"Fetch changesets automatically" initially displays 404 at project/ID/repository

[dergachev]

Here's a minor bug:

• add a new repo (important: not in DB, not fetched) to a project, eg git@github.com:dergachev/screengif.git
• visit its entry in the Repository tab for the project: http://docker2:4000/projects/sitediff/repository/screengif
• observe initially you see 404: The entry or revision was not found in the repository.
• On refresh of the same page, observe the repo is parsed properly.

To reproduce this bug with an existing repo:

• remove its record from Redmine DB
• remove its clone from the filesystem: rm -Rf plugins/redmine_git_remote/repos/github.com/dergachev/screengif/
• follow steps above

When I refresh the page the repository is still not found.
In the filesystem however the repository is fetched correctly.

[dergachev]

Note that this issue has an easy workaround: just visit the repo page twice. For me the second request has no 404.

[spydmobile]

Sorry, visiting the repo page multiple times does not clear this error for me either. :(

[dergachev]

OK that's interesting. A possible explanation for this is that you have "Fetch commits automatically" setting disabled, is that correct? I was under the impression it's enabled by default, but I could be wrong. You can verify at http://REDMINE_ROOT_URL/settings?tab=repositories

If that's the case, this bug shouldn't apply to you, since you will only fetch changesets on cron, when your cron job runs something like the following:

cd /home/redmine/redmine && ./script/rails runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production

Is that correct? Or is there another error at play?

[spydmobile]

Its disabled, but I think its a cron issue, becuase I dont in fact have a
cron job for all repos.

I have been doing it this way (Presumably part of the problem)
http://www.redmine.org/projects/redmine/wiki/HowTo_keep_in_sync_your_git_repository_for_redmine

Also I have been using hooks from bitbucket, back to the bitbucket module
too, which is better with the Fetch Commits disabled

However, I have added the cron you have suggested and will see how it pans
out.

Thanks to @vasi for helping me debug this ALL DAY LONG.

[dergachev]

@spydmobile cool in that case, it's not related to #6 so we should take the conversation back to #1

[spydmobile]

@dergachev ok, got it ;-)

[Silthus]

For me the error still occurs for every repository I add.
I pulled the latest version of the plugin, but when I add a new repository and try to browse it a 404 will be displayed. The 404 stays when I refresh the page.
In the filesystem the repositories are fetched correctly. I also already tried using a completly new repository that never existed before. Did not work either.

@Silthus
Can you confirm that your Redmine setting "Fetch commits automatically" is on or off?
If it's off, you need to setup the cron job as per README, or for interactive debugging run the following:

./script/rails runner "Repository.fetch_changesets" -e production

Also to help me debug, please check if there are fetched commits in your repos as follows:

# fix these for your scenario
REDMINE_PATH=/home/redmine/redmine
REPO_PATH=$REDMINE_PATH/plugins/redmine_git_remote/repos/github.com/dergachev/sitediff

cd $REPO_PATH
git log

Do you see all the commits expected? If not, that means the plugin just initialized the folder, but never ran git fetch.

Also is this a private or public repo? Have you looked in the redmine logs for clues?

[Silthus]

Fetch commits automatically is on.

When I run "git log" in the cloned repository I get the following error: fatal: bad default revision 'HEAD'

Also in the production log there are not direct errors except the successful 404:
