The most common issues with abapGit are listed here
There are several ways to connect from your SAP system to a git server. For example:
- SAP System > HTTP/S > Git Server
- SAP System > HTTP/S > Proxy > Git Server
- SAP System > Exit( RFC Destination ) > HTTP/S > Git Server
- SAP System > Exit( RFC Destination + Proxy ) > HTTP/S > Git Server
Be sure to check all areas.
Reading public repositories typically does not require authentication to the git server. However, accessing private repositories or trying to update repositories in general will require authentication.
- Check your user and password
- Check if the server requires a token as the password (for example, GitHub)
- Test your credentials using a command line tool (git, curl, etc)
- Check if the git servers requires
.gitat the end of the repository URL (for example, GitLab) - Check if it's a private repository that requires authentication
Also: ICM_HTTP_SSL_ERROR, SSSLERROR_SSL_READ, SSSLRC_CONN_CLOSED
- Check the proxy configuration in abapGit Global Settings
- Check the SSL Setup
- Use the SSL Test Tool to verify the connection
Also: NIECONN_REFUSED
- Check SAP system parameters in SAP Note 510007
Also: ICM_HTTP_SSL_PEER_CERT_UNTRUSTED, SSSLERR_PEER_CERT_UNTRUSTED
- Check the SSL Setup
- Use the SSL Test Tool to verify the connection
Try to run the latest version of SAP GUI. Older version are known to have issues. SAP GUI for Windows is the most used and tested client.
- Check the SAP GUI Setup
Which object types are supported in your system depends on the combination of abapGit and SAP releases.
- Check "Debug Info" from the tools menu on the repository overview (shows the object types supported in your system)
- Check the List of Supported Object Types (most recent release)
- Check Requests for Supporting New Object Types (unchecked means "not supported")
Behaviour of abapGit can be changed using User Exits.
- Check "Debug Info" from the tools menu on the repository overview (shows which exits are active in your system)
- In case of issues, deactivate all exits to narrow down the root cause.
If you are using the ADT abapGit plugin provided by SAP, check SAP BTP, Working with abapGit.
