git instaweb gives 403 Forbidden - No projects found


running git instaweb in my repository opens a page that says "403 Forbidden - No projects found". What am I missing?


Solution

  • looks like the debian install of git sets $projectroot globally in a way that confuses instaweb. I removed the $projectroot line from /etc/gitweb.conf and the error went away.
