Solved: Fix for Git clone failure due to GnuTLS recv error (-9)


My devstack installation was failing with an error reported by the GnuTLS module as shown below:

$ git clone https://github.com/openstack/horizon.git /opt/stack/horizon --branch master
Cloning into '/opt/stack/horizon'...
remote: Counting objects: 154213, done.
remote: Compressing objects: 100% (11/11), done.
error: RPC failed; curl 56 GnuTLS recv error (-9): A TLS packet with unexpected length was received.
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: early EOF
fatal: index-pack failed

The following Git config changes fixed the issue for me. Am hoping it will be useful for someone out there:

$ git config http.sslVerify false
$ git config --global http.postBuffer 1048576000

QuickBite: Tap Vs Veth

Linux supports virtual networking via various artifacts such as: Soft Switches (Linux Bridge, OpenVSwitch) Virtual Network Adapters (tun, tap, veth and a few more) In this blog, we will look at the virtual network adapters tap and veth. From a practical view point, both seem to be having the same functionality and its a bit confusing as to where to use what. A quick definition of tap/veth is as follows: TAP A TAP is a simulated interface which exists only in the kernel and has no physical component associated with it. It can be viewed as a simple Point-to-Point or Ethernet device, which instead of receiving packets from a physical media, receives them from user space program and instead of sending packets via physical media writes them to the user space program. When a user space program (in our case the VM) gets attached to the tap interface it gets hold of a file descriptor, reading from which gives it the data being sent on the tap interface. Writing to the file descri...

[Solved] Fixing ping: ***** : Name or service not known issue

I have a Virtualbox VM running Ubuntu 19.05 Desktop version and the network is managed by NetworkManager. It has two interfaces attached to NAT and HostOnly networks. Due to some reason, I was not able to ping my office site and when I looked up in resolv.conf I see that its a symbolic link auto generated by systemd-resolve. One thing that caught my attention was that the name server was set as below: nameserver 127.0.0.53 The following sequence of steps helped me in resolving this issue: UI NetworkManager --> IPV4 --> Set DNS to Manual and add 1.1.1.1, 8.8.8.8 for dns. Then run the below command sudo dhclient Hope this helps someone out there.
