GHE + private repo: Receiving EOF exception for status and comment

[rngtng]

I want to setup atlantis for a private repo on a GitHub Enterprise instance. I managed to run atlantis server 0.4.3 using the docker image and configured as described. The server receives the webhooks successfully and is able to clone the repo. BUT, it somehow is not able to report back on the PR via status or comments. The error message just says EOF like:

2018/07/24 11:45:17 middleware.go:40: [INFO] server: 200 | POST /events
2018/07/24 11:45:17 command_runner.go:88: [WARN] org/repo#72: Unable to update commit status: Post https://github.onpremise.de/api/v3/repos/org/repo/statuses/34b200b5bf6be8bfdedd342c214a0ffeece89750: EOF

Andy clue what this could be??? Thanks!

Hmm, what if you make the call directly?

curl -u username:token --data '{"state":"success", "description":"description", "context":"context"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json"  https://github.onpremise.de/api/v3/repos/org/repo/statuses/34b200b5bf6be8bfdedd342c214a0ffeece89750

this works. I tried it for comments:

curl -u $ATLANTIS_GH_USER:$ATLANTIS_GH_TOKEN --data '{"body":"blabla"}' -H "Content-Type: application/json"  https://$ATLANTIS_GH_HOSTNAME/api/v3/repos/org/repo/issues/72/comments

[lkysow]

Okay and are you running that from inside the Atlantis docker container?

[rngtng]

yes...

I see server reacting on comments, cloneing the repo but fails when using the gh api for comments or statuses, always EOF. I checked gh client repo for EOF issues, but couldn't spot anything helpful: https://github.com/google/go-github/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=EOF

Mind coming on our slack channel and I can help you debug further? https://thawing-headland-22460.herokuapp.com/

@lkysow figured out it's related to my extra /etc/hosts entry for ghe which is not respected by the go gh client by default. Solution is described here: golang/go#22846 (comment)

Run echo "hosts: files dns" > /etc/nsswitch.conf to fix it.
