Problem

When pushing to Bitbucket Server, it responds with the output below:

git push -u
...
remote: Can't locate strict.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /u sr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl / usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at /usr/lib64/perl5/IO/Handle.pm line 261.

To ssh://bitbucketremote/repo/repo1.git
! [remote rejected] mark-test -> mark-test (pre-receive hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 'ssh://git@bitbucketremote/repo/repo1.git'

A corruption error can also be shown in the logs:

git push -u
... 
remote: aborting due to possible repository corruption on the remote side.
fatal: early EOF
fatal: fetch-pack: invalid index-pack output

Cause

This error can be caused by various reasons such as:

  1. The Perl version installed in the server is not Supported;
  2. Corrupted Perl Libraries.

Resolution

  •  Try to re-install Perl in the attempt to resolve this.

  •  If the issue still occurs, try to remove all git version on the server and re-install Git or at least Perl.
