Gitolite server-side setup for both http and ssh

Question

I am trying to set-up a git server using gitolite. So far, I have the server working with the ssh and I am not trying to add http support on top of it (final goal is to use LDAP for authentication)

I've followed http://sitaramc.github.com/gitolite/ssh-and-http.html how-to document.

I thought I had it all set-up so I tried:

git clone http://myServer/testing

and the result is:

Cloning into 'testing'... fatal: http://myServer/testing/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?

I've tried running git update-server-info from the actual server testing repository, and still the same result.

There is git-daemon-export-ok on the testing.git repository.

Could someone please help me solve this issue? I am not sure where I should begin..

Additional Information:
I am using Arch Linux (server side)

output from sudo suexec -V:

-D AP_DOC_ROOT="/srv/http"
-D AP_GID_MIN=99
-D AP_HTTPD_USER="http"
-D AP_LOG_EXEC="/var/log/httpd/suexec.log"
-D AP_SAFE_PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"
-D AP_UID_MIN=99
-D AP_USERDIR_SUFFIX="public_html"

below is my VirtualHost section in my /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

in the below section, servername is what I get from hostname command

<VirtualHost *:80>  
    ServerName        servername  
    ServerAlias       servername
    ServerAdmin       [e-mail]

        Order         allow,deny  
        Allow         from all  
    </Directory>  

    SuexecUserGroup git git

Answer 1

Your config defines an alias /git/ which will call your gitolite wrapper.
That means it will call it only for addresses like yourServer/git/...

You should at least try your clone with:

git clone http://myServer/git/testing

As the OP hoistyler references in this answer, the only remaining issue was an authentication one based on a file-based login.

Answer 2

Thanks to VonC's guidance I've now solved the problem.

I've tried git clone http://myServer/git/testing and it gave me

Cloning into 'testing'...
Username for 'http://myServer': git
Password for 'http://git@myServer': 
fatal: Authentication failed

I looked into the logs, and figured out that my git.passwd file was somehow in the wrong format (I forgot how I created that file last time..)

I basically had to create my git.passwd file again:

htpasswd -c git.passwd git

Now it works! Thanks again VonC
