Repo Sync Failure

[Debjit]

Hi All,

I am getting this error whenever I have tried repo init -u
git://android.git.kernel.org/platform/manifest.git command. Please
help.

Getting repo ...
from git://android.git.kernel.org/tools/repo.git

Your firewall is blocking port 9418.

Hi Shawn,

I have disabled my firewall completely in my RHEL5 machine for that.
But still I am getting repo sync failure. Also in my Debian lenny
machine, no firewall is installed at all. But I am not able to sync
with the repo. Please suggest a remeady.

Its not your machine's firewall then, its your local network
provider's firewall. Some ISPs may block non-HTTP network connections
in an attempt to stop illegal file sharing from taking up too much
network bandwidth. Unfortunately this also means their customers are
blocked from performing legal file sharing activity, such as
participating in an open source project. Talk to whoever supplies
your Internet connection about why TCP port 9418 is not being allowed.

There isn't much you can do otherwise. Longer term, we will have
better support for obtaining Git repositories over HTTP. The Git
project just started to test a patch series I wrote to enable
efficiently fetching/cloning over HTTP. I'm hopeful the next release
of Git will include this work, but that is unlikely to be released
before the end of 2009.

Hi Shawn,

I have downloaded the source code. Now I am making it by the make
command. But how can i install it or use it in machine? Will android
run as a stand-alone OS? Please suggest how can i run the android OS
after make.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers!!!!

This is outside the scope of this mailing list.

You'll want to run it in the emulator probably, but you should check
out the Android tutorials and android-developers mailing list.
