The requested URL returned a 502 error, corporate?

Does anyone know what the problem seems to be with git

? I am getting this error when running git clone

to clone from team foundation server

(tfs).

 fatal: unable to access 'http://website.com/_git/project': The requested URL returned error: 502

The problem isn't git. Rather, the site is giving you a 502 error, which is a Bad Gateway error. Following are some of the reasons and how to fix 502:

Also, make sure you clone the git repository.

I faced the same problem. For some reason, http and Https proxies are configured in my git config list. Removing those allowed me to clone successfully.

It took me a long time to find and fix this annoying problem.

In my case, the environment variables http_proxy and https_proxy were set on my computer . (You can find them in Control Panel - System and Security - Advanced System Settings - Env Variables - Bottom Pane of System Variables Section in Windows 10)

Once I removed those 2 environment variables (highlight - delete - ok), closed the Git-Terminal window and reopened it, the (http 502) problem went away. Just to confirm that I tested with Git GUI + VS Code + Git Term. Did git fetch / clone / push / etc ...

Note : I am in a corporate environment behind a strict proxy, but so is the Enterprise tfs url so I don't need a proxy meddling between me and my tfs server. I suspect (cannot confirm or rule out) that the proxy was playing MITM. The client computer is the latest build of Windows 10 running git version 2.22.0.windows.1

For reference: in a corporate environment behind an authenticated proxy, I previously edited the global git config to override for the proxy. Once I fixed this, I was able to connect.

Useful command:

git config --global --list


[filter "lfs"]
        clean = git-lfs clean -- %f
        smudge = git-lfs smudge -- %f
        process = git-lfs filter-process
        required = true
[user]
        name = GuyWicks
[user]
        email = guy.wicks@iworkhere.com
[http]
    proxy = http://public-cache:8080

[https]
    proxy = http://public-cache:8080

I have commented out the four lines of the proxy (#)
