Is the repo on the server side in a good state? I.e., if you do

git status git fsck git show-ref

in the server side repo, is there something strange? Another thing worth trying would be to

git clone --shared --mirror LRSystems LRSystems-new
and check whether pushing to that freshly set-up repo works.
