Path configuration on Windows about gitlist

[tadev]

Does it list the Repos on the index page?
I had the same problem with NGinx, turned out that i only had to add a slash "/" to the url in every .twig file

Yes, the repos do list on the home page. If I manually insert the "index.php" into the URL I get (e.g. http://localhost/gitlist/index.php/myfoo/ ) it will display the repo's files.

However... if I use the URL format from the GitList demo site to make (what I imagine is) the correct file URL such as
http://localhost/gitlist/index.php/myfoo/blob/master/foo.txt/
I get "Oops! fatal: Path ''foo.txt'' does not exist in 'master'"
when I know it does exist because it's in the listing of the repo's files.

I also get "Oops! 'wc' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."
when I put in this URL http://localhost/gitlist/index.php/myfoo/commits/master - but I see that's mentioned here: #56

This is mildly annoying, because of all the PHP Git browsers I have seen, this looked the best in terms of interface and usage :-/

In regards to the "Oops! fatal: Path ''foo.txt'' does not exist in 'master'" problem, I encountered the same thing and I think it's something to do with how windows interprets single quotes vs double quotes.

I ran the git commands straight in command prompt:

git ls-tree -l master: "foo" -> returned the tree under the folder foo

git ls-tree -l master 'foo' -> returned nothing

I managed to get the tree working by switching single quotes and double quotes in the treeController.php and blobController.php

$files = $repository->getTree("$branch:'$tree'/");
to
$files = $repository->getTree($branch.':"'.$tree.'/"');

and

$blob = $repository->getBlob("$branch:'$file'");
to
$blob = $repository->getBlob($branch.':"'.$file.'"');

Not sure what effect this will have on Unix environments though

Hmmm, just tried a fresh clone, it faired even worse. Started afresh with master with the the "vendor" folder from 0.1 as it couldn't find those files. Everything worked apart from finding the commits.

I'm thinking I might try another product until this one matures... I'm pretty confident that this one will become a big player though for it's simple interface. Still early days for Git software...

Why has this been closed when it is still an issue in 2014?
http://gitserver/html/gitlist/ displays a list of Git repositories nicely for me.

Then when I click on one, e.g. test.git I get a message
Not Found
The requested URL /html/gitlist/test.git/ was not found on this server.

Gitlist appears to correctly find the git directory (/git) to list the repositories,
but then suddenly starts thinking for some reason that it actually contains them.

For information, my machine 'gitserver' is a Ubuntu LAMP server, and so the problem appears to
be with Gitlist (or my configuration thereof) and not to be windows specific.

This seems to be a common problem, see also

Since you're on LAMP, are you sure Apache is reading the .htaccess file and has mod_rewrite enabled?
