git push >> fatal: no configured push destination
Solution 1
The command (or the URL in it) to add the github repository as a remote isn't quite correct. If I understand your repository name correctly, it should be;
git remote add demo_app '[email protected]:levelone/demo_app.git'
Solution 2
You are referring to the section "2.3.5 Deploying the demo app" of this "Ruby on Rails Tutorial ":
In section 2.3.1 Planning the application, note that they did:
$ git remote add origin [email protected]:<username>/demo_app.git
$ git push -u origin master
That is why a simple git push
worked (using here an ssh address).
Did you follow that step and made that first push?
www.github.com/levelone/demo_app
That would not be a writable URI for pushing to a GitHub repo.
https://[email protected]/levelone/demo_app.git
This should be more appropriate.
Check what git remote -v
returns, and if you need to replace the remote address, as described in GitHub help page, use git remote --set-url
.
git remote set-url origin https://[email protected]/levelone/demo_app.git
# or
git remote set-url origin [email protected]:levelone/demo_app.git
Solution 3
I have faced this error, Previous I had push in root directory, and now I have push another directory, so I could be remove this error and run below commands.
git add .
git commit -m "some comments"
git push --set-upstream origin master

I'm still going through some guides on RoR and I'm stuck here at Deploying The Demo App
I followed instructions:
With the completion of the Microposts resource, now is a good time to push the repository up to GitHub:
$ git add . $ git commit -a -m "Done with the demo app" $ git push
What happened wrong here was the push part.. it outputted this:
$ git push fatal: No configured push destination. Either specify the URL from the command-line or configure a remote repository using git remote add <name> <url> git push <name>
So I tried following the instructions by doing this command:
$ git remote add demo_app 'www.github.com/levelone/demo_app' fatal: remote demo_app already exists.
So I push:
$ git push demo_app fatal: 'www.github.com/levelone/demo_app' does not appear to be a git repository fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
What can I do here? Any help would be much appreciated.

levelone about 12 yearsIt works! @VonC but unfortunately I'm stuck right after I push once again... After using:
git push demo_app
it outputs a Password Authentication, and after successfully logging in it displays:No refs in common and none specified; doing nothing; perhaps you should specify a branch such as 'master'. Everything-up-to-date
i don't get it.. -
VonC about 12 years@Marc if it asks for a password, then you must have missed a configuration allowing you to authenticate to GitHub as the rightful owner of demo_app. See for instance (with an https remote GitHub address) stackoverflow.com/questions/7129232/… or (more complete) stackoverflow.com/questions/5377703/syncing-with-github/…

levelone about 12 yearsthe first link didn't change the output of my push.. i'm curious on how to set my < login_internet >, < password_internet >, @ aproxy, aport ... i'm kinda lost :( sorry about that. hope i'm not bugging you for your help..
-
VonC about 12 years@Marc: you only need to setup that if you do access internet through a proxy.
-
levelone about 12 yearsoh ok.. i access the net through our wifi here at home. i hope that helps? so yea when i push
$ git push
it displays this texterror: error setting certificate verify locations: CA file: \bin\curl-ca-bundle.crt CApath: none while accessing https:\\[email protected]/levelone/demo_app.git/info/refs fatal:HTTPS request failed
do i need my rails server on while i push it? or i do have to set up my proxy? -
levelone about 12 yearsand i tried cloning it.. and destination path 'demo app' already exists and is not an empty directory.
-
VonC about 12 years@Marc check your global git config to set the CA file path appropriately: stackoverflow.com/a/3778244/6309. And when you clone, always do it by specifying a root directory which doesn't exist yet.

levelone about 12 yearsi found another solution.. i just redid the entire demo_app from scratch. and everything went smoothly in 10mins :P haha thanks for your help @VonC :)

VonC over 9 years@Suraj that should be a separate question in its own, not a comment burried under a three-years old answer.
-
Suraj over 9 yearsSorry about that.. I saw your last active was just 10 minutes back and hence the comment.
-
VonC over 9 years@Suraj sure, I am always there (meta.stackexchange.com/questions/122976/…), but your question deserves more visibility: make one, for others (than just me) to answer to.
