Can't clone MobileVLC.git - Server issue?

Postby Dionysiac » 27 Nov 2010 11:23

Hi,

Apologies if this is not the right place to report/ask this.

I am trying to clone the MobileVLC.git repo from git.videolan.org and am getting the following errors:

git clone git://git.videolan.org/MobileVLC.git
Cloning into MobileVLC...
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

git clone http://git.videolan.org/git/MobileVLC.git
Cloning into MobileVLC...
fatal: http://git.videolan.org/git/MobileVLC.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?

So, can someone with the requisite permissions run the update-server-info script please? (assuming that is the obvious fix).

Rick

Because, once again, you don't clone git:// but http://

git clone git://git.videolan.org/git/MobileVLC.git

Is there any issue with the server at this moment?

Code: Select all

git clone git://git.videolan.org/git/MobileVLC.git
or

Code: Select all

git clone git://git.videolan.org/MobileVLC.git
I get the same message:

Code: Select all

Cloning into MobileVLC... fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly

But now I get an Operation timed out

/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/ranlib: file: /Users/petitar/Documents/MobileVLC/ImportedSources/vlc/contrib-ios-i686-apple-darwin10/lib/libfaad.a(ssr_ipqf.o) has no symbols svn: Can't connect to host 'svn.ffmpeg.org': Operation timed out make[1]: *** [ffmpeg/.svn-25711] Error 1 make: *** [using-src] Error 2
Any idea?
Thanks

and when trying to connect to http://svn.ffmpeg.org/, I get this:

Code: Select all

Index of / Name Last Modified Size Type Parent Directory/ - Directory robots.txt 2009-Oct-15 11:08:53 0.1K text/plain lighttpd/1.4.19
So it seems the site is not down

If trying again hasn't helped by now, this looks like a case for some network troubleshooting. If you have a firewall, check that it allows outgoing connections to destination port 3690. This is the port used by the Subversion server.

To check whether you can connect to svn.ffmpeg.org on that port, you can use telnet:

Code: Select all

telnet svn.ffmpeg.org 3690
If the system replies with something like

Code: Select all

Trying 213.144.138.186... Connected to svn.ffmpeg.org. Escape character is '^]'.
...as it just did for me, then the connection works. (Exit telnet by pressing Ctrl+C.)

I too cannot clone MobileVLC. I have tried:

Code: Select all

git://git.videolan.org/MobileVLC.git git://git.videolan.org/git/MobileVLC.git http://git.videolan.org/MobileVLC.git http://git.videolan.org/git/MobileVLC.git
The git protocol ones gave me the 'remote hung up unexpectedly' error, while the http ones gave me:
"fatal: http://git.videolan.org/git/MobileVLC.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?"

I can confirm the same issue:

Code: Select all

Ghostwalker:third-party ajmas$ git clone git://git.videolan.org/git/MobileVLC.git Cloning into MobileVLC... fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Providing logs, messages, configuration info (VLC, OS, Hardware) and a clear explanation of the issue always helps the problem solvers help you, even if they don't end up solving the issue. Just think what you would need if you were solving someone else's problem. Additional: Always looking for eager and capable MacOS X developers to join the VLC team - for more information see here.
