Can't install using npm on Kubuntu 15.04

Can't install using npm on Kubuntu 15.04

[cjb]

@CODeRUS I don't know what's happening there, but reading closely this looks like a warning rather than an error, so I think the install actually worked?

[CODeRUS]

It's not working, git saying following: fatal: Unable to find remote helper for 'gittorrent'

[cjb]

@CODeRUS How about if you add -g, like:

sudo npm install -g gittorrent

[CODeRUS]

output:

sudo npm install -g gittorrent

[cjb]

And does it work now? It looks like it placed git-remote-gittorrent in /usr/local/bin.

[CODeRUS]

Testing again:

git clone gittorrent://github.com/MacManus88/sailfish-pr0gramm
Cloning into 'sailfish-pr0gramm'...

and no more output given

[cjb]

That's probably fine; it means no-one's seeding that, and I don't have the fallback to getting it over git:// yet.

[CODeRUS]

okay then. where to get info about seeding repos?

[cjb]

From the README:

Or serve your own repos with:

touch somerepo/.git/git-daemon-export-ok
gittorrentd

[CODeRUS]

should gittorrentd stay running after execution? For me it exiting without any output.

[cjb]

Yeah, should stay running. Could you paste:

DEBUG=* gittorrentd

[CODeRUS]

Same. No output.

[cjb]

Maybe your "touch" didn't work.

[CODeRUS]

See following:

$ ls
branches  COMMIT_EDITMSG  config  description  GIT_COLA_MSG  git-daemon-export-ok  gitk.cache  HEAD  hooks  index  info  logs  modules  objects  ORIG_HEAD  refs
$ DEBUG=* gittorrentd

[cjb]

Ah, you need to run gittorrentd from the directory above the git repo.

$ ls ./somerepo/.git # should work
$ gittorrentd

[CODeRUS]

This way? Still no ouput:

 ~/SailfishProjects $ ls mitakuuluu3/.git
branches  COMMIT_EDITMSG  config  description  GIT_COLA_MSG  git-daemon-export-ok  gitk.cache  HEAD  hooks  index  info  logs  modules  objects  ORIG_HEAD  refs
 ~/SailfishProjects $ DEBUG=* gittorrentd

[cjb]

Huh. Sorry, running out of ideas..

[CODeRUS]

Keep this updated if you figure it out please :)

[cjb]

Is it possible that your network blocks outgoing port 6881 connections?

[CODeRUS]

Everything is possible. Any way to test it?

[cjb]

I'm tempted to say "go somewhere else". :)

[CODeRUS]

Well, testing using http://portquiz.net:6881/ passed

[dpc]

Was this solved? I have the same problem (gittorrentd just exits after a while).

[cjb]

@dpc I ran out of ideas.. could you paste your full terminal session with "DEBUG=* gittorrentd" in case it brings anything up?

[dpc]

@cjb stdout: http://sprunge.us/PJIa stderr: http://sprunge.us/cUKE

[cjb]

@dpc Thanks, that's interesting. Can you add the below console.log line to gittorrentd and let me know what gets output?

    var ls = git.ls(repo, function (sha, ref) {
        console.log(repo, sha, ref)

[dpc]

http://sprunge.us/LBCM http://sprunge.us/ULWX

[cjb]

Thanks. What platform are you on?

[dpc]

Fedora 21, x64

[dpc]

This line did not executed, did it?

[cjb]

No, it didn't. I think git ls-remote mioco failed. What happens when you run that manually in a shell?

[dpc]

[futex:tmp/gittorrent]% git ls-remote mioco
fatal: 'mioco' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

...

[futex:tmp/gittorrent]% cd mioco 
[futex:gittorrent/mioco] (master!)% git st
## master...origin/master
(...)

[cjb]

And is "mioco/" inside that directory? (Does ls mioco work?)

[dpc]

I edited previous answer.

[futex:gittorrent/mioco] (master!)% cd ..
[futex:tmp/gittorrent]% git ls mioco
[futex:tmp/gittorrent]% cd mioco 
[futex:gittorrent/mioco] (master!)% git ls
.gitignore
.travis.yml
Cargo.toml
LICENSE-MPL2
Makefile
README.md
examples/echo.rs
examples/echoplus.rs
examples/mailbox.rs
src/lib.rs
src/tests.rs

[cjb]

How about git ls-remote mioco/.git?

[dpc]

[futex:tmp/gittorrent]% git ls-remote mioco/.git
fatal: 'mioco/.git' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

[dpc]

[futex:tmp/gittorrent]% git --version
git version 2.1.0

[cjb]

How about:

cd mioco
git ls-remote .

?

[cjb]

And do you have any theories on why your git repository doesn't appear to be a git repository? :)

[dpc]

[futex:tmp/gittorrent]% cd mioco 
[futex:gittorrent/mioco] (master!)% git ls-remote .

[cjb]

Oh! Well that's weird.

[dpc]

Let me strace this thing...

[dpc]

I think the reason is that my ~ is under git control. I've moved the directory to /tmp and now it works, and the line you pasted did print stuff.

[dpc]

BTW. What's the deal with "Can't publish mutable key: doesn't fit in 950 bytes." now?

[cjb]

It's because you have too many branches. :) That's issue #52.
