I’m upgrading from version 4.2 to 5.0.15, to run the command:

bundle install

I had the error:

Can anyone help?

Hi Douglas,

there are several possible reasons for a refused connection..
It does not seem to be related to git, for I can clone the repo without errors.

So what might be possible is that

1. your firewall does not allow gits cutsom ports
2. you are using a proxy

Can you confirm this?
Otherwise there has to be another reason, which I did not think of..

Best
Oliver

Hi guys,

It is probably a firewall / proxy issue, as I came across a similar error while updating my server.
I guess the OP team rewrote many git repositories URLs which are now based on git:// prefix.

There’s a simple fix though : you just have to copy the attached .gitconfig file in /home/openproject (with adequate permissions), and it should do the trick !
The config file forces git to use https:// prefix in place of git://

Best regards,
Guillaume.

Hi Guillaume,

worked for me, but I placed it to /root because I’m doing the update as root.

Nevertheless I have no clue what happens during “configure” because it seems some data is still fetched by git://

Fortunately, it was successfull!

That’s because Git rewrites the URLs ‘under the hood’ : when it displays ‘git://****’, it actually fetches repositories with https:// :)

Hey Florian,

the setting Guillaume mentioned is overriding our default setting to use the Git protocol and instead requesting the repositories through http(s).
(Btw: That workaround is mentioned for bower (not bundler) in the installation guide)

Thanks Guillaume for the support!

Best,
Oliver

Glad to help !
