jfrog rt del 404 could not locate artifact

Question

I am using the jfrog CLI. I use the same values for "rt" : config, upload, search. But it breaks when I try a "delete". It partially works in that it finds the file for a delete when it looks it up, but when it tries to delete the file object, it adds a REPO: /path and then errors. Any ideas as to why it uses a "REPO: /path" versus "repo/path"?
Search finds it with the "repo/path"?

Code: jfrog rt delete --user=xxxx --password=##### -url=https://server.domain/artifactory REPO_NAME/dir/dir/dir/dir/file.rpm

Get: [Info] Searching artifacts... [Info] Found 1 artifact. AXONE-YUM/soup/axone-layer-zero/CentOS/matt/GeoIP-1.5.0-11.el7.x86_64.rpm Are you sure you want to delete the above paths?

install jfrog CLI

Add proper certificate to .jrog folder

Run below:

jfrog rt c

#Enter server url

#API Key: blank

user ID

Password

Now it encrypts password. You are ready to go.

Try

jfrog rt del repo path/version/ --quiet=true

(no need of full url, straight from repo)
