Can't access repositories with Git over SSH

[csu]

I added an ssh key: 2015/05/25 02:31:23 [T] SSH key added: csu

I am using a non-standard port for ssh. When I try using ssh, I get:

csu:import (master)$ ssh -p nnnnn git@xyz
PTY allocation request failed on channel 0
Hi csu ! You've successfully authenticated, but Gogs does not provide shell access.
If this is unexpected, please log in with password and setup Gogs under another user.
Connection to xyz closed.

From the above output, it appears that the SSH connection over the port works and that authentication succeeded. However, this happens when I try using Git over SSH:

csu:import (master)$ setgip
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

You can't connect through SSH to the Gogs user.

[csu]

Then how do you use Git over SSH?

Git over SSH is a total different thing. You just can't connect a normal SSH session.

[csu]

That's not what the issue is about. The issue is saying that connection to normal SSH works, but when trying to use Git over SSH on the same port, it fails.

Seems to be the same problem as #1306 — in fact, your error message says already:

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

The tl;dr: you need to have your SSH key in your gogs account, not on the system's authorized_keys.

[csu]

It's in both. It's added through the gogs account, which then appends it to the gogs user's authorized_keys automatically.

Then I can't help you, sorry 😦

Ah, in fact the message does say Permission denied (publickey). I missed that the first time.

This is probably obvious, so I hope you're not offended, but you're using the git url provided by the gogs UI, right?

And does that url provide your non-standard port? It could be that gogs only provides scp-style addresses, which don't allow a port. If that's the case, it's a bug. With a non-standard port, it should look like ssh://git@host.xz:xxxx/path/to/repo.git/. If this is the problem, you can work around it by of course tweaking the URL by hand, or by putting an alias in you ssh config.

I'm using the one from Gogs. From what I recall, it did include the non-standard port in the url. Anyways, I've since given up on getting it to run on my own machine and have just installed it on a cloud VPS. Working perfectly on that :)

Looks this thread is finished?

Just a note before closing:

Permission denied (publickey).

This error shows that your request is denied by the SSH server, the Git request does not even get to Gogs. 😂

FWIW

Sounds like it was something in your system (global) sshd config 😸
