Repository connection Issue

[Sam]

Hi all,

I have a private repo using gogs and trying to setup a connection from my jenkins project via http but getting the following error:

Failed to connect to repository : Command "git ls-remote -h http://myrepourl.git HEAD" returned status code 128:
stdout: 

stderr: fatal: unable to access 'http://myrepourl.git/': The requested URL returned error: 500

I have added a jenkins user to gogs and tested it.  I can wget the url from the jenkins server ok and also run the git -ls remote repourl HEAD command ok, aswell as clone the repo using git clone on the cli.  I do get prompted for access to the gogs repo when cloning however the username and password i have added to the connection config in the jenkins project works fine.  

There is nothing being outputted to /var/log/jenkins/jenkins.log relating to this so im at a bit of a loss as to how to continue troubleshooting this, I tried using an ssh key but had similar problems, any input would be greatly appreciated.

Many Thanks

Sam

This was caused due to having the incorrect user set in my .ssh/config
