 Posted: Sun Apr 08, 2007 4:29 pm Post subject: How to configure Gitweb step by step |
 |
|
I want to setup my Git repository to Gitweb server in order to conveniently browse my code.
after install gitweb package, I edit the gitweb.cgi looks like below:
| Code: |
# core git executable to use
# this can just be "git" if your webserver has a sensible PATH
our $GIT = "/root/bin/git";
# absolute fs-path which will be prepended to the project path
#our $projectroot = "/pub/scm";
our $projectroot = "/repos/git/"
# target of the home link on top of all pages
our $home_link = $my_uri || "/";
# string of the home link on top of all pages
our $home_link_str = "projects";
# name of your site or organization to appear in page titles
# replace this with something more descriptive for clearer bookmarks
our $site_name = ""
|| ($ENV{'SERVER_NAME'} || "Untitled") . " Git";
|
and configure the /etc/apache/httpd.conf, add alias to gitweb.cgi
| Code: |
ScriptAlias /gitweb "/var/www/localhost/htdocs/gitweb/gitweb.cgi"
|
I restart Apache2, and visit the gitweb alias address in Firefox.
I can see the Gitweb error message:
| Quote: | Software error:
syntax error at /var/www/localhost/htdocs/gitweb/gitweb.cgi line 39, near "our "
Global symbol "$home_link" requires explicit package name at /var/www/localhost/htdocs/gitweb/gitweb.cgi line 39.
Global symbol "$home_link" requires explicit package name at /var/www/localhost/htdocs/gitweb/gitweb.cgi line 1773.
Execution of /var/www/localhost/htdocs/gitweb/gitweb.cgi aborted due to compilation errors.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (root@localhost), giving this error message and the time and date of the error. |
I tried to follow the official INSTALL and README document in the source package,
but I can't understood exactly!
Any one can tell me Gitweb configuraiton step by step, advanced appreciation !!! |

| Just incase you didn't figure out what the problem is, you are missing a semi-colon at the end of the $projectroot line. |
