<h1><span class="header-section-number">3</span> Cannot see a repository?</h1>
<p>So often, you try to visit a repository, and find something like below:</p>
<div class="figure">
<img src="images/norepository.png" alt="404 page" />
<p class="caption">404 page</p>
</div>
<p>The solutions are:</p>
<ol style="list-style-type: decimal">
<li>Sign in to Gin</li>
<li>Check that the repository exists</li>
<li>Make sure you have access to the repository</li>
</ol>
<div id="sign-in-to-gin" class="section level2">
<h2><span class="header-section-number">3.1</span> Sign in to Gin</h2>
<p>It happens when you are not signed in to Gin.</p>
<p>Click on the “Sign in” button at the top-right corner of the page:</p>
<div class="figure">
<img src="images/signin.png" alt="Sign-in button" />
<p class="caption">Sign-in button</p>
</div>
<p>(If you have not yet got registered to Gin, then do it first from the “Register” button on the right.</p>
</div>
<div id="check-that-the-repository-exists" class="section level2">
<h2><span class="header-section-number">3.2</span> Check that the repository exists</h2>
<p>If the situation persists, go visit your <a href="Dashboard.md">dashboard</a>,
and find the name of the repository from the list.
If you click on it, the repository page should show up.</p>
</div>
<div id="make-sure-you-have-access-to-the-repository" class="section level2">
<h2><span class="header-section-number">3.3</span> Make sure you have access to the repository</h2>
<p>If you don’t find the repository in your dashboard, then
it is possible that you don’t have access to the repository at all.</p>
<p>Ask somebody who has access rights to the repository <a href="collaboration.md">for adding you as a Collaborator</a>.</p>
