Hi,
I have the same issue with private repository. Hope someone can provide
a pointer.
git version 1.7.9.5
jenkins -- 1.500
Jenkins GIT plug --
1.1.26<http://ec2-50-18-85-116.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:9090/pluginManager/plugin/git/thirdPartyLicenses>
GitHub plugin -- not available from the "available plugins" . This is
available from the previous version of Jenkins (1.499)
ubuntu on AMS EC2 instance
I have setup the ssh keys with the proper login name (email) to the git
hub. And put the public ssh key to the github SSHKey.
Tested the
ssh -T [email protected]
works and authenticated.
in Jenkins, I selected the git as repository and put the github's HTTPS
URL.
With public repository, there is no problem; but with private
repository, I got the following error message:
Failed to connect to repository : Command "git ls-remote -h
https://github.com/xxxx/test.git HEAD" returned status code 128:
stdout:
stderr: fatal: Authentication failed
I tried to the same command on the command line,
git ls-remote -h https://github.com/xxxx/test.git
the command prompt me for the login and password, once I provides the
both, the commend returns me the refs results.
I can also git clone the above project from command line.
It looks to me that the Jenkins is complaining about the login and
password prompt.
I googled around and found one way to work around the issue is to
ssh-agent and use ssh-add to result this. but this requires start the
ssh-agent ....
is this the only way to do this, for sure I am not the first one to
connect the jenkins to github's private repository. Please help.
thanks
Chester
