HANA Express - Web IDE - Git clone error - cannot open git-upload-pack

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm following OpenSAP development course manual for HANA 2.0 and folloow the exercises.

When in Web IDE, I go to File > Git > Clone repository and input the url of the template files for the course, which is: https://github.com/SAP/com.sap.openSAP.hana5.example

After clicking Ok, I'm getting an error:

Clone request failed

https://github.com/SAP/com.sap.openSAP.hana5.example: cannot open git-upload-pack

Can anyone direct me towards a correct solution? The course itself is already over, so I can't ask there. Thomas Jung (one of the teachers) mentions that I can just import it as a .zip file from Github, but I want to have a fully working connection to repository.
Thanks

I'm running into this same problem of "cannot open git-upload-pack". I feel my setup is very vanilla for Web IDE where I attempted this both from a trial version and from a full SAP Cloud account I am getting this error to connect to the SAP corporate GitHub. If there are certificate installs needed, can someone provide a reference for this? My web searches haven't been successful.

Thanks,

I'm having the same problem. Just started using HANA Express and going through the course. Is there a solution out there?

Hi colleagues,

To fix the issue you need to generate and save locally a token in Git settings for your user: https://github.wdf.sap.corp/settings/tokens

After that in WebIDE you need to choose Use Token Authentication option and paste the token. Please be advised, you will not be able to see the token in future, so please save it locally.

HI @all.

i'm facing the same issue. I have an gitlab with an valid!!! self signed certificate. If I use my gitlab via https without webIDE everything works fine. But when I try to clone a repo it fails with: git-upload-pack permitted.

How can i use my own OnPremise gitlab Server.

btw. The certificate ist signed via letsencrypt. But it should'nt matter? Isn't it?

Hi Micha,

since we don't se a full stacktrace we can just guess. But if you are using SAP Web IDE for SAP HANA you should try to add your certificate to the SAP Web IDE SSL Certificate Administrator (di-cert-admin-ui).

Hi Hans,

i'm ussing SAP WEB IDE NOT for SAP Hana ... 😞 Any ideas what i can do here to get this running? I'm able to check, that the port is the problem.. I'm running on a different port like 443 i'm using 776. If I change my git to use 443 its working with SAP Web IDE. But NOT with my 776. What can i do here?

do you know a support adress or something like that?

Hi Micha,

if you have an so called S-User you can use https://launchpad.support.sap.com/ to open a support ticket.

But maybe it is easier to switch the port to 443...

Greetings
