Perforce Scripted Installer - installation

I was trying to create a scripted installer for P4V.
The port settings, user setting and the workspace name are set as specified in the config file.
But when I open perforce the connection dialog box throws an error "client 'manojpc' unknown".
The following was my configuration file:
set P4PORT=server:2345
set INSTMODE=NoPrompt
set INSTTYPE=ClientOnly
set P4ROOT=$(SystemDrive)\My Depot
set CLNTEXES=$(SystemDrive)\Perforce
set P4USER=username
set p4CLIENT=$(HOSTNAME)
If I specify an already existing workspace, perforce won't allow me to use it in a PC other than the one from which it was created.
So how do I make this work?
Please let me also know if the above settings will set the "C:\My Depot" as the workspace dir.

In your Workspace settings, make the Host: field blank. This will allow you to use the same workspace from any computer.

Do you possibly need to use the p4 client command to set up a workspace before-hand?

How can I change the default output folder path of the GO file?

Because I had installed the Avira in my computer, once I run my go file in GoLand, Avira will prompt me a security alert that "BLOCK HEUR/APC(could) ........."
Meanwhile, GoLand also shows that
Error running 'go build test.go': Cannot run program "C:\Users\Simon\AppData\Local\Temp___2go_build_test_go.exe" (in directory "E:\Application software\GO\awesomeProject"): CreateProcess error=5, ACCESS DENIED.
I want to know how can I change the default output path (i.e., build -o "path") to another path; after all, I don't want to close the realtime protection of Avira in each time, and ā€˜Cā€™ disk is also a sensitive area. Should I configure the settings of the GO source or just change some settings in GoLand? B.T.W, unless necessary, I don't want to change the settings of Avira :)
Thanks in advance, I am a beginner of Go language.
You can edit the run configuration via Run | Edit Configurations... and set the Output directory to whatever location you'd like to, see the screenshot below.
If you wish to set this for all new run configurations of the project, then go to Run | Edit Configurations... | Templates | Go Build and then configure the Output directory setting there. All new Go Build configurations will then use that setting.

openssh windows bad owner or permissions

I've installed openssh for windows and when I run ssh localhost I get
Bad owner or permissions on C:\Users\gary/.ssh/config
I've looked at these 2 questions https://superuser.com/questions/348694/bad-owner-or-permissions-error-using-cygwins-ssh-exe and https://serverfault.com/questions/253313/ssh-returns-bad-owner-or-permissions-on-ssh-config but none of the answers work for me. sshd is running as a service as the Local System user. I've run chmod 0600 C:\Users\gary\.ssh\config and chown gary C:\Users\gary\.ssh\config. I've also cleared the ACL by running setfacl -b C:\Users\gary\.ssh\config and then chmod 0600 C:\Users\gary\.ssh\config again. I've also tried changing the owner to SYSTEM and got the same error.
I'm not sure what else to do, is there anything wrong with my setup? I also have git installed which installed mingw, I deleted ssh and sshd from my git installation so they wouldn't be on my path.
Other commands I've run are
icacls "C:\Users\gary\.ssh\config" /setowner gary
chown -R gary:1049089 C:\Users\gary\.ssh
ls -la C:\Users\gary\.ssh\config shows
-rw-r--r-- 1 gary 1049089 229 Jan 3 14:43 'C:\Users\gary.ssh\config'
it keeps showing this even after changing the owner to SYSTEM, but in the file properties in file explorer it shows SYSTEM as the owner
This started popping up immediately after I created another user with Administrator privileges, and that account began inheriting access to my .ssh folder.
You do not need to change your permissions whatsoever.
Just go to .ssh, right-click Properties, Security Tab, Advanced. DISABLE INHERITANCE, then click on the Administrator user (the one that is not you) and Remove them. Apply. Done.
Use ssh client from Git instead of Windows inbuilt SSH client. E.g. set VS Code to use C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\ssh.exe instead of C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH\ssh.exe.
Steps:
In VS Code navigated to [File] -> [Preferences] -> [Settings] -> Search remote.ssh.path
Input C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\ssh.exe
Alternatively:
Update PATH environment variable to point to Git bin before Windows System32.
Type "env" in Start bar to edit System (or account) environment variables.
Select Path and hit edit.
Add C:\Program Files\Git\usr\bin\ssh.exe to the list and move it to the top of the list.
Just got same issue after re-install windows. And easily fixed just by changing the file permissions to
SYSTEM & Administrators - Full Control
[your username] - Modify & as Owner
Note:
I'm still using Windows 10 built-in SSH client C:\Windows\System32\OpenSSH\ssh.exe & not using cygwin at all
For those still struggling with this, check this out: https://github.com/PowerShell/openssh-portable/pull/418. This was the case for me. It turns out that your computer should be named differently from your username... šŸ¤·ā€ā™‚ļø It will probably be fixed soon in future updates, because fix got into commit.
So again: if your computer name is the same as your username and you still haven't fixed this issue with permissions dialog, then probably renaming your computer could help.
Instead of using the properties box, you can use the one liner:
icacls .ssh /grant:r <yourUserName>:f /inheritance:r
/grant:r username:f -> grant and overwrite permissions, giving full permissions to username
/inheritance:r -> remove inherited permissions
Keep known_hosts writable with
icacls .ssh/known_hosts /grant:rw <username>:f /inheritance:r
I'm not sure what version of Windows you're running, but since this is recent I'd guess Windows 10. I recently found out that an OpenSSH client is installed by default as of the April 2018 update. I then found I had two instances of OpenSSH: the one I installed myself and the one Windows gave me. Uninstalling the one I had installed caused the error message you describe.
The solution that worked for me was to remove the user-installed OpenSSH as well as the C:\Users\username\.ssh folder, and let Windows 10 OpenSSH create the folder when you run the command the next time. I didn't have any configuration I was worried about losing, but if you do I'd suggest copying and pasting the contents of the files somewhere and recovering them afterwards.
Hope this helps!
Having the exact same issue today, this is how I solved it:
Go to C:\Users\username.ssh
Right-click the config file
Properties -> Security -> Advanced -> Disable Inheritance -> Disable
inheritance -> Remove all inherited permissions from this object ->
Apply -> Yes -> Ok -> Ok
Use FixUserFilePermissions.ps1 to fix permissions of client side files - keys and config files of current user.
git clone git#github.com:PowerShell/openssh-portable.git
cd openssh-portable/contrib/win32/openssh
.\FixUserFilePermissions.ps1 -Confirm:$false
On windows server this is due to permission problem. Need to remove access to other users for the following folders
.ssh - folder
Right click on this folder -> Select "Give access to" - > Click on "Remove Access"
Right click on this folder -> Select "properties" - > "Securities" - > Click on "Edit Permissions" - Remove other users except the ID you are logged in.
Repeat the same process for the folder under which you have .pem file. (Note: Keep .pem file in a separate folder)
For anyone, who still has troubles after applying the owner + modify (plus full control for admins): it did not work for me. Then I saw a solution to remove all other users (incl all admins), which did not help either.
This worked for me:
leave System and Administrators in place, with full control, as suggested above
leave the user itself in place, as owner, with modify, as suggested above
however, remove any other user or group. You probably need to go to advanced first, to disable inheritance of rights
after I removed an administrative user who was added by Windows after entering my folder (by passing through the UAC box), it worked for me again.
Hope this helps for anyone who encounters this specific issue :-)
If User is in Administrative group just keep configuration in
c:\programdata\ssh\ssh_config instead %USERPROFILE%.ssh\config, will work
after disabling inheritance, make sure you add your current user, else u cannot edit the file
For me it was fixed by running chmod 0644 config under ~/.ssh/. Earlier it was set to 755 which was causing "Bad owner or permissions on /home/home/.ssh/config"
I tried all the solutions above, and sadly still can't fix this issue. I'm pretty sure the permission of my ssh config is correct, this has been verified by the Explore GUI and the Get-Acl commands.
Then I finally find a way to solve it:
delete the entire .ssh folder and then open powershell and type ssh localhost. It will create a new .ssh folder for you, then you can apply the above permission tweaks(for me I only did one thing: disable inheritance).
So if other solutions doesn't work for you, maybe you can try this. Hope it's helpful.
PS: don't forget to backup your old .ssh folder before deleting it.
I was having this problem, and no amount of changing permissions or disabling inheritance on the config file would fix it. It turned out that it did not like my computer name and user name being the same, so I re-named my computer, allowed open ssh to re-create the config file, and the permissions are now correct. That was probably a bad idea to begin with, tbh.
I deleted C:\Users\user/.ssh/config and reran my stuff, then it worked.
However, if you have something valuable there, make a backup first, just in case!
After a domain change over, I started having this same problem. Went through all of the suggestions listed and nothing worked, including both chmod and chown solutions.
I ended up fixing the problem by copying the folder, pasting it, deleting the original, and then renaming it back to .ssh.
The problem seems from the files are owned/has-permission for more than one user.
1- Go to your ./ssh folder and for both config & id_rsa files. From the properties -> Security -> Advanced:
2- Make sure that the user that you are logged in with IS the only user there.
No group change or whatever,the first answer is right.Change to git ssh.exe
How?
uninstall win10's openssh in Settings
add path of git's ssh.exe to your Path
For me it was fixed by running chmod 0644 config under ~/.ssh/ when running WSL.
Rename the config file to something like config2
Open this file with notepad
Save As config (original name)
This worked for me.
I guess it was caused by the wrong path expression.
Bad owner or permissions on C:\Users\gary/.ssh/config
The /.ssh should be \.ssh. So I try to use git bash (the terminal tool when install git in Windows system) to run ssh command. It really works. But I don't really know if it is caused by the reason I guessed.
Hi guys after a troubleshoot for a day I found that this "m.. f.." config file should not stand in the .ssh/ path.
For VSCODE just set the config in 'C:\ProgrmaData\ssh\ssh_config' path as proposed in the second choice of the palette command, and forget .shh path for this configuration.
That worked fine for me.
Nota: there was also a known_host file also created here with strange VM names inside, I deleted also this file. and that helps
For me, re-editing the permission settings in Windows is too complicated. Regenerating another configuration in vscode does not work either.
I set a custom config file path to solve this problem.
["Remote SSH: Config file"]
The absolute file path to a custom SSH config file.
note: search this option by #ext:ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh,ms-vscode-remote.remote-ssh-edit config file
This is because the config file cannot be accessed normally. We can create a new config file (this file needs to be accessible normally), such as D:/.ssh/config, and then specify the configuration file through the -F option: ssh -F D:/.ssh/config username#ip_address -p port
Delete the .config file, it has worked for me

Why do I not have a .hgrc file?

I'm trying to insert the mercurial_keyring file with my username and password in the .hgrc file but it doesn't exist in my user directory on windows. I have tortoise hg installed and even checked if it was installed properly on the command prompt yet I still don't have the .hgrc folder.
Can anyone tell me what might be the reason to it?
Thanks
Because it's %USERPROFILE%\mercurial.ini
Mercurial reads configuration data from several files, if they exist.
These files do not exist by default and you will have to create the
appropriate configuration files yourself:
Local configuration is put into the per-repository /.hg/hgrc
file.
Global configuration like the username setting is typically put into:
%USERPROFILE%\mercurial.ini (on Windows)
The .hgrc files are not created automatically when you install Mercurial or TortoiseHg.
You will need to manually create it at the location you need whether that is within the repository's .hg folder or your own C:\Users\username\ folder.
You will probably need to use the command line to create the file as it's not usually possible to create filenames that start with . in Windows Explorer.

Using and running Tortoise svnsync in Windows via command line

I have a local repository and I have just signed up to unfuddle and want to sync my local repository to the new one I have created on there.
I was told to run the following command:
svnsync init --username USERNAME http://username.unfuddle.com/svn/username-rep http://SOURCE_REPO_URL
Firstly, I assume I can remove the username stuff if the source repository doesn't require authentication?
Secondly, when I run that command my system doesn't recognize it. I assumed svnsync needed to be added somewhere in Windows so that it could be run via it's name only (think the correct term is an environment variable)?, but not only do I not know how to do that I don't know what program to add...... I cannot find any svnsync.exe or anything locate din my TortoiseSVN folder.
What do I need to do here?
When you install TortoiseSVN you are given the option to install the Subversion binaries as well:
Once you do that, you will see svnsync.exe in the installation folder:
As long as you have C:\Program Files\TortoiseSVN\bin in your PATH variable, you will be able to call svnsync.exe from the command-line:
(You can view your PATH variable thus (on Windows 7): Start -> right-click Computer -> Properties -> Advanced system settings -> Environment variables.... DO NOT overwrite whatever is there - simply append the path to TortoiseSVN if it isn't already there. More info here.)
Hope this helps.

How to connect to source control server using TF command line utility

I'm trying to run a commands using Tf Command-Line Utility I'm getting errors when trying to connect to TFS server. I'm not sure what tf tool is expecting as far as parameters.
It tells me to connect to workspaces by running tf /collection:TeamProjectCollectionUrl'
To get the TeamProjectCollectionUrl I went into Visual Studio Team Explorer, looked at properties of a project and copied URL property. The url starts with vstfs://
You want to use the standard HTTP or HTTPS URL to specify your project collection. (This is the same URL that's shown in the connection dialog in Visual Studio.) For example:
http://tfs.contoso.com:8080/tfs/DefaultCollection
TFS installs on port 8080 by default, and (beginning in TFS 2010), the name of your project collection is the suffix.
Alternately, you shouldn't need to specify the project collection - if you run the tf resolve command from one of your working folders, it will determine the server information automatically. That is, if you have the workspace mapping:
$/Project/Source -> C:\Work\Source
If your current working directory is C:\Work\Source and run the tf command line client, it should locate your TFS workspace automatically.
1- Add "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\Common7\IDE" path into Environment variable path.
2 - Create a batch file (simply copy and modify the below commands and save into file with ext .bat)
CLS
tf get $/Project/Source /recursive /force
Pause
exit
3- Copy .bat file and place into your local Mapped folder and run.
