error: src refspec main does not match any

$ git push -u origin main
error: src refspec main does not match any
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://gitlab.com/jay2tinku/my-new-project.git'

If you get such error while performing any git operation. This means you have to check your default branch name. From last few git versions by default branch name is main instead of master. It never means that it will always be main/master. Normally at the time of installation we have to configure that but most of the time we ignore that and go with default options.

Simple fix of this error is :-
git push -u origin master
or
git push -u origin main

Please have a look on below scenario for complete understanding
$ mkdir my-new-project
$ cd my-new-project
$ git status
$ git init
$ cat > test.txt
My first line!!!

$ git status
$ git remote add origin https://gitlab.com/jay2tinku/my-test-project.git
$ git add .
$ git status
$ git commit . -m "Intial push commit"
$ git push -u origin main
error: src refspec main does not match any
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://gitlab.com/jay2tinku/my-new-project.git'

$ git push -u origin master

Failed to get D-Bus connection: Operation not permitted

" Failed to get D-Bus connection: Operation not permitted " - systemctl command is not working in Docker container. If systemctl command is not working in your container and giving subjected error message then simple solution of this error is, create container with -- privileged option and also provide init file full path  /usr/sbin/init [root@server109 ~]# docker container run -dit --privileged --name systemctl_not_working_centos1 centos:7 /usr/sbin/init For detailed explanation and understanding I am writing more about it, please have look below. If we have a daemon based program(httpd, sshd, jenkins, docker etc.) running inside a container and we would like to start/stop or check status of daemon inside docker then it becomes difficult for us to perform such operations , because by default systemctl and service  commands don't work inside docker. Normally we run below commands to check services status in Linux systems. [root@server109 ~]# systemctl status ...

AWS cloud automation using Terraform

In this post I'll create multiple resources in AWS cloud using Terraform . Terraform is an infrastructure as code( IAC ) software which can do lots of things but it is superb in cloud automation. To use Terraform we have write code in a high-level configuration language known as Hashicorp Configuration Language , optionally we can write code in JSON as well. I'll create below service using Terraform- 1. Create the key-pair and security group which allow inbound traffic on port 80 and 22 2. Launch EC2 instance. 3. To create EC2 instance use same key and security group which created in step 1 4. Launch Volume(EBS) and mount this volume into /var/www/html directory 5. Upload index.php file and an image on GitHub repository 6. Clone GitHub repository into /var/www/html 7. Create S3 bucket, copy images from GitHub repo into it and set permission to public readable 8 Create a CloudFront use S3 bucket(which contains images) and use the CloudFront URL to update code in /var/w...
