HTTP Request Failed when cloning

0
On a clean version of Windows, installed clean GitStack. Repository ans Users setup.

Went to Git client and tried to clone, but it says HTTP request failed. I see there is a Gitstack port 80 open on the server so not sure whats going on.

Is there something else that I need to open on the firewall??

I did a reboot on the server to see if that would do anything but no luck.

Nothing in the apache error log either

Thanks


P.S : Turned off the firewall and it let me clone however it did not ask for a password! HELP!

P.P.S : Put the clone into Github for Windows and that asked for username/password so hopefully that is ok. However the firewall issue is still there!!

P.P.P.S : If I create a custom rule that allows port 80 open for all programs/services etc it works. If I disable it, it doesn’t work. I can’t see any difference between that firewall rule and the GitStack firewall rule. HELP!

P.P.P.P.S : The only difference with my firewall rule is that I set it to All Programs and Services whereas GitStack’s rule is only for the GitStack service. Please help!!

P.P.P.P.S : Ok, getting annoyed now. What other services does GitStack use? If I set the rule to just allow services it works which means no programs are using it, if I set the service to only GitStack it doesnt work so therefore more than one service must be being used for pushing changes to repository.

P.P.P.P.P.S : Ok, changed to https and still no luck, turned off my firewall rule and modified Gitstack to 443 port and still no luck, changed Gitstack firewall rule to be “Services only” not just Gitstack service and it works. @GitStack we have a problem :)

GitStack might not ask for a password if the repo is empty.

"P.P.P.S : If I create a custom rule that allows port 80 open for all programs/services etc it works. If I disable it, it doesn’t work. I can’t see any difference between that firewall rule and the GitStack firewall rule. HELP! "

It seems that you found the solution yourself :). We will check on our side what's wrong with this firewall.

I found the difference between the two firewall rules. I have created a ticket for the issue. A fix will be released in the next version.
