Unable to force Artifactory-Server to download libs by request from Artifactory-Satellite

[Evgeny Morozov]

I have two Artefactory instances - on the Russia (satellite) and on the USA (server). And I want satellite to download jars which I need from server instance and if server hasn't them, then I want server to download it from maven central or other public.

So, as it mentioned on the other branches I set "Artifactory requests can retrieve remote artifacts" flag to true, but I can't reach what I need. It works like this: if my satellite or my server instance has *.jars, then I can receive it, but server can't ask to other public repositories if it hasn't what I need.

Artifactory version is 2.0.5 for both server and satellite.

I've read some branches of these forum, tried some; used google, but can't find any helpful. I would appreciate for any ideas.
Thanks for your time!

The "Artifactory requests can retrieve remote artifacts" flag is per virtual repository, so satellite Artifactories need to specify the URL of the virtual repository (http://server/artifactory/<virtual-repo-name>) for the remote Artifactory repository. If this is your setup and it doesn't work it may be a bug.
If, however, you are using the global "repo" virtual repository in the URL, then it will not download remote artifacts automatically.

HTH,

Really thanks for your answer! You are absolutely right, now I can confirm it, because I guessed it by myself. =)
It wasn't obvoius for me. After reading documentation I was sure that Artifactory will try to find needed .jar on the local repository and then on the cache and only then it will try to download. So I used only global "repo" and it of course didn't work.
I think it will be helpful to add this explanation to documentation.

Thank for your time!
