The Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal is a lightweight library of the expert knowledge you need to install, run, and support Red Hat products, even in environments with limited or no internet connectivity.

Chapter 1. New features and enhancements
Copy link

The following major new features and improvements of some existing features have been added to the Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal.

Product documentation
The Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal has more than 10,000 product documents that contain procedures and configuration guidance that you can reference offline to learn about and use Red Hat products.
Knowledgebase articles and solutions
The Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal has over 160,000 articles and solutions from the Red Hat Knowledgebase that you can reference offline to troubleshoot issues in your disconnected environment.
Open Container Initiative (OCI)-compliant image for x86_64 and aarch64
The Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal container image runs on many device architectures and container runtimes.
The Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal content updated frequently
Because Red Hat online content is constantly updated, the Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal is usually updated weekly. However, the Red Hat Offline Knowledge Portal releases rely on external factors so weekly releases are not guaranteed. In addition, releases can occur from Monday through Thursday.

Chapter 2. Known issues
Copy link

This version is affected by the following newly identified and previously known issues. A known issue is listed in all future release notes until resolved, at which point it is published as a fixed issue. If you encountered an issue that is not listed in this section, report it by using the button in the top right corner of this page.

Issue: If you are using Google Chrome, you might not be able to load http://localhost:8080 or https://localhost:8443. This is caused by a combination of the operating system settings and Google Chrome which results in the IPv6 address ::1 being selected instead of the IPV4 address 127.0.0.1. Google Chrome attempts to resolve localhost to IPv6.

Actual result:

  • Web pages on http://localhost:8080 or https://localhost:8443 do not open in Google Chrome.

  • Google Chrome displays one of the following messages:

    • "This page isn’t working"
    • "localhost didn’t send any data"
    • "ERR_EMPTY_RESPONSE"
    • "This site can’t be reached"
    • "ERR_CONNECTION_RESET"

Expected result: Web pages open as expected on http://localhost:8080 or https://localhost:8443.

Workaround: Use http://localhost4:8080 or http://127.0.0.1:8080 to force IPv4 resolution to the local address. localhost4 and localhost6 have been available as aliases for the IPv4 and IPv6 localhost addresses respectively since Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6. Use these aliases to ensure the address of the desired protocol is resolved. However, if your system does not have the localhost4 alias defined in the /etc/hosts file, you can use 127.0.0.1:8080.

For more information, see the webpages on localhost do not load in Google Chrome browser Knowledgebase article.
