Could not checkout IntelliJ IDEA source code

Has anyone able to successfully download the source code & build IntelliJ IDEA?

I was using the instructions from this page http://www.jetbrains.org/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=983225

Both the approaches didn't work.

Command line error:

C:\sid\projects\IntelliJ>git clone git://git.jetbrains.org/idea/community.git idea

Initialized empty Git repository in C:/sid/projects/IntelliJ/idea/.git/

git.jetbrains.org[0: 174.129.30.43]: errno=No such file or directory

fatal: unable to connect a socket (No such file or directory)


IntelliJ IDEA Git Test connection error:

Cannot run program "git.exe" (in directory "."): CreateProcess error=2, The system cannot find the file specified

I have git.exe in the PATH



Any ideas?

are you running behind a corporate firewall ?

GIT is using a non standard port that is usually blocked by web proxies

Yep, that was the issue. Thanks Thibaut http://www.jetbrains.net/devnet/people/Thibaut.

Is it possible to have the git source code via HTTP too?

Thanks

$ git clone http://git.jetbrains.org/idea/community.git idea
Cloning into idea...
warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout.

Hi Luca,

What is the problem with the command below?

git clone git://git.jetbrains.org/idea/community.git idea

Lots of people are behind corporate firewall that blocks 9418 port, and can't do nothing about it.

Should be an easy fix, though, since you have already the source code via HTTP, just check your HEAD file.

Thanks

I'll talk to our admins about that.

Dear Denis,
What is the progress of this issue? (accessing the git.jetbrains repository via HTTP)



Also, I cannot check the progress in YouTrack, because when I try to access the YouTrack issue ADM-658, I get this error:

You have no permissions to view this page

Try to log in again, go to issues page (logged in as 'sorin_postelnicu'), or contact your system administrator.
