I can’t clone my repository via http: abort: ‘ http://MYREPO ‘ does not appear

  • 0

I can’t clone my repository via http:

abort: ‘http://MYREPO‘ does not appear to be an hg repository!

Firstly, I created a new repo by hg init MYREPO followed by adding some file and commit.

The dir with my repo is password protected but there is no sign of problem because of it, I tried both methods of cloning:
(on my local machine)

hg clone http://MYREPO my_repo

and

hg clone http://user:password@MYREPO my_repo

Permissions of repo dir are: drwxrwxr-x

I can clone this very repository on my remote machine (the same repo is on) without any problems.

What could be possibly wrong?

    Argh… One need to be careful with .htaccess configuration. In my case I needed to add ‘hgwebdir.cgi’ to the path to clone… Thanks for the answers though!

    SSH seems logical but somehow I couldn’t use it with user other than my local:

    hg clone ssh://MY_REMOTE_USER@MYREPO
    remote: abort: There is no Mercurial repository here (.hg not found)!
