I tried with the latest codebase and could clone a repository on my local filesystem without problem (the path needs to be the folder containing the git repository's .git folder).

As for your architecture; we don't support what you describe - which appears to be a distributed git installation with automatic synchronization of commits between the two.

Changes you make to files within "Drools Workbench installation 1" (using the cloned repository "REPO-A-Cloned-1") will only appear in the clone. 

You will need to handle a mechanism to push the commits made there to it's origin (i.e. REPO-A) and synchronization to REPO-A-Clone-2.

Google returns links to server-side scripts you can run to synchronize different GIT repositories; however you'll probably encounter merge conflicts if a single file was modified in both clones.

With kind regards,

Mike

Due to this error it’s not cloning it. Below is the architecture in which I am deploying the Workbench. Two Workbench instances, one central GIT repo and One central Maven Repo (Details as below)

 

My architecture for Drools deployment is we will deploy two Drools Workbench instances. We will create one central GIT repository, REPO-A.git, which will be cloned by both the instances, REPO-A-Cloned-1, REPO-A-Cloned-2. If any file is committed in instance A, REPO-A-Cloned-1, should also appear in instance B, REPO-A-Cloned-2, and that asset should also appear in central repo, REPO-A.

You won't need a user id or password.

The remote origin error message is thrown by the underlying jgit library we use.

Any repository that is cloned is considered a "remote" in git terms. The fact that it's on your local machine makes no difference in git terms.

Hi,

 

I am trying to clone a repo in Drools WorkBench and getting the following error,

 

"Can't clone repository. java.lang.RuntimeException:Invalid remote: origin"

 

The repository which I am cloning, resides in my local machine. D:/Servers/Drools-6-Deployment/repo/repoA.git

 

Following are the inputs I am providing to WorkBench clone Wizard,

 

"Repository Name           = repoCloned" "Organizational Unit = inTech"

"GIT URL                              = file:///D:/Servers/Drools-6-Deployment/repo/repoA.git"

"User Name                       = " (Currently I am giving my github account cred. What to give in user name?)

"Password                          = " (Currently I am giving my github account cred. What to give as password?)

 

Question 1

Why am I getting remote origin error when I am cloning from a local GIT repository ?

 

Question 2

Kindly let me know what to give as User Name and Password when I am cloning from an existing GIT repo in my local filesystem ?

 

 

 

Regards,

Zahid Ahmed
