Hi I have set all permissions to 777 in the project directory and in the .git directory but still get the same error message. I am using cgit v.0.9
I have played around with the cgitrc file, for repo.path tried: repo.path=/root/projects/proj/.git repo.path=/root/projects/proj/proj.git repo.url=proj1 repo.path=/root/projects/proj/.git repo.desc=the master foo repository [email protected] repo.readme=info/web/about.html On Sat, Jun 18, 2011 at 3:10 AM, Lars Hjemli <[email protected]> wrote: > [Forgot to CC the list] > > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > From: Lars Hjemli <[email protected]> > Date: Sat, Jun 18, 2011 at 09:09 > Subject: Re: Unable to browse Public repo > To: Dejan Tolj <[email protected]> > > > On Sat, Jun 18, 2011 at 00:12, Dejan Tolj <[email protected]> wrote: >> After installing cgit, I went into the configuration and changed this: >> >> repo.url=test >> repo.path=/home/dtolj/repositories/test >> repo.desc=the master foo repository >> [email protected] >> repo.readme=info/web/about.html >> >> I create a new public repo like so: >> git init --bare /home/dtolj/repositories/test >> >> But I get an error message: >> Not a git repository: '/home/dtolj/repositories/test' > > This is usually a permission problem: cgit needs to stat a few files > in the repo and read the content of HEAD when "opening" the repo, and > if this fails you'll get the quoted error message.
