Error trying to view repository: File does not exist

[Célio Cidral]

Hi,

I just installed Gitlist 0.2 in my server and there is this strange error that I cannot figure out how to fix it.  The server is running Ubuntu Server 12.04 and Apache 2 + PHP 5.3.10.  I extracted Gitlist at /var/www/gitlist, copied/modified the config.ini file, etc. The home page renders perfectly, listing all available repositories and with all css styles, etc.  When I click on a repository (i.e. test.git), I get a 404 Not Found.  The Apache's error log shows:

File does not exist: /var/www/gitlist/test.git, referer: https://my_server/gitlist/


I guess the repositories are not supposed to be at /var/www/gitlist, instead they should be found at whatever path is configured in the "repositories" setting, is that correct?  By the way, this is my config.ini file:

[git]
client = '/usr/bin/git' ; Your git executable path
repositories = '/home/git' ; Path to your repositories

; You can hide repositories from GitList, just copy this for each repository you want to hide
; hidden[] = '/var/www/projects/BetaTest'

[app]
baseurl = '/gitlist' ; Base URL of the application

; If you need to specify custom filetypes for certain extensions, do this here
[filetypes]
; extension = type
; dist = xml


Do you guys know what's up?  I tried to look at the source code but I really suck at PHP.

Is mod_rewrite enabled on your Apache?

Yes it is.

May be it's worth mentioning, I installed everything via apt-get.

You're probably using the default virtual host configuration on Apache, then. Please, use your favorite text editor to edit /etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default. Then, inside the <Directory /var/www> section, change the AllowOverride option to All. Restart Apache.

This will allow your Apache setup to read the custom configuration rules stored in .htaccess files inside that directory. Therefore, GitList will be able to configure mod_rewrite and show nice URLs.

I have the same problem. AllowOverride has already changed the option to All. But it can not work properly as well. I was confused that why did gitlist search where gitlist root folder located but repositoies folder I set in gilist/config.ini .
