Description Olivier Thomann

I cannot connect to this web ui http://git.eclipse.org/c/?q=jdt.
Also any git pull fails with this error:
$ git pull
error: Failed connect to git.eclipse.org:80; No error while accessing http://git.eclipse.org/c/jdt/eclipse.jdt.ui.git/info/refs

fatal: HTTP request failed

Not being able to browse the web UI is a blocker for me also.

Although I'm able to pull from the git server, I'm unable to open the web interface in my browser.

Oh, perhaps I should note that I'm pulling from the smart server, not via http.

We had a front line Apache process die in the night.  I've restarted it, and
will dig through the to see if I can work out what happened.

Thanks for the quick response.

You guys really should not be doing git operations (clone, pull) on the web front-end.  It is a dumb front-end and you're only causing yourselves unneeded pain.

Use the clone URLs at the bottom of the page instead.

I don't do any operation directly on the web front end. I use it to make sure that the commits are properly done. Not being able to see what has been committed is an issue when working with git. This web front end is the only I found to do it.
Also I did the pull from the command line. And I cloned from Egit. Now sure there is anything else I can do.

Like Olivier, I do use those URLs but I like viewing individual branches in the web UI. I also use the web UI's commit links in my Bugzilla comments so that others can easily see the diff that I pushed to git.eclipse.org.

In any case, thanks for fixing this. :)

IO may have misunderstood what you guys are doing.  It is possible to clone entire repos from cgit (the dumb web front-end at git.eclipse.org/c/ ) instead of using the http smart server (at git.eclipse.org/gitroot).

If that's not what you're doing, then please ignore my babbling.
