Unable to browse Public repo

[Dejan Tolj]

Hi
I have set all permissions to 777 in the project directory and in the
.git directory but still get the same error message.
I am using cgit v.0.9

I have played around with the cgitrc file, for repo.path tried:
repo.path=/root/projects/proj/.git
repo.path=/root/projects/proj/proj.git

repo.url=proj1
repo.path=/root/projects/proj/.git
repo.desc=the master foo repository
repo.owner=dtolj at example.com
repo.readme=info/web/about.html
