Creating an ansible execution environment with a container image from a container repository with a self-signed certificate

Leave a reply

When you try to build an ansible execution environment, you may need to use a container repository with a self-signed certificate.

This will fail with the following error;

.....
ERROR! Unknown error when attempting to call Galaxy at 'https://<URL>/api': <urlopen error [SSL: CERTIFICATE_VERIFY_FAILED] certificate verify failed: unable to get local issuer certificate (_ssl.c:1129)>
Error: error building at STEP "RUN ANSIBLE_GALAXY_DISABLE_GPG_VERIFY=1 ansible-galaxy collection install $ANSIBLE_GALAXY_CLI_COLLECTION_OPTS -r requirements.yml --collections-path "/usr/share/ansible/collections"": error while running runtime: exit status 1

This can be resolved by adding “ANSIBLE_GALAXY_CLI_COLLECTION_OPTS : “–ignore-certs” “
