I am trying to import my repo I am hosting on my server.
I can add my repository simply with: sudo zypper ar -f URL ALIAS
or sudo zypper ar -r URL/file.repo
on openSUSE but I cannot add it in SuseStudio.
It says: Importing the repository ‘’ () failed:
Where is the problem?

Where is your server located? ie, is it behind a firewall? If so, is
port forwarding enabled to get the connection to your server?

My Repo is on my public server where I am also hosting my website. I can browse through the repo and add it in opensuse manually. Why should I need portforwarding then? If this would be the problem I should not be able to add it manually too.

There are a number of ways to set up a repo server, and if you’re behind
a firewall, that would explain why it’s not importing properly, so I
wanted to eliminate that.
Since that’s not the issue, we’ll need more information about how the repo
is set up and its connectivity in order to provide further assistance.

The Url is repo.lycheelinux.com.
I created it locally on my computer and uploaded it with rsync to the server.

In looking at the import, it looks like you need to supply the path to
the root of the repo rather than the path to the .repo file.
I tried that and it seems to start, but then it throws an error as well -
but it looks like something they’ll need to look at on the backend. If
you click the “Forum” link at the bottom of susestudio.com (when logged
in), that’ll get your question to the right people.

The URL. http://repo.lycheelinux.com is what you should use, leave off
the /[file].repo part of it, as it’s not needed.

Let me see if I can poke someone, as the URL that you should use doesn’t
seem to be working either.

Hi
Why host something that can already be added direct from OBS into SUSE
Studio? For random rpm’s, just upload them?
Owncloud use OBS directly to create all there rpms etc for distribution.

I already tried it without the .repo file.
Thanks.
I just uploaded some test packages. It is much nicer for me to have my own repository.

You hadn’t mentioned that - not sure how we were supposed to know that
without you telling us that.
Is there any other information - things you’ve tried, etc - that you
might be assuming we know?

Sorry I tried also signed and unsigned. Nothing more I think.
I works with yum and zypper in opensuse but not in SUSEStudio.

I’ve asked that someone poke the person who’s supposed to be monitoring
the mailing list/forum for Studio, so hopefully you’ll get an answer over
there shortly. To diagnose this requires (I think) someone on the backend
to look and see what error’s being generated there.

Yeah the error which is displayed is not really helping me 
I have not been contacted in any way yet?

Try posting to that list again (the “forum” link on the SUSE Studio
site). Might be that they couldn’t find the post easily.
