Hello,

I have the following problem.

zypper ref and zypper in docker

do not work. Instead I get the following errormessages:

Dienst ‘Advanced\_Systems\_Management\_Module\_12\_x86\_64’ wird aktualisiert.  
Problem beim Abrufen der Repository-Indexdatei fÃ¼r Dienst ‘Advanced\_Systems\_Management\_Module\_12\_x86\_64’:  
UngÃ¼ltiger EinhÃ¤ngepunkt des Mediums: [https://scc.suse.com/access/services/](https://scc.suse.com/access/services/)…

Bitte Ã¼berprÃ¼fen Sie, ob der URI gÃ¼ltig und zugÃ¤nglich ist.

In English that would mean sthg like:  
Service ‘Advanced\_Systems\_Management\_Module\_12\_x86\_64’ will be updated.  
Problem with the Repository-Index-file for service: ‘Advanced\_Systems\_Management\_Module\_12\_x86\_64’  
Invalid Mount Point for the medium: [https://scc.suse.com/access/services/](https://scc.suse.com/access/services/)…

Please check if the URI is valid and accessible.

Do I need to add credentials somewhere on the server in order to submit the license to SUSE?

Any help appreciated since it is kind of a blocker  
Thank you

Is the server registered with the SUSE Customer Center (SCC)? The URL  
for the Advanced Systems Management Module seems suspect to me. What  
does “zypper lr -u” report?

You should also note that Docker is provided from the Containers Module  
so you’ll need to register with SCC to get access to that.

Hi, thanks for your answer.

The activation key has been added now.  
But now only the SLES12-12-0 Repository is working.  
All other repositories are not including the Container-Repository Containers\_Module\_12\_x86\_64

Any ideas how I get the other repositorys as well.

Normally they should be/are included in our license here.  
Can I somehow fix the URLs of the other repository?

No actually the repository that worked was mounted. But not the online one.  
How do I Register the Server @ Suse?

I have a SCCcredentials-file in /etc/zypp/credentials.d

But there is no SUSECOnnect-file in /etc

You need to either use the SUSEConnect command to register or do so via  
YaST - please see  
[https://www.suse.com/documentation/sles-12/book\_sle\_deployment/data/sec\_update\_registersystem.html](https://www.suse.com/documentation/sles-12/book_sle_deployment/data/sec_update_registersystem.html)

The Containers module is free so registering SLES should give you access  
to that though you’ll need to add it via SUSEConnect or YaST.
