SMLM 5.02 - not able to bootstrap minion on debian 12

SUSE Multi Linux Manager
1

Hello,

I have followed the instructions to register an debian 12 agent, also added the software channel.
But adding the system to SMLM fails.
What to do, to get debian clients to be managed?

Which registration method are you using to register your Debian 12 client? See https://documentation.suse.com/suma/5.0/en/suse-manager/client-configuration/registration-methods.html

I’m not sure about Debian but with SUSE/openSUSE clients it now uses the venv-salt-minion package instead of the previous salt-minion package.

I have tried that via gui.
Now I have used the bootstrap script method, revealing a file not found (file “InRelease”) isn’t in the web directory
