Fatal : The remote end hung up unexpectedly libcurl result = 7

Question

I have tried just about every answer on Stackoverflow, here is what I am seeing

Delta compression using up to 8 threads.

efrror: RPC failed; result=7, HTTP code = 401
atal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
Everything up-to-date

important to note: I am using TFS Git server(Maybe that is my problem, lol)

Things I have tried:

• making sure the url is right with git remote -v (yep everything checked out)
• increasing the global http.postBuffer to 524288000

Interesting thing about error message: The RPC failed; result=7 is interesting in most cases on the stack overflow the result has either been in the 50's or in the 20's, the error I think comes from libcurl. If this is the case then I am getting a CURLE_COULDNT_CONNECT (7), from TFS, which I have no idea why. Has anyone else encountered this error? Or know of way to fix the problem I am seeing?

Error codes for Curl are here http://curl.haxx.se/libcurl/c/libcurl-errors.html

Answer 1

I don't think it comes from libcurl. Because...

HTTP code = 401

... means that libcurl got a HTTP response back and the response code said 401. 401 means that you weren't authenticated to access that resource. Wrong username or password or similar.
