Stuck at downloading Android Source

[Novay Mawbowo]

Hello, i'm just met this things just now:

Fetching projects:  95% (210/221)  Fetching project platform/system/core

Fetching project platform/system/extras

Fetching project platform/system/media

Fetching projects:  96% (213/221)  Fetching project platform/system/netd

Fetching project platform/system/vold

Fetching projects:  99% (219/221)  

Anyone know? Thanks before. :)

I am also stuck with the downloading AOSP source code related to Kitkat 4.4.2

Further debugging points me to the below issues, and thus sync doesn't complete. This is a fresh sync that I am doing now.

$ repo sync device/asus/deb

Fetching project device/asus/deb

Fetching projects: 100% (1/1), done.  

error: manifest required for this command -- please run init

But cloning with below command works. 

$ git clone https://android.googlesource.com/device/asus/deb

I am also stuck at 99 %. Any help in this regard would be wonderful. 

I couldn't find much help related to the error "error: manifest required for this command -- please run init".

Thank you.

Try executing these commands in the current session and repo sync again.

$ sudo sysctl -w net.ipv4.tcp_window_scaling=0

$ repo sync -j1

Thank you for the help.

The issue hasn't got fixed.

Source$ repo sync  -j1

Syncing work tree:   3% (13/407)  error: manifest required for this command -- please run init

I even tried the -f option, without any help.

Am I doing something wrong ?

[Zhao Wei Liew]

Seems like you didnt manage to get the manifest file during repo init. Make sure that you have the manifest.xml in .repo folder.

[Jayesh Jayan]

Thank you, Zhao.

There is manifest file in the .repo folder

$ ls -l .repo/manifest.xml 

lrwxrwxrwx 1 jayesh jayesh 21 Dec 19 16:59 .repo/manifest.xml -> manifests/default.xml

I have initiated repo using the command as below

$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.4.2_r1

I had actually downloaded the entire repo using the init command

$ repo init -u https://android.googlesource.com/platform/manifest -b android-4.4_r1

After which, I happen to unfortunately delete the .repo folder. Thus wasting the already downloaded 19 GB. 

Currently, everything seems to be downloaded and in .repo folder. But, 

$ repo sync -j1

doesn't complete.

Thank you for any guidance.

This error message is rather misleading. It actually indicates that
Repo can't open the HEAD file of the git. I'd run repo under strace
(i.e. 'strace -f repo sync device/asus/deb') to see exactly what's
going on. Alternatively, change

except IOError:
raise NoManifestException(path)

in .repo/repo/project.py to

except IOError as e:
raise Exception(e)

to bypass Repo's translation of the actual error.

Thank you, Magnus.

By modifying the code as recommended, I got the error as

Exception: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: u'/home/jayesh/Android-Workspace/Source/device/asus/deb/.git/HEAD'

And on checking, that is the issue.

$ ls -l /home/jayesh/Android-Workspace/Source/device/asus/deb/.git/HEAD

ls: cannot access /home/jayesh/Android-Workspace/Source/device/asus/deb/.git/HEAD: No such file or directory

I am not sure if this is the correct way, but the issue was fixed with the below commands from the source directory where repo was initiated.

$ rm -rf device/asus/deb/ .repo/projects/device/asus/deb.git/

$ repo sync device/asus/deb

$ repo sync

Thank you once again, Magnus and Zhao.
