Hello All, I am trying to setup a git repository and then publish it using git-daemon and inetd for other developers in the network to access the sources. Server Setup ------------------- Host system running on Fedora Core 8 Git version 1.5.4.3 A summary of what I have done to setup the Git server is as follows: $ mkdir /home/kanagesh/test-repo $ cd test-repo $ vi test.c <insert text, save, quit> $ git-init-db $ git-config user.name kanagesh $ git-config user.email rkanagesh@xxxxxxxxx $ git-add test.c $ git-commit -a -m"Initial Commit" # mkdir -p /var/cache/git # ln -s /home/kanagesh/test-repo/.git test-repo # ls -l test-repo -> /home/kanagesh/test-repo/.git xinetd has been setup to listen for git requests on port 9418 and spawn git-daemon. This has been done by placing a config file named 'git' under /etc/xinetd.d. The contents of the config file is as follows: service git { disable = no type = UNLISTED port = 9418 socket_type = stream wait = no user = nobody server = /usr/local/bin/git-daemon server_args = --inetd --export-all --base-path=/var/cache/git --syslog --verbose log_on_failure += USERID } Clone from the Server ------------------------------- When I attempt to clone the source from the Git server, I end up with the following error: [kanagesh@localhost test]$ git-clone git://192.168.13.171/test-repo Initialized empty Git repository in /home/kanagesh/work/test/test-repo/.git/ fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly fetch-pack from 'git://192.168.13.171/test-repo' failed. On checking the log messages in /var/log/messages, I see the following: May 7 17:29:19 localhost xinetd[17108]: START: git pid=17128 from=::ffff:192.168.13.171 May 7 17:29:19 localhost git-daemon: [17128] Connection from 192.168.13.171:42360 May 7 17:29:19 localhost git-daemon: [17128] Extended attributes (21 bytes) exist <host=192.168.13.171> May 7 17:29:19 localhost git-daemon: [17128] Request upload-pack for '/test-repo' May 7 17:29:19 localhost xinetd[17108]: EXIT: git status=255 pid=17128 duration=0(sec) Can anyone tell me what I am doing incorrectly? Any pointers on how to get a more verbose log from git-daemon would also be very helpful. Thanks in advance.
