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.

You need to customize the proxy server settings in your di-core application, then restage and restart the application. Here is an example for how to do it if your proxy settings are as follows:

https_proxy: myproxy.mycompany.corp:8080

no_proxy: *.mycompany.corp,localhost,127.0.0.1,10.*

#Set the JBP_CONFIG_JAVA_OPTS environment property for the di-core application
#Note the replacement of the comma with the pipe ("|")
xs set-env di-core JBP_CONFIG_JAVA_OPTS '[java_opts: "-Dhttps.proxyHost=myproxy.mycompany.corp -Dhttps.proxyPort=8080 -Dhttp.nonProxyHosts=\\\"*.mycompany.corp|localhost|127.0.0.1|10.*\\\""]' 

#Restage the application to replace the cached environment variable
xs restage di-core 

#Restart the application to have the JVM start with the new settings
xs restart di-core

Hi Carl,

I'm in the same situation as Emmanuel. I'm not using any proxy and facing the same issues as mentioned previously.

SAP WebIDE version: SAP Web IDE for HANA 2 SPS 02 Patch 0 ( Build 4.2.14 )

Any idea?

Kind regards,

Thijs

Hello

As you do not have a proxy, you have to set the gateway via Yast.

Hi,

I just wanted to say that it was the DHCP that was configured wrongly. For anyone facing these issues, try to figure out you DO have connection to the web. If not, try to start looking from there.

Thanks for the help,

Kind regards,

Thijs
