Zypper update Permission Denied

Hi everyone,

Let me present myself as a person with limited knowledge about Linux Administration. I need to update a Linux system currently running with the following version:

NAME=“SLES_SAP”
VERSION=“12.0.1”
VERSION_ID=“12.0.1”
PRETTY_NAME=“SUSE Linux Enterprise Server for SAP Applications 12”
ID=“sles_sap”
ANSI_COLOR=“0;32”
CPE_NAME=“cpe:/o:suse:sles_sap:12”

To SLES for SAP Applications 12 SP3.

After reviewing few videos about how to proceed, I’m trying with command zypper update, however I’m getting the following error:

Permission to access ‘https://updates.suse.com/SUSE/Updates/SLE-SAP/12-SP3/x86_64/update/repodata/repomd.xml?v7UJeGUtXosuEEIKE8j41m2J-A0WAIxG8LPtw7T2Y7IC6pL53zF0zTG233J1CIIuovnYZyIo57A_Ybh1tq6atHStOnmp8T1NjSyYnNp8TTOrBimlJRbD231-cXr1yby8g20dDUOwE_Y’ denied.

I have googled but not able to find a clear answer on how to overcome the issue.

I would be very grateful if someone here could provide some directions about how to fix the issue.

Thanks in advance,

I had a similar issue, where I needed to update locally a package to fix this.
See below articles, if you can find a match for your scenario :

Thanks a lot for these insights, much appreciated. I’ll try and see how I go.
