Eclipse egit not working [message #1763863] Mon, 22 May 2017 06:32 Go to next message

(this post initially comes from the newcomers forum, sorry for not knowing where to post it from the beginning)

Hello,

I am trying to fetch from upstream using Eclipse.

If I right click on my project and go to Team -> Fetch from upstream, I get this error after a few seconds:

git-server:my-project: unknown host.

However if I type git fetch from the command line in the my-project folder, it works. In the Eclipse preferences, the ssh2 home points to my .ssh folder, and the .ssh/config contains a git-server line.

The project was cloned from the command line.

I don't see what's wrong, can you please help me ?

Have you tried without an alias? I.e., using ssh://<user>@myhost.example.org/... URLs for the remotes?

Well the alias is actually an alias to some ssh configuration, which includes proxy configuration, so I don't have direct access to the server. But using an alias shouldn't be a problem, assuming the ssh configuration is correct...

What kind of proxy configuration is in your .ssh/config for this git server ?
It's hard to guess what might be wrong without seeing the actual config.

my ssh config is rather simple, it's something like
host git-server
user my-user
hostname 192.168.0.1
ProxyCommand /usr/bin/connect -a none -S 1.2.3.4 %h %p

but I doubt this is the issue, since I can git fetch from the command line. I just can't fetch from eclipse.

I don't think Jsch (the Java ssh library Eclipse and JGit use) does ProxyCommand. Moreover, Jsch definitely doesn't do %-token substitution.
