Question

When attempting to push changes to bitbucket.org I receive an error “abort: authorization failed”. I have configured my ~//.hgrc file to the following

[web]
cacerts = /etc/hg-ca-roots.pem
allow_push = *
push_ssl = false

I know my login credential are correct because they work perfectly on bitbucket.org. I am able to pull content just fine and can even use the $ hg outgoing command with no problems. What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

If it’s not a private repo you’d be able to pull and do outgoing without authenticating, so it’s still possible your credentials are wrong. Try using --debug next time.
