GIT requests from Unix installer packages are failing when going through the ProxySG.

Products

• ProxySG Software - SGOS

Issue/Introduction

When installing software add-ons or packages in a Unix environment, the GIT command is used to retrieve the needed files and install them.

Cause

When authentication is enabled, these commands might fail because the GIT protocol might not send the correct credentials.

Resolution

You must configure GIT on the Unix machine to use HTTPS rather than the GIT protocol.
