Mark, First of all: the email you forwarded suggests that there's a mismatch between the CSRF (Cross Site Request Forgery) token stored in your user session and the one rendered in the form in your browser. I see that you used "http://git/"; in the URL, which means that you probably didn't get a session cookie at all; Gitorious needs a fully qualified domain name (ie. containing at least one period) for sessions to work. I would assume your server has a fully qualified address, you should use that one in your browser. The config/gitorious.yml file on your server specifies which FQDN your server is configured as, this value should match the hostname you use when connecting. Are you sure it was the Gitorious server prompting you for a password, not the ssh client asking you for the SSH passphrase? If it's not the password, try running SSH directly: ssh git@<your server> Cheers, - Marius -- -- To post to this group, send email to gitorious@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to gitorious+unsubscr...@googlegroups.com --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Gitorious" group.
