Do you get this error in ChiliProject or are you trying to access the repository itself over http?

I have a similar? issue. I get '404 The entry or revision was not found in the repository" when looking at the 'Repository' tab on Chiliproject. I can do git ls-remote /path/to/git/repository and it returns information, but I do not have grack set up. Do I need to set up grack in order to look at a local repository?

You don't need grack, not, but ChiliProject will show an "entry or revision not found" error as long as you don't have anything in the repository. Try pushing a commit to it.

I can access the git repo over ssh fine from remote clients. That's not the issue.

The error I got is from chili, I access the repo from Chili through the file system since both the git repo and chili are on the same server.

OK, next ideas: Make sure the git executable is in the PATH of the user running your ChiliProject (or make sure it's right in the config file if you don't want to rely on PATH), and make sure passenger runs ChiliPorject as the user you think it does (Passenger has some user-switching features that might be surprising to people that don't know them…).

Hi,

I'm also having the issue with 2.3.0 with a cloned git repository even in "chiliproject/files/git/u-boot.git"
The Repository tab will always shows "404: The entry or revision was not found in the repository".

What was logged in production.log is as below,

Processing RepositoriesController#show (for 127.0.0.1 at 2011-10-17 16:53:14) [GET]
Parameters: {"action"=>"show", "id"=>"u-boot", "controller"=>"repositories"}
Rendering template within layouts/base
Rendering common/error (404)
Completed in 166ms (View: 31, DB: 5) | 404 Not Found [http://localhost/chiliproject/projects/u-boot/repository]

Please advise.

Thanks in adv.

James

James, could you please open a new forum thread so as to have only one problem per thread. Furthermore, please provide the ruby and rails versions you use, as well as which server (mongrel, webrick, apache+passenger, …) you use, thanks.

Hi Felix,

I've posted a new thread as requested.
https://www.chiliproject.org/boards/1/topics/858

My problem is very much similar to Zee case of using a local git repository.

Thanks.

James.

The symptom is the same, but there can (unfortunately) be a lot of causes for this…

Passenger was running with the nouser, it was not able to access the git repo on file system. That's what I found out so far, I have not gotten to change it. I'll change it and update the thread.
