Question

everybody,

I have some problem related to the jenkins and git. I created a new user in local server and created a empty git repo. I used jenkins in the other machine to poll the changes in the local server and track changes. I have added the ssh authorized key in the local server for connecting the server directly and in the computer using jenkins, I have a config file to access the identity through the server. But I always get this error, I am not sure what the problem is.

Can anyone help me with this.

Answer 1

Make sure the keys are setup for the user jenkins is running under. Try doing a clone from the box, as jenkins users and try. See if plain ssh is happening. Use -v ( verbose) output to see what is happening.
