Git repo raft showing as empty

[gurdip.sira_1271]

Hi
I installed Otter 2022 and it looks good, but back to square one with the git raft not showing contents. Attached is the configuration but I hace x'd out sensitive details. The repo is the Git repo one of the engineers linked to in my other thread, and has a /scripts folder.

Hi @gurdip-sira_1271 ,

We don't think anything changed with regards to Git Rafts & Otter v2022, and don't have any issues on our end with them.

Is this a new instance with them or something?

Cheers,
Alana

New instance yup, completely fresh install. Could you provide end-to-end instructions on how to do this? As when I got this working previousy it was after trying many things so wasn't clear what fixed it.

Hi @gurdip-sira_1271,

If you navigate to Administration -> Raft Repositories, then click "browse" to the right of your Git repository, does your raft load or do you get an error?

Also a couple of notes:

• You should not enter a user name and password if you are using a Secure Credential. These may be conflicting.
• Git rafts use the generic git extension, so you will need to use a Username & Password credential instead of a GitHub Credential
  • Just enter your PAT as the password
• You may need to recreate your raft repository because clearing the password field normally just marks it as unchanged

Please give these a try (including browsing in your git raft) and see if that works for you.

Thanks,
Rich

This is actually what fixed it! Just before your post, I tried this. The textbox text for the password says from a username/password so that was a clue!

However, my problem now is that in my raft (in the scripts folder), I have ps1 scripts but when I have an otter file, in the GUI, I can't see these scripts?

Remember, the git repo is a copy of the Otter example one that was posted in the other thread I made.

Ok so I can see the files in my raft, in the scipts page now, and in general in the otter script options. I think there must be a scheduled job for them to show? However, when i select one I get this error:

Any ideas?

Hi @gurdip-sira_1271,

Can you share your OtterScript for that operation? Or does this happen when you try to add that OtterScript script as an operation?

Thanks,
Rich

[gurdip.sira_1271]

Happens with vany file in the raft, eg any Powershell script and any blank Otterscript.

Hi @gurdip-sira_1271,

Thanks for sending over the information. I have identified the issue, OT-472, and we plan to release a fix in Otter 2022.3 that is due out next Friday. I'll let you know if anything changes.

Thanks,
Rich

Hi @gurdip-sira_1271,

Yes, this will be released with Otter later today.

Thanks,
Rich
