Upgraded from 1.17.3 to 1.21.4, saw no major changes in the changelog, and was able to restart and it loads up fine, but now the pre-receive hook is declined. ```auto remote: Gitea: Internal Server Error Decoding Failed To https:///my-group/Spack.git ! [remote rejected] main -> main (pre-receive hook declined) error: failed to push some refs to 'https:///my-group/Spack.git' ``` I have run ```auto /opt/gitea --config /local/gitea/custom/conf/app.ini admin regenerate hooks ``` and that has not fixed it. Log entry from attempting a push below: ```auto 2024/02/16 10:34:59 ...eb/routing/logger.go:102:func1() [I] router: completed GET /my-group/Spack.git/info/refs?service=git-receive-pack for :36536, 401 Unauthorized in 5.9ms @ repo/githttp.go:532(repo.GetInfoRefs) 2024/02/16 10:34:59 ...dules/git/command.go:290:Run() [D] git.Command.RunDir(/local/gitea/data/gitea-repositories/my-group/spack.git): /usr/bin/git -c protocol.version=2 -c credential.helper= -c filter.lfs.required= -c filter.lfs.smudge= -c filter.lfs.clean= receive-pack --stateless-rpc --advertise-refs . 2024/02/16 10:34:59 ...eb/routing/logger.go:102:func1() [I] router: completed GET /my-group/Spack.git/info/refs?service=git-receive-pack for :36536, 200 OK in 45.1ms @ repo/githttp.go:532(repo.GetInfoRefs) 2024/02/16 10:35:00 ...dules/git/command.go:290:Run() [D] git.Command.RunDir(/local/gitea/data/gitea-repositories/my-group/spack.git): /usr/bin/git -c protocol.version=2 -c credential.helper= -c filter.lfs.required= -c filter.lfs.smudge= -c filter.lfs.clean= receive-pack --stateless-rpc /local/gitea/data/gitea-repositories/my-group/spack.git 2024/02/16 10:35:00 ...eb/routing/logger.go:102:func1() [I] router: completed POST /My-Repo/Spack.git/git-receive-pack for :36536, 200 OK in 261.2ms @ repo/githttp.go:500(repo.ServiceReceivePack) ``` Surely I’m missing something simple? ---

The gitea user doesn’t have a home dir in our config, and shouldn’t actually need auth-keys. ---

Went digging through old bugs. Removed ```auto LOCAL_ROOT_URL = http://localhost:443/ ``` from config. restarted, tried again, worked? Is this intended?
