GIT repo connection failed in cPanel


I am having issue connecting git repo to cpanel. I have added SSH keys to cPanel from git correctly. Sometime repo are connecting and sometime i am getting following issue Error: “/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/git” reported error code “128” when it ended: fatal: could not read Password for 'https://......@bitbucket.org': No such device or address

enter image description here

Thank you in advance


Solution

  • I have added SSH keys to cPanel

    Then you should use an SSH URL (git@server:user/repo), not an HTTPS one (which starts with https://...)

    See "Guide to Git - Set Up Access to Private Repositories" from the CPanel Knowledge Base.

    git clone git@example.com:MyStuff/private-repository.git
    

    You can see here a typical BitBucket SSH URL:

    git@bitbucket.org:<account_name>/<repo_name>.git
    # or
    ssh://git@bitbucket.org/<account_name>/<repo_name>.git
    

    Note: the username for a BitBucket repo is always git.
