Bamboo: Error checking out Git

[codelab expert]

I get this error when I want to checkout using git 1.9.4

com.atlassian.bamboo.repository.RepositoryException : java.lang.RuntimeException: com.atlassian.bamboo.plugins.stash.repository.StashRepositoryException: com.atlassian.bamboo.plugins.git.GitCommandException: command 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Git\git.exe' version failed with code -1. Working directory was [\]., stderr: )

What it is going wrong? Thank you!

Any answer to the original post? I am also running into issue like this.

Hello Mathias,

1. Can you please check if you can successfully check out from the command line with the same user that is running the Bamboo process?
2. If running Bamboo as a Windows service, please make sure you are running the service as a local admin account: Running Bamboo Service as a Local Admin
3. Did you add a path to your Git executable under server capabilities in Bamboo: Defining a new version control capability
   
   Hope this helps!
   If the issue persists, please open a support ticket and attach your log files from under <bamboo-home>/logs directory.
   
   Thanks!
   Best,
