原因
- Git reads
config settings
from a variety of paths and the<USER>
doesn't have access to some of them. Git tries to read
root config setting
instead of<USER>
config settings due to the starting script using su command with do not reset environment variables option (-m):/bin/su -m $USER -c "cd $BASE/logs && $BASE/bin/startup.sh &> /dev/null"
- Bitbucket Server is being started as
root
with/etc/init.d/atlbitbucket start
script. Since theinit.d
script callsstart-bitbucket.sh
which usessu -m
this causes the environment variables forroot
to be preserved andatlbitbucket
does not have permission to write in theroot
home directory. - Git was compiled from source using the default settings which prevents any users other than the one that compiled Git from running it
- Bitbucket Server is being started on privileged ports (443 for instance) using external tools such as authbind. Due to that the child processes being spawned by Bitbucket to run git will run with privileged permissions and cause the warning on the client-side.
ソリューション
Fix the permissions on the files and directories with regard to the Bitbucket Server user performing the command:
chown <USER>.<GROUP> -R /home/<USER>/.config chown <USER>.<GROUP> -R /home/<USER>/.gitconfig
Change the
USER
.GROUP
by your username and group in your OS.It may be necessary to change the permissions in the folders above by granting the Bitbucket user read access to /root and write access to root/.config.
If Bitbucket Server starting script have su command, make sure that the option -m is not used.
If Bitbucket Server is being started with
/etc/init.d/atlbitbucket start
switch to starting Bitbucket Servering withservice atlbitbucket start
To have Bitbucket Server automatically start at boot, run
chkconfig atlbitbucket on
Recompile Git using more sensible defaults:
make prefix=/usr/local/git all make prefix=/usr/local/git install
