Hi, @ali sakr alaraby,

Could you please confirm if the credentials you provide are for the sudo or the git command?

Also, could you check which protocol you are using on Git operations, SSH or HTTPS? You can verify that by running the following command in the directory where data is being pulled (cd /var/www/gcs-backend && sudo git remote -v):

git remote -v

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Kind regards, 
Caroline

Hi, @Caroline R ,

thank you again for getting back at me with some hints.

now after some further investigation and playing around with the COMMAND part i found out that all commands run well except for 'sudo git pull origin stage', seems like git commands are the ones that don`t work.

i provide the $SSH_USER and $SERVER variables and i`m sure they`re correct, also i`m using the ssh key pairs correct, i generated them from the bitbucket ssh_keys settings page and i added the public key to the server`s authorized_keys as in the document i was following.

using this command  'sudo git pull origin stage' on the server of course asks for my credentials, i provide it when asked then it continues fine.

so do you have any recommendations for me of what could i be missing?

and thank you so much again.

Hi, @ali sakr alaraby!

Thanks for the additional information. I can see you are using a very old version of Pipe (0.2.3), so could you please:

* Update the Pipe version to 0.4.0 and check with that; 
* Check with a simple command - echo test.

Please let me know how it goes and feel free to add any additional information here.

Thank you.

Kind regards,
Caroline
