Jdev & Git -- Cannot access remote repository on github.

Stuart FlemingMar 30 2014 — edited Mar 31 2014

I have been working with Git in Jdeveloper 11.1.1.17 for a couple of months, and have even made videos on how to do it:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rt_fy27csM

I haven't used it in about a week, and yesterday, I started trying to push out my local changes to an external repository on github. I it hung.

After several attemps, I tried to clone an existing repository from the remote, and could not get past the login page.  Normally, this has worked fine.

One possible cause is that I did setup OpenDNS on my router, and this may have caused it to limit access. 


On failure of pushing out to the git repository, I tested an existing repository on google-code subversion, and I was able to connect and checkout an application, but when I tried to commit a save to the remote repository, it failed.  However, when I used the google-generated passcode, it did work.

-- I went back to Git and tried the following:

-- I tried the following trouble-shooting (and on failure of each one...)

-- Removed all the OpenDNS restrictions

-- Removed OpenDNS

-- Tried created a new login on github and new repository

-- Tried Jdeveloper from a different computer  (I was under the impression that perhaps there was a hangover from OpenDNS).

-- Did a factory reset of my router

-- Connected directly to the internet bypassing my router

-- Tried to remove the github extension (this ended in failure, and so I....

-- Re-installed Jdevelper

-- I had searched the internet, and did finally see this SQL Developer posting:  https://community.oracle.com/message/11194832#11194832

In it, it says to check the vcs.log which contains:

[20:49:34.754 EDT 30.03.14] https://github.com/stuartsfleming/HelloRules: https://github.com/stuartsfleming/HelloRules/info/refs?service=git-upload-pack not found

Another time I tried it, the log says this (a stackoverflow entry recommended this).

[21:11:52.589 EDT 30.03.14] http://stuartsfleming@github.com/stuartsfleming/tester://stuartsfleming@github.com/stuartsfleming/tester: 301 Moved Permanently  (this was when I removed the  "s" hoping to make it non-ssh).

Found these two issues for the "upload pack not found"

github - git-upload-pack not found - Stack Overflow

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/225291/git-upload-pack-command-not-found-how-to-fix-this-correctly

At this point I think it may have something to do with ssh.  I am going to check that out.  In the meantime, I will post this for the heck of it.

If anyone else has the solution, I would appreciate it.

Thanks,

Stuart
