Yocto R12 Build failure

IoT Modules WP Series

I am trying to rebuild R12 of Yocto. This compiled before, but it was before Sierra had the network issue. Now I’m getting this error Message from do_fetch:

ERROR: android-signing-native-1.0-r1 do_fetch: Fetcher failure: Fetch command export DBUS_SESSION_BUS_ADDRESS=“unix:abstract=/tmp/dbus-j7MFnGQaZP”; export SSH_AUTH_SOCK="/run/user/1000/keyring/ssh"; export PATH="/Rev12/poky/bitbake/bin:/usr/local/bin:/bin:/usr/bin"; export HOME="/home/me"; git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 ls-remote git://github.com/braddu/android-signing.git failed with exit code 128, output:

The weird thing is the IP address shown is a non-public IP. I don’t know where it’s coming from, but I certainly don’t have that local IP address range here.

do you find problem to build yocto image of R13.3 or R16 for WP76 module?

What do you see for “ping github.com”

I am using R12, as R13 is not released for WP7601. I have tried several times to build R16, without success, but we would have to recertify if we change and since WP7601 is EOL, we are not going to update this firmware, so we need to stay with R12.
I have made the COMPAT_BYTE change in R12, that is why I am rebuilding, but getting this error shown above. Is there a way to get around this error?
I can ping gethub.com just fine, and it does show that IP, it just times out when it tries to execute this git command:
git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 ls-remote git://github.com/braddu/android-signing.git

Compiling r13.3 or r16 is just to test your build environment as i don’t see problem to build r13.3 or r16 on ubuntu 16

OK. I will try that.

git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 ls-remote git://github.com/braddu/android-signing.git

You also can’t go to the components of R12 and download Yocto. You get a “Not Found” message for the link:
https://downloads.sierrawireless.com/_upload/wp76/Release12.0.1/v2/%20Legato-Dist-Source-mdm9x28-SWI9X07Y_02.25.04.01.tar.bz2, (not found)

how about this link? (without the “%20”)

https://downloads.sierrawireless.com/_upload/wp76/Release12.0.1/v2/Legato-Dist-Source-mdm9x28-SWI9X07Y_02.25.04.01.tar.bz2

Just found that the link for downloading R12.0.1 yocto source is corrected:

https://source.sierrawireless.com/resources/airprime/software/wp76xx/wp76xx-firmware-release-12,-d-,0,-d-,1-components/#sthash.1P3SyRNi.kyGGCU2I.dpbs

@jyijyi, So, I tried to build R13. I get the same error. Github times out.
git -c core.fsyncobjectfiles=0 ls-remote git://github.com/braddu/android-signing.git, has the same Error.
And I can still ping github.

how about this?

git config --global url.“https://github.com/”.insteadOf git://github.com/

Yes, that works. However, if I change the source value to use https:, do_fetch errors out and says it must be “git”.
However, at the end of the line it says protocol=git, which I changed to protocol=https and that works.
