  • 0

Does anyone know of a tutorial for using TeamCity with github with ssh private keys. I have tried to set up git hub to connect and I either get a authentication error or get access denied. I am running TeamCity on Windows 2003. I am running the build agent as a custom account. I am running the web server under the administrator account. I have create a key for the custom account and administrator account. I now get an error that:

The connection test failed: com.jcraft.jsch.JSchException: java.io.FileNotFoundException: C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator.ssh (Access is denied)

If anyone has successfully set this up please help. I am going on 3 hours into this and want to get it solved.

Thanks.

    The following VCS Root configuration works for me:

    • Clone URL: git@github.com:username/repository.git
    • Clone repository to: C:\somepath
    • User Name Style: UserId (jsmith)
    • Authentication Method: Private Key
    • Private Key Path: C:\SSH\myKeyFile.priv
    • Passphrase: only if key file is secured with a passphrase
