Mercurial push, abort: authorization failed
Solution 1:
If anybody wants to make it run on local machine then
adding this to server REPO/.hg/hgrc
will do the work:
[web]
allow_push = *
push_ssl = false
as described at this site.
Solution 2:
Problem turned out to be repo dir permissions. chown www-data
solved it...
Solution 3:
For those with TortoiseHg pushing to a web server (another unauthorized user on another PC):
In TortoiseHg: File - Settings - (Either globally or just for the current repository - tabs)
then the Server
settings.
Web Server
Push Requires SSL - No
Allow Push - *
This does the same thing through the UI as lukmdo
's answer above (editing the hgrc file).
Solution 4:
It is strange that you can run hg outgoing
but not hg push
since it is my understanding that they both authenticate in the same way.
Unfortunately I'm not a hgweb expert. Please mail to the Mercurial list ([email protected]) and/or come online in IRC (#mercurial
on irc.freenode.net
). There will be many more people to help you there. IRC is especially good since these things are much easier to debug interactively.
Solution 5:
Just in case it might help someone - I encountered this error for unknown reasons, all permissions were OK, and just restarting apache solved it.
