problems with the settings

[alex1702]

Hi,

I have the problem that the settings are not apparently taken properly. I have another user set in the options, but in the logs I see "git" as user.

Log output when calling the repository page for a project

Thanks for your help. And sorry for my bad english. xD

It seems that gitolite isn't running correctly or not set up to use from openproject. This would result in the project 'test.git' to not be created through OpenProject and thus it fails to display it.

You need a correctly set up gitolite that runs as a seperate user than openproject (you specified the gitolite user as openproject, which will not work.

Ensure you've followed all steps in the installation tutorial and execute the following commands on the shell, as the user running openproject.

I'm assuming your gitolite user is named git, if its named otherwise, you'll need to update the following commands respectively

1. openproject$ sudo -n -i -u git ls repositories should display all repositories located under the gitolite user's $HOME/repositories.
2. openproject$ ssh -i git@localhost info

    hello openproject, this is git@dev running gitolite3 v3.x-x on git x.x.x.
        R W  gitolite-admin
        R W  testing

If these commands both work fine, please show me your revisions_git configuration.

[alex1702]

ok, now i have the user "opgit" and the commands works. the configtest shows the same error

Ah, yes. The config tests are cached through Rails.cache, you can clear them through rake tmp:clear, or get the latest commit (bb9d3cd10912faf82d6f512d0db07ba4e1bbb0b5) which fixes just that.

[alex1702]

ok, so the problem is solved with the configtest. But apparently he created me no repositories, if I do the settings under project settings. Settings:

Gitolite Storage Configuration

Gitolite Admin repository: /home/opgit/repositories/gitolite-admin.git/
Location of the Gitolite Admin repository

Gitolite repositories base path: home/opgit/repositories/
(Relative to Gitolite user home) 

error log when I create the git repo in project settings:

I assume the delayed_jobs worker isn't running. I'll have to add this to the installation tutorial to ensure it is loaded, as the plugin relies on it for all I/O access.

Try RAILS_ENV=production script/delayed_job start.

/edit: I've updated the installation tutorial: https://github.com/oliverguenther/openproject-revisions_git/blob/dev/README.md#4-starting-delayed_jobs

[alex1702]

hmm, now i get permission errors. has the plugin directly access to the folder?

The gitolite-admin.git must be cloned locally using the openproject user. This is due to the fact that openproject acts on the (cloned) gitolite-admin.git repository and commits changes to gitolite, which then adds the project and sets up any ssh keys configured with it.

This is part of the preliminary setup for this plugin (cite: you have successfully cloned the gitolite-admin.git repository from the user running OpenProject.) In my setup this worked as follows:

1. git clone ssh://git@localhost:gitolite-admin /home/openproject/gitolite-admin.git
2. Change the setting Gitolite Admin repository of OpenProject Revisions/Git to that path /home/openproject/gitolite-admin.git
3. Try again.

Aha , one step further :laughing: You need to rebuild libgit2/rugged with SSH support, see this issue: https://github.com/libgit2/rugged/issues/299

Under Debian/Ubuntu this currently is libssh2.1-dev. Simple reinstall the rugged gem afterwards:

$ gem uninstall foo
$ bundle update

I'll have another thing to add to the preliminary step of the tutorial ;)
