Question

I am attempting to clone a repository using an access token stored in my .hgrc. I have enabled the kilnauth extension. When I clone as a regular user it works fine, but when running 'hg clone' as root I get:

    # hg clone https://clone.url
    Cookie file /root/.hgcookies/d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e exists, but could not be opened.
    Continuing without cookie authentication.
    http authorization required
    realm: kiln
    user: 

If I enter my access token at the user prompt it works fine, but that's what I'm trying to avoid.

Answer 1

As a workaround, note that entering the access token at the user prompt once sets up persistent cookies so that it doesn't need to be entered every time.
