This issue has been shortly discussed with Ryan some days ago, but we could not fix it. The consequence is, that I cannot make use of the instance "openid-wiki" for testing _and_ submission to gerrit. Please assist. git review -s ============= Could not connect to gerrit.

You've got your own Gerrit setup and running, but you're still connecting to gerrit.wikimedia.org...?
(In reply to comment #1) > You've got your own Gerrit setup and running, but you're still connecting to > gerrit.wikimedia.org...? Krenair, I was wrong. I setup (on the instance) git review (not: gerrit) https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Git/Tutorial#Setting_up_git-review and this does not work. - git review -s -> Could not connect to gerrit.
pls. can someone assist, I am now on irc://irc.freenode.net/#wikimedia-labs
IIRC git-review checks .gitreview for how to access Gerrit. Does a .gitreview file exist in your checkout, and if so what's its content?
This is not an issue with Git or Gerrit really, but rather Labs. Due to the way labs is setup, you are unable to SSH from Labs to the production cluster (this includes Gerrit). Simply put: you cannot use Gerrit over SSH from Labs. As a result, git-review isn't going to be very useful at all. However, if you want to still do operations with Gerrit over HTTPS, you can do that. If you visit your HTTP Password panel in your preferences[0], you can generate a randomized password (and clear it/regenerate a fresh one). With this password, you can perform all of the write operations over https://. For example: `git push https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/p/mediawiki/core HEAD:refs/for/master`, which would prompt you for your username/password. So yeah, I'm marking this WONTFIX, since we're not going to open up SSH from labs to gerrit. However, I believe a viable workaround exists with HTTPS (and really, this is the default behavior for most sites that don't even enable SSH to Gerrit or use git-review).

Chad, Krenair: thank you danke merci bedankt. Your explanations are convincing, and the essentials of your replies should be documented on the labsconsole info page. If I have time, I will do that, (or perhaps you experts find the time).
(In reply to comment #6) I stand corrected.
