks for the quick response! I just tried this with -R archive.repo.saltproject.io , but I receive the same error. Are there additional flags which I must set for this to work properly? I glanced through the documentation, but nothing stood out to me.

sudo sh install_salt.sh -R "archive.repo.saltproject.io" -j "$(cat /tmp/minion_conf)" -D

I don't think salt touches your repo files for salt if they already exist, you might have to rm -i /etc/yum.repos.d/salt* before you try again. it works for me on a fresh docker container.

That was it! Thank you!!
