SparkleShare

[linuxtrap]

Hi all

I have just started to use my B3 as a git server, and by installing SparkleShare you can have your own file synchronizing service. (same like dropbox)

You find more info: http://sparkleshare.org/
and how to install the server : https://github.com/hbons/SparkleShare/wiki/How-to-set-up-your-own-server

It's in beta, but its tested and it run on my B3.

Regards

I had some issues getting this running on versions of Sparkleshare prior to 0.2.2 (Hylke, the Sparkleshare maintainer told me they had fixed some authentication issues recently), but now everything works amazingly well!

Works great with a git server installed on one of my B3's

Saw that the Win-client (finaly) arrived so this can be my app to use from my work.
(warning: you need .net framework V4 for it on your windows client)

But no connection possible.
What have I done:

First installed git

Code: Select all

root@b3:/home# apt-get install git-core

And a little check:

Code: Select all

root@b3:/home# git --version
git version 1.7.2.5

After that followed the instructions on http://sparkleshare.org/set-up-a-host/
All went well till the code 'chown -R git git.'
if I'm alright it gives user 'git' the righta on file 'git.'

Code: Select all

root@b3:/home/git# chown -R git git.
chown: cannot access `git.': No such file or directory

OK, maybe I'm a level to high (I'm in the map git) so dropped down one to /home and repeated the command
But still the same result.
Finaly without the point and that went without feedback.

little check:

Code: Select all

root@b3:/home# ls -l
drwxr-xr-x  7 git    git    4096 Mar 12 12:15 git

Group git? Is that alright?

Finaly fired up the client and tried to connect. Changed my ssh port so used that same port to make a connection. That didn't work.

Anyone a suggestion how I can get this to work?

Update after the reply form yesterday.

It works at home at the moment.
Made one litte mistake yesterday.
I made a repository with the name REPOSITORY
The client has to make connection to the full path on the server (I found out).
So I filled in the adres of the server with the correct portname for my ssh connection and with remote path I filled in '/home/git//REPOITORY'.
Then it worked.
