Unable to clone a Git repo, server error


Jeremy Sutton (1313) | asked May 28 '13, 2:05 p.m.
I'm attempting to use the Git repositories tool to clone my public git repo into the JazzHub code base. Each time I enter my repo url in input box (on https://hub.jazz.net/code/git/git-repository.html) I get the following error:
{"HttpCode":500,"DetailedMessage":"UTF-8charset=UTF-8","Message":"Failed to handle /git/clone request for ","Severity":"Error","Code":0}

I've used the following urls for the repo, all with the same error:
https://github.com/suttonj/powerhour.git
git://github.com/suttonj/powerhour.git
https://github.com/suttonj/powerhour
http://github.com/suttonj/powerhour

Any help with the git cloning process would be appreciated!
Thanks,
- Jeremy

Hi Jeremy,

I just tried with my git repo https://github.com/ljhaywar/hello-world.git, and I was successful. 

I also tried with your git repo https://github.com/suttonj/powerhour.git, and I was successful.  I'm able to browse your files in your repo.

Are you authenticated when you're trying to clone your repo? I'm using FF 21.  What browser are you using?

@agarcher @srich @sbrandys Any ideas?

Hi Lauren,

I was using FF 17.0.5esr when I received the error. I've since tried on Chrome and it works fine. Seems like just a browser issue then.

Thanks,
Jeremy

Glad you got it working!  I'll open a work item to track the issue in FF 17.0.5esr in case it's not already known.

The team who owns that section of the code replied in the work item.  The JazzHub editor requires FF 20+.  They've made an update so users will know if they aren't using a compatible browser.
