git clone problem

[peng]

Hello Everyone,

I'm a moose beginner, and embarrassed to bother you about the git clone problems.

After this command prompt in my opensuse, linux:/home/peng/projects # git clone https://github.com/idaholab/moose.git, it shows that :
"
Initialized empty Git repository in /home/peng/projects/moose/.git/
error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing https://github.com/idaholab/moose.git/info/refs
fatal: HTTP request failed
"
What should I do with the git clone to install the moose?
Thank you very much.

Best,
Peng

------------------

make it happen :-)

You seem to be doing the right thing here, I'm not sure why it doesn't work.

Is it a temporary network connectivity issue?  Have you tried it again?

Are you able to fork the repo at github.com?

Thanks for reminding that.
It looks my account is in the member list of the network.
However, when git clone again, the error is still there,

"
"

error: The requested URL returned error: 403 while accessing https://github.com/idaholab/moose.git/info/refs
fatal: HTTP request failed

I'll try it once again later.
Thanks a lot.

Peng,

Are you on a network behind a firewall?  One way to verify that you can connect from the command line is to try other command line utilities like "curl" or "wget".

Hey Peng,

Welcome to the marvellous moose multiverse.  I get similar errors because I am behind some firewall or something.  Instead of https://blah  I use git://blah .  For this to work you first have to set up a github passphrase - search on google and you’ll find a nice page on doing that.  If you have any problems at all please just ask and I can give you more info, but not for a couple of hours since I’m not at work yet (it’s before breakfast time here).

If you're having trouble with firewalls you need to set the https_proxy environment variable.

If you don't want to / don't know how to do that I recommend using SSH with GitHub... it will go through any firewall... https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

Dear all, 

Thank you for all your kind help.

But I still donot get it by clone.

Here is what I've tried and the response.

At last, I'm going to get one copy by download the ZIP file of master version through the webpage. Is it the same, right?

Thank you again for the warm response.

Best,

Peng

​To use git clone over SSH:​

 git clone g...@github.com:idaholab/moose.git

To get GitHub to tell you this information go to a repository on GitHub ( like http://github.com/idaholab/moose ) and on the right side there is a little box with the "clone" URL in it... click "SSH" there and the link will change to show you the SSH URL to use in your clone statement.

Like David mentions the correct URL for MOOSE is: g...@github.com:idaholab/moose.git

You should do: git clone git@github.com:idaholab/moose.git

instead of: ssh git@github.com:idaholab/moose.git

I did not refresh my inbox. David has pointed it out. ;-)

Hello Everyone,

Thanks a lot for all your suggestions.

Finally, I upgraded my opensuse from 11.2 to 13.1 and followed the instructions on the www.mooseframework.org including the MOOSE environment setting.

One more thing, I fixed the error by "zypper install m4" when updating the libmesh. I hope it(installing the m4 package) can be added in the prereqs section. 

Now the test running is working and I'm already engaged in MOOSE.

Great MOOSE.

Thank you all again.

Best,

Peng

I went ahead and added it. The reason for it not being there, is not everyone appears to need it. For example, I did not need it when I first created the OpenSUSE instructions :)

I do not see a problem with having everyone install it, so... its there now.
