Sometimes it times out on angular-animate, sometimes on bootstrap, sometimes on something else. What's wrong?

[petebacondarwin]

Sounds like you have a flaky connection to github...

[pmichna]

I'm new to AngularJS, node.js and npm. Any way to do manually what needs to be done?

[petebacondarwin]

Hi @pmichna.

Angular phonecat uses bower to retrieve its dependencies including AngularJS, from github.

The problem is that from where you are the connection to the github servers is not being very reliable. Github is a separate service, not controlled by AngularJS or bower.

It is hard to know what the problem is. It could be a transient issue that will go away if you try again later. It may be that you have some kind of firewall that is intermittently blocking connections.

[pmichna]

Ok, I contacted IT support in my company. However, that's strange. I can normally ping github.com, I can do git clone from GitHub repositories. I can't understand what could be wrong then.

[pmichna]

The problem was that bower tried to retrieve packages through git:// protocol, which seems to be blocked at my machine.

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// solved the problem.

[petebacondarwin]

Excellent. Glad you worked it out. Well done.

[karthigb]

Thanks @pmichna I was having the same problem 👍

[maximeberthelot]

Thanks ! It resolve now !

[gregory]

awesome! Indeed this issue happened to me cause i was behind firewall restriction on protocols :)

[deepaksinghvi]

Thanks, its very helpful.

[zckrs]

👍

[alexandremaeda]

Thanks, solved for me!

[DerGitHubUser]

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// worked here too. Seeing I'm new to Node, Git and the rest , this was a great find.

Thank you.

Hi Yogeshm, I am facing the same issue. Did you find any solution?

fatal: unable to access 'https:// https:/// github.com/es-shims/es5-shim.git/': Could not resolve host: <https

[petebacondarwin]

@yogesh-raj and @dgokulakrishnan - did you try the git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// fix?

[yogesh-raj]

@pete and @dgokulakrishnan yes this helped me... it solved ma issue some
day back ... sorry @pete i couldn't update you that time.

[pete]

@yogesh-raj You're welcome, but I don't think I did much to help.

[petebacondarwin]

@pete :-)

[dgokulakrishnan]

@pete and @yogesh-raj Thanks for your responses..Initially I did not set the config property properly. It worked only after doing the unset and replace all.

git config --global --unset-all url.https
git config --global –replace-all url.https “//.insteadof=git://”

[vinceFC]

Thanks for the trick. Worked for me!

[francoiscoron]

Thank's so much @pmichna !

[wdalrymple]

this didn't work for me at all. Bower / git is still using the "git://"

[wovalle]

@pmichna Thank you! now I can do bower installs through my company's firewall.

[claudia1204]

@pmichna :
Thank you very much!!!
I solved this problem with this command: git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git;
reason: firewall

[erdemildiz]

@pmichna Thanks

[HarishBoke]

Thanks a lot! @pmichna git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// solved the problem.

[Priyanka-Naik]

thanks 👍

[celsonrd]

Obrigado! otima dica.

[wholehogsoftware]

Works for me as well.

[seb-pax]

Ca marche pour moi aussi ...
Thanks a lot

[torcellite]

Ah, thank you.

[arcreative]

👍 This works for me as well... thanks guys!

[huangruoyu]

great! very helpful!!!

[borislopezaraoz]

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// worked for me! Thanks!

[guilherme22]

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// worked for me too ! Thanks !

[swapy]

Yes this works perfect! Thanks.

[git-msp]

I did git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://
but still issue

Tanks Brow
git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://
It worked !

[phppa]

Excelente, resolveu o problema !

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git://

[PStoner3]

I am still experiencing this issue.
Here is my global .gitconfig
[filter "lfs"]
required = true
clean = git-lfs clean %f
smudge = git-lfs smudge %f
[user]
name = Paul Stoner
email = pstoner6765@gmail.com
[core]
gitProxy = "ssh" for "kernal.org"
gitProxy=default-proxy
[http]
proxy = http://:
[https]
proxy = http://:
[url "https://"]
insteadOf = git://

As you can see, I've set my proxy, set the url.https. Nothing seems to work.
I am running
Node V5.0.0
npm v3.8.9
bower v1.7.9
git v2.8.1.windows.1

I simply cannot seem to get bower working

[ChrisGrigg]

@PStoner3 I was in the same predicament as you. To solve it I just removed "http.proxy", "https.proxy" and "url..insteadOf" from the global and local .gitconfig files and it worked. Perhaps I had conflicts with other settings on my system and simplifying things helped.

[saumyaraj]

@pmichna Thanks. Appreciate!!

[brandonmceachern]

I'm working behind a firewall and change the config url.. Also, I keep trying bower install. The downloads would time out but each try added more to the cache so eventually I had all the dependencies.

[savanr]

For me reverse engineering works 😜

git config --global url."git://".insteadOf https://

If you have manually run above commands then you should remove those entries first from ~/.gitconfig file. So for that open that file

nano ~/.gitconfig

Replace these lines

[url "https://"]
    insteadOf = git:// 

with this

[url "git://"]
    insteadOf = https://

Save and restart your terminal.

[cdll]

git config --global url."https://".insteadOf git:// did not solve my problem but git config --global url."git://".insteadOf https:// that @savanr said help me a lot~
hope everyone see here and so much thank to @savanr 😊
