Deleting a branch is permanent. Although the deleted branch may continue to exist for a short time before it actually gets removed, it CANNOT be undone in most cases. Continue?
Could be useful to note in the README that the redis password cannot contain spcecial characters that will make the connection string invalid.
Struggled with this issue for +2 hours, the error given by the gitea pod was:
which is not very helpful.
I tried everything, until I noticed the issue was the password in the connection string containing special characters.
PRs welcome - although we can't do much here as we're only using the bitnami subchart. But worth a note!
If you can connect to Redis with your defined password by using a redis compatible interface (e.g. Redis Desktop Manager or similar) it means the Bitnami Chart properly handled your password and the issue is on our side while building the connection string. If you cannot connect to Redis at all, Bitnami has an issue as well.
@4erf Could you check and let us know? Maybe we only have to urlencode the password component of the url.
I also had this problem. I can connect to the Redis pod using
redis-cliwhile the Gitea pod is in CrashLoopBackOff complaining about not being to connect to Redis. I don't have access to any other clients at the moment.Sticking to letters and numbers in the password makes the deployment work.
