Gitlab Push Failed error

Question

I keep getting this error when I try to push anything to my own gitlab server:

Push failed
Failed with error:
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly
error: RPC failed;
curl 56 Recv failure: Connection was reset

I have no idea why I keep getting this error. I kept trying to push and then out of nowhere it pushed it successfully. But everything I tried to push after that just gave me the same error.

Here is a more detailed log:

16:21:39.932: [gallery] git -c core.quotepath=false push --progress --porcelain origin refs/heads/master:master

Solution

Please try one of these methods below:

Method 1:

git config --global http.postBuffer 157286400

Method 2:
Increase "client_max_body_size" of your Nginx configuration in your Gitlab server.

i have also the same problem. to solve this issue i am doing following things: git reset --hard HEAD~1 after that. i am adding my project files into the same folder again because everything has reverted into previous stage. so then executing following commands. git add * - git commit -m 'again' - git push. then it pushes successfully.

I had a slightly different error but this also solved it: error: RPC failed; curl 55 TCP connection reset by peer
