newbie problem - gitweb and git over http

J. Bakshi· Sep 2, 2010, 05:32 UTC · lore

Hello,

I am a newbie in git technology, please bear with me. I am interested to implement git over http along with  gitweb.

At first I have already created a demo git repository in the server

`````````````` $ cd (project-directory) $ git init $ (add some files) $ git add . $ git commit -m 'Initial commit' ````````````````

Then I have set gitweb in apache

```````````````
 Alias /gitweb  /var/gitdir/
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^gitweb$ gitweb/ [R]
SetEnv GITWEB_CONFIG /etc/gitweb.conf

<Directory "/var/gitdir/"> AllowOverride AuthConfig Options +ExecCGI +Indexes Order allow,deny Allow from all DirectoryIndex gitweb.cgi SetEnv GITWEB_CONFIG "/etc/gitweb.conf" AddHandler cgi-script .cgi </Directory> ``````````````````````````

After restating apache I can see gitweb at http://192.168.1.1/gitweb ; but clicking on the demo project, which I have created;  just gives an error as

`````````````` The requested URL /index.php was not found on this server ```````````````````

webdav is already running in this server for some other project. I have setup webdav for git like

````````` <IfModule mod_dav_svn.c> <Location /myproject.git> Dav on AuthType Basic AuthName "My repo with git" AuthUserFile /home/svn/PASSWORD <Limitexcept GET HEAD PROPFIND OPTIONS REPORT> Require valid-user </Limitexcept> </Location> </IfModule> ```````````````

Now testing with cadaver

````````````````` cadaver https://192.168.1.1/gitweb/test.git

Authentication required for Write access requires a password on server `192.168.1.1':
Username: svnadmin
Password:
Could not open collection:
404 Not Found

``````````````````````

I think for both the cases there are some configuration problem which can't find the correct location/path. Could anyone kindly enlighten me, actually where the problem is ?

Thanks for your time

gitweb related issue is solved. At /etc/gitweb.conf the following was creating the problem

``````````````````` $feature{'pathinfo'}{'default'} = [1]; ```````````````

commenting it has solved the gitweb issue.   But no success with webda  :-(
