Redmine

am having the same problem, same set up apart from using svn

i tried to find out some more information..

when i try to push with a username, it fails

git push origin master
Password for 'http://admin@git.domain.int:80': 
error: Cannot access URL http://admin@git.domain.int:80/test/, return code 22
fatal: git-http-push failed

the repository config file:

cat .git/config 
[core]
    repositoryformatversion = 0
    filemode = true
    bare = false
    logallrefupdates = true
[remote "origin"]
    fetch = +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
    url = http://admin@192.168.120.100:81/test
[branch "master"]
    remote = origin
    merge = refs/heads/master

and the apache log (with debug infos from apache and passenger)

don't know if these logs are helpful..

The Problem is Redmine.pm doesn't check if user is admin. It only checks if the user has read or write properties to the project. Admin hasn't by default any rights in projects (but you can add admin user manually to a project). The special rights for admin is handled separate in redmine but not in Redmine.pm (see #5070).

Ok, then you should get a "unauthorized"? NO (due this error #11475). If Redmine.pm fails it tries the next auth provider and searches to a AuthUserFile. But none is given. You can fix this adding "AuthUserFile /dev/null".

Hey Florian

Thanks for your input. But its not a problem of the admin account. I tried it with my normal account (non-admin) and the admin account (assigned to the projects).
But I get always the same error..

I'm also having the same issue with Redmine 2.2 on two separate servers when used for Subversion access. The module works as intended to allow/deny access, but the log records are filled with AuthUserFile not specified in the configuration.

Just for the record: I also had this issue. But there's a simple fix to make authentication work again: just add

AuthUserFile /dev/null

e.g. below "Require valid-user". The only issue left is that you still get log entries like

[Wed May 22 23:41:34 2013] [error] [client aa.bb.cc.dd] user xyz not found: /def

all the time, but the authentication works fine. There was some discussion in #11475, but no real solution so far.
