It's an authentication problem. It will only work if the account running Jenkins has SSH key access to the Git host. So essentially, before this will work, you should be able to do something like: # on jenkins server sudo su jenkins # become the user which runs the jenkins process ssh git@<repo url> # connection successful, no prompt for password Does that work?
