error while uploading

[DonDavici]

Hi

i was searching for a long time for script as yours. Thank you very much for your efforts on this.

unfortnuately it does not work for me.

i get always the following error:

{"message":"Not Found"}GitHub doesn't want us to upload the file.

message not found comes from "print res.body one line before the error message itself in your script.

any ideas on this?

thx in advance

Try to capture the actual response code from github. It's not returning a 2xx response, it would be much useful to know what the code actually is.

[DonDavici]

any idea how to find out :-)

i am not familiar with ruby.

Just before this line:

die("GitHub doesn't want us to upload the file.") unless res.class == Net::HTTPCreated

add:

puts res.inspect
puts res.body.inspect

[DonDavici]

this is the output

Net::HTTPNotFound 404 Not Found readbody=true
"{"message":"Not Found"}"
GitHub doesn't want us to upload the file.

What is the output from this command?

git config --get remote.origin.url

https://github.com/DonDavici/DreamPlex.git

I just pushed a change (f8cf726), does it work now?

[DonDavici]

sorry. still the same problem :-(

[wereHamster]

Did you supply a valid token to the script? (see the readme)

[DonDavici]

sure. i tried also manually within the script. the token is available.

More debugging. In the get_http_request function (line 38+) add:

puts uri.inspect
puts req.inspect

[DonDavici]

you mean puts request.inspect ... right?

this ist the output:

URI::HTTPS:0x8fa8c34 URL:https://api.github.com/repos/DonDavici/DreamPlex/downloads>
Net::HTTP::Post POST>
Net::HTTPNotFound 404 Not Found readbody=true>
"{"message":"Not Found"}"
GitHub doesn't want us to upload the file.

[wereHamster]

Yes. Add also this:

puts params.inspect

[DonDavici]

URI::HTTPS:0x8a17f54 URL:https://api.github.com/repos/DonDavici/DreamPlex/downloads>
Net::HTTP::Post POST>
"{"name":"DP_MainMenu.py","size":"34713","description":"","content_type":"text/x-python"}"
Net::HTTPNotFound 404 Not Found readbody=true>
"{"message":"Not Found"}"
GitHub doesn't want us to upload the file.

If using OAuth, you'll need a token with 'public_repo' scope for a user with push access to the repo in order to create a download via the API.

@pengwynn

thank you very much. that solved the problem for me. :-)

[wereHamster]

I've added a note to the readme which scopes the OAuth token must include.
