Git Push Error - gandalf not found about gandalf

[fsouza]

Hi @aaronfranco, how did you install Gandalf? Can you share your Gandalf configuration file? It's probably at /etc/gandalf.conf.

[aaronfranco]

Hi @fsouza, thanks for the speedy reply! I installed with aptitude

sudo apt-get install gandalf-server

Here is my config:

bin-path: /usr/local/bin/gandalf
database:
  url: 127.0.0.1:27017
  name: gandalf
git:
  bare:
    location: /var/lib/gandalf/repositories
    template: /home/git/bare-template
host: localhost
bind: "0.0.0.0:8000"
uid: git
api:
  request:
    maxMemory: 2097152
repository:
  tempDir: /tmp

@aaronfranco the first line should be /usr/bin/gandalf-ssh instead. You need to remove the old key, change the file, restart the gandalf-server and then add the key back again.

Alternatively, you can just change the file /etc/gandalf.conf, restart gandalf-server and manually edit the file /home/git/.ssh/authorized_keys, replacing "/usr/local/bin/gandalf" with "/usr/bin/gandalf-ssh".

Do I remove the old key with tsuru key-remove?
You mention I need to "change the file," which file is that?

[fsouza]

@aaronfranco I'm sorry, I've just edited my comment. The file is /etc/gandalf.conf.

Yes, the command to remove the key is tsuru key-remove.

[aaronfranco]

@fsouza thanks! that fixed it.

[fsouza]

@aaronfranco thank you! Do you think there's something we can improve in our documentation to avoid this kind of confusion in the future?

[aaronfranco]

@fsouza Yes. The sample gandalf config file caused the problem for me. I think updating it with the right bin-path should help 👍

That file is used on this page of your documentation. Now that I look at it, I also had to change the git template paths.

[fsouza]

@aaronfranco Thank you! I've updated the configuration file and the documentation page, is it fine to close this issue?

[aaronfranco]

@fsouza I think the file needs one more change...

...
git:
  bare:
    location: /var/lib/gandalf/repositories
...

Currently, the git:bare:location is set to /tmp/repositories. I'm not sure that makes a differnce, but I had to change mine to the above.

[fsouza]

Sure, thanks!
