Are there any compatibility issues for SVN in AWS EC2 ?
It is because I am trying to list the objects which are present in my repository in EC2 with this command:
svn list https://svn.companyname.net/svn/abc-de-fgh-lm/.
but we get an error :
Error Code:
svn: E170013
svn: E130005
However if I try to list the objects in an another physical unix server, we are able to access the objects.
Are there any compatibility issues for SVN in AWS EC2 ?
No.
Note that it is not possible to help without knowing all the details about your SVN installation. Version, configuration, reproduction script etc.

Background
I have a system where when I push changes to my Repository, A web hook sends a request to my site which runs a bash script to pull the changes and copy any updated files.
I added a second repository with its own deploy key but after doing so i was getting a permission denied error when trying to pull changes.
Question
Is there a way to use 2 deploy key's on the same server?
Environment Details
Site uses Laravel 5.6, Symfony used to run shell script
Git 1.7
Go Daddy web hosting (Basic Linux one)
Notes
Script just runs git pull command
Error given is " Permission denied (publickey) "
SHH is used as a deploy key so only read access, there is one other project also using a deploy key on the same server
Thank you in advance for you help! Any other suggestions are welcome!
Edit #1
Edited post to reflect true problem as it was different to what I though (Feel free to revert if this is bad practice), please see answer below for details and solution
What i though was an issue with authentication what actually an issue with the git service not knowing which ssh key to use as i had multiple on the server.
The solution was to use a config file in the .ssh folder and assign alias to specify which ssh key to use for git operations in separate repositories.
Solution is here: Gist with solution
This gist explains the general idea, it suggests using sub-domains however a comment further down uses alias which seems neater.
I have now resolved the issue and the system is working fine with a read-only, passphrase-less deploy key.
This can be done by customizing the GIT_SSH_COMMAND. As ssh .config only gets the host, you have to create aliases to handle different paths. Alternatively, as the git CLI sends the path of the repo to the GIT_SSH_COMMAND, you can intercept the request in a custom script, added in between git and ssh.
You can create a solution where you extract the path and add in the related identity file, if available on the server.
One approach to do this can be found here.
Usage:
cp deploy_key_file ~/.ssh/git-keys/github-practice
GIT_SSH_COMMAND=custom_keys_git_ssh git clone git#github.com:github/practice.git
I installed Git for Windows in order to clone and pull a project hosted on a remote Linux server.
In my repository (D:/repositories/my-project) I launch the following commands
git clone server#192.168.56.101:/var/www/web/my-project/.git
git pull origin master
So far so good. I pull the project files whenever modifications are applied on the server.
But now I'd like to pull or push from the remote server to my local repository.
I tried many things but I can't figure out how to access the repository located on my local machine.
Things like:
git pull duddy#my-pc:/d/repositories/my-project/.git master
just doesn't work, Git says:
ssh: Could not resolve hostname my-pc: Name or service not known
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Can someone helps me ?
First things first, I would recommend you try simply running git pull.
If this doesn't work, try running git remote -v and check to make sure that the URL for your server is listed as an origin (server#192.168.56.101:/var/www/web/my-project/.git).
Your issue is that you are inputting the URL for your local repository in your attempt to git pull.
I suggest reading the git-pull documentation to learn more about how pull works.
Basically, you need to have some service at your workstation which serves the requests. There are following options (I did not try most of them myself, just making it up from what I know):
use the windows file access. This is the easiest to setup at the windows workstation - just share the repository folder. The Linux side should somehow be able to mount windows shares (like described, for example, here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MountWindowsSharesPermanently). If you manage to mount your \\my-pc\repo to some /mount/my-pc-repo, then you can access it as file:///mount/my-pc-repo.
run git daemon at windows. Set up instructions are available at SO (for example, https://stackoverflow.com/a/2275844/2303202) and it pretty straightforward, but it does not have any authentication and in most cases it is reasonable to use it only for reading, so you will not be able to push to the workstation, only fetch.
set up ssh daemon and access through ssh authentication with read-write access. Git for windows installation contains the needed software (the sshd.exe binary, it is there at least for Git for Windows 2.6.0), probably there is a way to utilize it but I could not find it quickly.
set up HTTP(S) service at your workstation. I don't know if it is possible to do only with Git for Windows (it might be, with some perl module which happen to be included with it), or you should use some other software.
I recently installed OS X Server on a seperate machine and attempting to host some git repos. When I try to create a new project & remote repo with Xcode I get an error -
Could not connect to the remote repository because the server was unreachable.
If I attempt to configure it again after the project has been created I get this error -
Cannot create hosted Git repositories at path because path already exists: /Library/Developer/XcodeServer/HostedRepositories/SampleProject
Looking at the server - I can see the repos were actually created, but for some reason I can't connect/push to them. I have tried this on the machine running the server and another one on the same network with the same results. Is something not configured correctly or any way to get at a more detailed error?
Fixed it by going into the Xcode service repository settings and enabling SSH access.
i'm trying to set up a git server on Windows, but i'm having some issues getting it all to work.
I have locally created a normal repository, and remotely i created a bare repository. On the local repository i added a single text file and committed it, but when I try to push it into the remote repository I always get the following message:
fatal: protocol error: bad line length character: fata
I searched SO and other sources, and most of them suggest it's an issue regarding command echos. I'm using freeSSHd as a SSH solution (remote repository is hosted on a windows server), and I tried to use both the git bash and the windows CMD as a command shell.
I start CMD with /Q to disable echoing and /K to change directory to a directory where repositories are located, so I don't think that would be a problem.
Using the remote desktop, i can clone the repository to a folder next to it, and using the git bash locally i can access the SSH shell and also clone the repository in the same way. But using git clone ssh://<address>:/myRepo.git I always get the above message (The SSH's working folder is the same where the repository is located). Does anyone have any idea what's going on? How can I see what command is triggering the error, and how can I see the full error message?
I also met the same error using freeSSHd as a ssh solution for git server on Windows. I couldn't find a solution for a whole day and gave up. :(
Later I found another powerful ssh server from Bitvise called WinSSHD worked well. It has free version for personal use. I suggest you to switch to it. Though I'd also like to know if there's a fix to the error we both met.
To setup ssh server with WinSSHD is quite simple, and you can add virtual accounts with private/public key access.
The key part is to setup the ssh access for git server. Please follow the steps of the blog here.
It should work well for Windows git client. For Mac, you may meet an error as follows.
grp.sh: No such file or directory
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
To fix it, you need to create the two files gup.sh and grp.sh in your git bin directory (GIT_PATH/bin or GIT_PATH/libexec/git-core configured in system environment variable PATH) in your git server.
The content of gup.sh:
git-upload-pack.exe $*
The content of grp.sh:
git-receive-pack.exe $*
We're using Teamcity 8.0.1 (build 27435). Having this exact same problem. Trying to connect to a bitbucket repo and getting the following exception intermittently:
Failed to collect changes, error: List remote refs failed:
org.eclipse.jgit.errors.TransportException:
https://username#bitbucket.org/myproject/project.git: -1 null
Behind a proxy server and I have added -Dhttps.proxyHost=XXX -Dhttps.proxyPort=1234 to the TEAMCITY_SERVER_OPTS environment variable. That didn't work. There was mention of trying to upgrade to Java7 on another forum but that also didn't help.
Unfortunately, we're not able to use SSH to bitbucket because of the company network rules.
Anyone solved this problem or have suggestions? Thanks for the help!
Im not sure if there a bug in Teamcity/Jgit, but HTTPS for Bitbucket is not working properly. The solution here was to use SSH, but thats not an option for me.
My solution for now is to clone the repo locally (git clone --mirror) and update it periodically in bash (git remote update). Then just point TeamCity to that local .git folder.
