Access Error

Question

Good day,

I've checked the SSH key in BitBucket, re-added it, and I'm still getting this error:

git -c diff.mnemonicprefix=false -c core.quotepath=false -c credential.helper=sourcetree fetch origin

git@bitbucket.org: Permission denied (publickey).

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights

and the repository exists.

and the repository exists.

Completed with errors, see above

I am not sure what to do...

Please help,

Kevin

Thank you Manjunath.

It doesn't like my SSH key, strange. This is the error message it pumps out:

MacBook-Pro:.ssh me$ ssh-add ~/.ssh/My-Bitbucket.pub

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

Permissions 0644 for '/Users/##/.ssh/My-Bitbucket.pub' are too open.

It is required that your private key files are NOT accessible by others.

This private key will be ignored.

I'm guessing you are using a Mac.

Please check if the ssh-agent has your keys loaded. If not, please add them to the agent.

Run below commands in terminal to do so,

To check if keys are loaded:

ssh-add -l

To add keys to agent:

ssh-add <path_to_key>

more like,

ssh-add ~/.ssh/id_rsa

Key in the passphrase used while generating the ssh key and you should be good to go.
