[Devsandbox] Failures during the project import after Get Started workspace startup - Couldn't import http://172.30.145.30:8080/resources/quarkus-quarkus-quickstarts-main.zip: curl: (7) Failed to connect to 172.30.145.30 port 8080: Connection timed out

Describe the bug

Che version

CRW 2.8

Steps to reproduce

1. Go to Get Started Tab workspaces.openshift.com#get-started
2. Start one of the samples e.g. quarkus
3. ERROR: workspace is started but the project can not be imported:

Expected behavior

Workspace started without problems

Runtime

• OSD 4.7

Eclipse Che Logs

Additional context

devfile of the created workspace looks bizarre and reference to the cluster-specific zip source:

projects:
  - name: quarkus-quickstarts
    source:
      location: 'http://172.30.59.26:8080/resources/quarkus-quarkus-quickstarts-main.zip'
      type: zip

Dogfooding instance and https://www.eclipse.org/che/getting-started/cloud/ are also affected

The culprit is the incorrect cluster-specific location to the zip files e.g.:

- name: quarkus-quickstarts
    source:
      location: 'http://172.30.189.177:8080/resources/quarkus-quarkus-quickstarts-main.zip'
      type: zip

The issue has been fixed on workspaces.openshift.com.
Until there will be a proper implementation [1] of support of both internal & external registries the SOP for fixing the setup is:

• switching CR back to the internal registry:
  - remove devfileRegistryUrl from CR
  - set externalDevfileRegistry: false
• restarting the devfile registry pod (CHE_DEVFILE_REGISTRY_URL should be set [2] correctly now)
  - just delete the devfile registry pod (it will be re-created with the right env var)
• setting back the external registries in CR (internal + community):
  - set externalDevfileRegistry: true
  - set `devfileRegistryUrl: link_to_internal_registry link_to_external_registry"
