Hudson git clone error

问题:

I have created free-style software project in Hudson.

I want to clone a public Git repository: git://github.com/bret/watir.git

Build fails with error message:

Started by user anonymous Checkout:workspace / C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\.hudson\jobs\watir\workspace - hudson.remoting.LocalChannel@1a1f370 Last Build : #4 Checkout:workspace / C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\.hudson\jobs\watir\workspace - hudson.remoting.LocalChannel@1a1f370 Cloning the remote Git repository Cloning repository origin $ git clone -o origin git://github.com/bret/watir.git "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\.hudson\jobs\watir\workspace" Trying next repository ERROR: Could not clone from a repository FATAL: Could not clone hudson.plugins.git.GitException: Could not clone     at hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM$2.invoke(GitSCM.java:400)     at hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM$2.invoke(GitSCM.java:358)     at hudson.FilePath.act(FilePath.java:676)     at hudson.FilePath.act(FilePath.java:660)     at hudson.plugins.git.GitSCM.checkout(GitSCM.java:358)     at hudson.model.AbstractProject.checkout(AbstractProject.java:833)     at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractRunner.checkout(AbstractBuild.java:314)     at hudson.model.AbstractBuild$AbstractRunner.run(AbstractBuild.java:266)     at hudson.model.Run.run(Run.java:948)     at hudson.model.Build.run(Build.java:112)     at hudson.model.ResourceController.execute(ResourceController.java:93)     at hudson.model.Executor.run(Executor.java:118) 

I do not think the problem is in folder permissions because I have another Hudson job (with SVN repository) that works just fine.

I have tried to clone the repository to .hudson\jobs\watir\workspace from command line, and it works fine:

C:\>git clone -o origin git://github.com/bret/watir.git "C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\.hudson\jobs\watir\workspace" Initialized empty Git repository in C:/Documents and Settings/Administrator/.hudson/jobs/watir/workspace/.git/ remote: Counting objects: 15203, done. essing objects: 100% (5307/5307), done. remote: Total 15203 (delta 10052), reused 14532 (delta 9565) Receiving objects: 100% (15203/15203), 7.88 MiB | 144 KiB/s, done. Resolving deltas: 100% (10052/10052), done. 

As far as I can tell, Hudson used either the same Git executable or the same version of it, as command line does.

Command line:

C:\>git version git version 1.6.3.2.1299.gee46c 

Hudson:

Started by user anonymous [workspace] $ cmd /c call C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\hudson9062544454093366628.bat  C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\.hudson\jobs\watir\workspace>git version git version 1.6.3.2.1299.gee46c Finished: SUCCESS 

Searching the web I have found only one page related to my error message (hudson git plugin remote windows slave clone), and it says that the problem is Git not being in path. But in that case, git version would not run from Hudson, right?

Environment:

• Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2, Standard Edition, Service Pack 2
• java 1.6.0_14
• Hudson 1.316
• Hudson GIT plugin 0.7.3
• git 1.6.3.2.1299.gee46c

回答1:

Looks like hudson git plugin remote windows slave clone post was right. When I go to Manage Hudson > Configure System, in Git > Git executable section, there is error There's no such executable git in PATH. (If takes a few seconds for Hudson to display the error after the page is displayed.) Adding C:\Program Files\Git\bin to path and restarting Hudson solved the problem.

回答2:

It's worth noting that if the cloning process itself has an issue you will also see this problem. I have had issues with one of my boxes failing 4 out of 5 times on the initial clone of a large repository, and hudson kept throwing this error. A good way to verify this is the problem, and it's not Hudson being unable to find the git executable, is to clone the repository into the Hudson workspace manually, and then run a Hudson build: if Hudson is configured properly the build will succeed and report that there are no changes.

回答3:

I needed to try with the ssh git@github.company.co.uk:organisation/repo.git url instead the https https://github.company.co.uk/organisation/repo.git

回答4:

Git plugin 0.7.3 have some issues when used with windows absolute paths.

Try using relative paths instead.
