Error generating password due to missing uuid

Patric Corletto

Hi!

I'm on a Macbook running 10.13.1 High Sierra and newest Source Tree Version 2.7.

 

For a couple of weeks (on an older Source tree version) it suddenly started to ask me for my password twice every time I wanted to pull or push. At some point I couldn't stand it anymore and I decided to update SourceTree in the hope it would fix it.

 

Now that I updated nothing works anymore, I can't pull or push. I saw lots of people experiencing the same issue even 2-3 years ago. I tried re-installing, or clearing the cache but nothing seems to fix it. 

This is the error message i get now:

git-credential-sourcetree[30381:15121586] Error generating password due to missing uuid. Please report this to Atlassian.

 

What can I do ?

Thanks..

I recommend you to clean re install (including removing Sourcetree's app support folder at ~/Library/Application Support/SourceTree and removing old keychain items written by Sourcetree). You will end up loosing your setting (bookmarks). But, that should get everything else working. 

Make sure you add the account in preference and use the same protocol as the remote URL fo the repo cloned (ssh/https). 

Thanks!
