Hello,

 

I’ve improved an existing Wireshark dissector. The code is ready for an upload to the Wireshark Gerrit-Server.

 

Due to that I used those two guides  ( http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/SubmittingPatches/GitForWindows and https://code.wireshark.org/review/Documentation/user-upload.html ) to create a SSH-Connection to upload my changes. I have already installed the tools successfully on my computer, as in the “GitForWindows” guide described. Furthermore my Gerrit account already has a linked SSH public key with my PC. The Last step in the “GitForWindows” guide is to check the connection with the server with “ssh –p 29418 yourGerritusername@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx”.

 

But right at this point a Problem appears. Right now I am not able to create an SSH-Connection, because it is not allowed. Therefore I’ve searched for another solution to create a different connection to the Gerrit-Server, but without any success.

 

My Question therefore is:

Is it possible to upload my changes to the Gerrit-Server without a SSH-Connection (HTTP / HTTPS) or is this connection type coercive necessary?

 

I'm not sure if HTTPS can be used, but you can add a "-v" argument onto the ssh command to get verbose output that might let you see where things have gone wrong.  Further -v arguments generates even more debug output.
