fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Francesco Savino_pgiuxx

I have followed all steps to create remote repo ,Created SSH keys pair, and also been succed to clone repo locally .To day after , now , created some folders and done staging +commit .

Now I cant be able to push :

$ git push origin master
Enter passphrase for key '/home/devuser/.ssh/bitbucket':
Unauthorized
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

 

I inserted also in .ssh/config file  :

Host bitbucket.org

AddKeysToAgent yes

IdentityFile ~/.ssh/{ssh-key-name}

 

It's is strange because all git read operations works and test work fine

$ ssh -T git@bitbucket.org
Enter passphrase for key '/home/devuser/.ssh/bitbucket':
authenticated via ssh key.

You can use git to connect to Bitbucket. Shell access is disabled

 

Then where is the problem ?  please , help

Hello @Francesco Savino ,

Welcome to Atlassian Community! 

As you mentioned that read operations (clone, pull) work and the issue happens only with write operations (push), I suspect you might have added the SSH key as an Access key.

SSH keys added as Repository or project access keys provide just read access to repositories. So you will be able to only clone and pull using a repo/project access key. The only access key that provides read and write access are Workspace Access keys (see Difference between repository, project and Workspace access keys ).

If you want the key to have the same access to repositories as your user account does, then you need to add the key to your user profile by going to Your avatar in the top right > Personal Settings > SSH keys. 

It's important to note that you cannot use the same key both as access keys and personal keys.

With that in mind, could you please confirm if the key you are using was added as an access key at the repo or project level? If yes, you can then try either adding it as a personal key or as a workspace access key.

Thank you, @Francesco Savino !
