Unknown host: urm.nvidia.com when running build_install_gxf_release.sh (x86)

[robotville]

Hello,
I am getting the following error when trying to run build_install_gxf_release.sh on an x86 platform with a 2080ti GPU:
ERROR: An error occurred during the fetch of repository 'python_x86_64':
Error downloading [https://urm.nvidia.com/artifactory/sw-isaac-gxf-generic-local/dependencies/internal/python_x86_64_3_8.tar.xz] to /home/admin/.cache/bazel/_bazel_admin/47f04344960a96319c4a75eb73e29f45/external/python_x86_64/temp16112079354930342697/python_x86_64_3_8.tar.xz: Unknown host: urm.nvidia.com

I tried all of the suggestions here and they did not help:

I am using the Docker container from the isaac ros2 tutorials - isaac_ros_dev-x86_64

Thanks for the report! This is failing because the build is still mistakenly referring to internal assets and not their public locations. We'll update the references shortly.

Hey Hemal, it seems like I ran into the same issue. I'm trying to build com_nvidia_gxf with Bazel as described in its README, and I also get Unknown host: urm.nvidia.com.

[hemalshahNV]

@WoutVrs , what version are you seeing this on? That's an internal repository that our release process should have scrubbed out. I see the references but they should not be on the path to building. We'll try locally again and flush out these internal references, will report back.

[WoutVrs]

I was trying to build from main, should I try with a specific release?

[ndam-hexagon]

I don't know if that can help you at all, but I have a PR open to fix the CMake code that should allow you to build most of GXF without requiring access to the private repositories from Nvidia: #7

Disclairmer, we are not using the superbuild (ie. we install all of the build dependencies system wide)
