Symptoms
When accessing a repository, the Git clone URL (default URL) should use the Bitbucket Server URL (example: http://localhost:7990):
1
git clone http://USER@127.0.0.1:7990/git/PROJECT/REPOSITORY.gitThis is not the case when Bitbucket Server is behind a proxy.
Cause
The proxy is translating the URL to a local URL, so Bitbucket Server uses that address to show the clone URL.
Resolution
Bitbucket Server 5.0+
Configure the appropriate proxy settings (proxy-name, proxy-port, etc) in bitbucket.properties as mentioned in Proxy and secure Bitbucket.
Bitbucket Server 4.x
Update the connector settings in
$BITBUCKET_HOME/shared/server.xml
file to reflect the proxy settings from:
