Server refused to allocate pty
Server refused to start a shell/command
Cygwin (xp) and Linux (Suse xterm):
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0

Title: Server refused to allocate pty » Not able to login with Console: Server refused to allocate pty

Hi to all I am not able to submit my module because I am not able to login.

Isn't there anybody who is able to assist me with that error?

The first steps for contributing a module are at http://drupal.org/node/1068950. They don't involve direct ssh access to git.drupal.org. Hopefully this will help.

What directions are you following? I can take a look at them and see where the disconnect is.

I followed:
http://drupal.org/node/1027094
installed my ssh key - it is working but the result is the same as with user/password authentication

So the sandbox project is created, but I am not able to login and upload the code.

Once you have created the sandbox project, you should see a tab called Version control. If you click it, you'll find the appropriate commands for getting set up. There are directions for using the Version control tab at http://drupal.org/node/1072822

Have you gone through these steps yet?

I am not able to get there,
because I am not able to login:
I am here when clikcing the version cotroll tab
:
This page gives the essential Git commands for working with this project's source files.
Empty Sandbox Repository
Setting up this repository for the first time:

You will be prompted to enter your Drupal.org password after the last step (and any time you make requests from Drupal.org) if you have not uploaded an SSH key or if your SSH key fails. See Authenticate with Git on Drupal.org for details.

mkdir uc_legal_aspects

cd uc_legal_aspects

git init

echo "name = UC Legal Aspects" > uc_legal_aspects.info

git add uc_legal_aspects.info

git commit -m "Initial commit."

git remote add origin etron770@git.drupal.org:sandbox/etron770/1400968.git

git push origin master

To share code on Drupal.org, you must follow the steps that you've pasted above.

That will put just the single uc_legal_aspects.info file in your sandbox. When you've succeeded at that, and the initialized repository exists, there will be a whole new set of directions to help you.

Once you've followed the above directions, I will be glad to lend a further hand.

Those directions, by the way, you don't run them on drupal.org. You run them on your local machine. Maybe that's the confusion. To run them, you'll need to install Git for your platform: http://drupal.org/node/1010894
