Closed astrophpeter closed 8 years ago

astrophpeter commented 8 years ago

Description

Cannot accept the invitation to homework one from the link in the email

Attempted Fixes

Signing out and back into git hub

Error Message(s)

I get one of the following errors when I try and accept:

Cannot retrieve this organizations repo plan, please reauthenticate your token. Repository: name already exists on this account. You are forbidden from performing this action on github.com

cswiercz commented 8 years ago

Your repository has been created: https://github.com/uwhpsc-2016/homework1-petermcgill94

I think there was a timing issue where the repo was created but the fact that it was created was not reported in time. I'm not sure why this occurred. I've contacted GitHub about this.

akihis2 commented 8 years ago

I am not sure if I should start a new issue or should just post here, but I am having exact same issue when I am trying to accept the invite. I have signed out from GitHub completely, waited 10 or mote minute, cleared all data from browser, and tried again, but it does not seem to help. GitHub also gives 404 error page if I try to navigate to the URL of the repository manually using the instruction given in the most recent email.

astrophpeter commented 8 years ago

I am having the same problem as @akihis2, still.

cswiercz commented 8 years ago

@akihis2 @petermcgill94 I just now tried to manually give each of you read/write access to your respective repositories.

Let me know if this works.

astrophpeter commented 8 years ago

Issue resolved, thanks!

qpskcn1 commented 8 years ago

I am having the same issue as well. I have already tried to restart the browser completely and wait like 10 minutes, still not worked.

cswiercz commented 8 years ago

@qpskcn1 From my end it looks like your situation is a bit different from the others since a private repo hasn't even been created. I have emailed GitHub about this issue and will let you know the status.

akihis2 commented 8 years ago

Issue resolved as well. Thank you for your quick help.

briankchan commented 8 years ago

I also still have this issue after logging out and back in and trying a different browser.

cswiercz commented 8 years ago

@qpskcn1 I just received a notification that your private repo was created. Let me know if you able to access it at https://github.com/uwhpsc-2016/homework1-qpskcn1

@iluvredwall I'm not sure if @qpskcn1 's repo just took a long time to create (for whatever reason on GitHub's end) or if I needed to prod GitHub for them to finish the job. I will let you know when I receive a notification that your repo has been created.

qpskcn1 commented 8 years ago

@cswiercz I just randomly reopened the link and accepted the homework successfully. Thank you so much!

cswiercz commented 8 years ago

@cswiercz I just accepted the homework and successfully, thank you so much!

Whew! That’s a relief.

joekasp commented 8 years ago

I've tried everything described (logging out, different browsers, waiting) and still no luck.

werrah commented 8 years ago

I'm having the same issue.

atom-moyer commented 8 years ago

I have the same problem too.

cswiercz commented 8 years ago

@iluvredwall @joekasp @werrah @atom-moyer Unfortunately, this seems to be an issue on GitHub's end. Follow the instructions I emailed the class about here: https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1038251/discussion_topics/3298851

If you've followed these instructions already can you confirm that they worked / didn't work?

joekasp commented 8 years ago

@cswiercz I just got a reply from the GitHub Education staff:

Hi joekasp,

If you are still experiencing this issue please have your instructor log out of Classroom for GitHub, then log back in. If the issue persists then your instructor should open an issue here:

https://github.com/education/classroom/issues

Cheers, Scott

cswiercz commented 8 years ago

Try now. The repo exists but GitHub has their permissions mixed up.

werrah commented 8 years ago

That works. Thank you so much!
