How to create an application from the same git repo used for another application after the old application is deleted?

[Ashima2]

Hello all,

I am new to service now. I created an app by importing from my github account. Then I deleted it and started creating another app using the same details. However I am getting the error "Another application is already associated with the specified repository configuration".

Can someone please help me. 

Thank you.

So if you created an app in your instance by importing it from git, then deleted it in your instance and created a new app. That new app will need to be committed to a new git repo, you won't be able to use the old one.

I did this and none of my application files are being committed.

Resolution
1. Delete the old config record in "sys_repo_config" table for the application.

2. Open the application in Studio.

3. Navigate to Source Control > Link to Source Control.

4. Enter the proper config/credentials to link to the repository and click Submit.
