Failed to connect to repository : Command "git ls-remote -h -- git@github.com:neetesshhr/sheildxwebpage.git HEAD" returned status code 128:
stdout:
stderr: No ED25519 host key is known for github.com and you have requested strict checking.
Host key verification failed.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

i tried to follow this link

But not working at all how to fix this issue?

Solution

  • The actual error message is "Host key verification failed", which means you need to add the remote server host key fingerprint to Jenkins.

    In case of GitHub, you will find said fingerprint at githubs-ssh-key-fingerprints, as I mentioned here.
