Can't retrieve Gitolite param : for sudo -n -u git -i gitolite query-rc GL_BINDIR

[hamdijmii1992]

After reaching (successfully) step (7) in http://redmine-git-hosting.io/get_started/ tutorial, I tried to open "Redmine Git Hosting" menu but I got this error from redmine log :

Rendered settings/plugin.html.erb within layouts/admin (31.7ms)
Completed 500 Internal Server Error in 41.5ms

ActionView::Template::Error (Permission denied @ rb_sysopen - /opt/redmine/redmine/log/git_hosting.log):

   6:     %td= l(:label_temp_dir_writeable)
   7:     %td= render_temp_dir_writeable(RedmineGitHosting::Config.temp_dir_writeable?(reset: true), RedmineGitHosting::Config.gitolite_admin_dir)
   8:
   9:   %tr
   10:     %td= l(:label_redmine_user)

from git_hosting.log I got this log

Hi! I think you have 2 bugs here :

The first one is a permission issue :
ActionView::Template::Error (Permission denied @ rb_sysopen - /opt/redmine/redmine/log/git_hosting.log):

The second one :
Can't retrieve Gitolite param : Non-zero exit code pid 62464 exit 127 for `sudo -n -u git -i gitolite query-rc GL_BINDIR is fixed by #646

By the way you should not run Redmine with the root user :
Testing if Redmine user 'root' can sudo to Gitolite user 'git'...
