Hello everyone.

I'm new to hgLab.I just installed the server side site.Created a Project and a repository.

But when I try to do a CLONE the repository following the url.

An error happen:
repository hg clone not found... command returned code 255

Here is my clone url:
hg clone http://[email blocked]:85/hg/slug1/r1

I found that there is a prefix with an @ signal before my server url.

Is that prefix correct?

If not how to remove that from my clone url?

Thanks in advance.

   This:
   

   hg clone http://[email blocked]:85/hg/slug1/r1
   

   is not a Clone URL, but a full command that you're supposed to run from the command prompt. Your actual Clone URL is http://[email blocked]:85/hg/slug1/r1.

   Hello Anton.

   Thanks for the quick replay :)

   I have run the command in the server by using cmd.exe

   It seems it works in some degree.

   And run the following command

   cd R1
   (echo. && echo [ui]) >> ..hg\hgrc (echo username = gqy117 ^<[email blocked]^> && echo.) >> ..hg\hgrc echo [auth] >> ..hg\hgrc
   (echo hglab.prefix = http://gqy117.cloudapp.net:85/hg && echo hglab.username = gqy117) >> ..hg\hgrc

   After that it seems the Clone Instructions still display the same thing as before.

   I'm just not sure what should I do next?

   Thanks.

   The second set of commands is entirely optional just writes a bunch of
   stuff to .hg/hgrc, which is a configuration file for your local Mercurial
   repository. It sets up your username, authentication prefix and other
   settings. These commands do not affect Cloning Instructions page in any
   way.

   Now that you've successfully cloned a repository, you can start working
   with it as usual: committing, viewing logs, diffing, pulling, pushing, etc.
   If you're new to Mercurial, here's an excellent tutorial to get you
   started: http://hginit.com/ .
