Permission denied (publickey) (sourcetree mac)

Pushing to git@bitbucket.org:(my repo).git

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.

I suddenly started getting this, if I try to change everything thing back to default and try again, I get "device not configured".

This suddenly started happening after upgrading to High Sierra

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.

It appears this isn't the solution, there's a bug in the latest version of sourcetree.

Downgrading to the previous stable build fixed everything.

@hawkun can you tell which version does work for you?

[hawkun]

2.7

[Manju]

Could you please confirm what version you used earlier and what was the result of running those commands on your machine?

[Anatoliy Podkladov]

It helps me.
Thx a lot.

Thanks, this worked for me:

ssh-add ~/.ssh/_PATH_TO_SOURCETREE_KEY_

[Andrey Streltsov]

What I did just yesterday to fix this problem:

1. Create "config" file in ~/.ssh

2. Put in this config:

Host = *
   UseKeychain yes
   AddKeysToAgent yes
   IdentifyFile path/to/your/private/key
   IdentityFile path/to/your/another/private/key

After that authentication goes smoothly(with help of "ssh-add -K identity"). This seems to be a change related to macOS update: required for Sierra or High Sierra.

IdentityFile, not IdentifyFile

Using this on Mojave fixed my problem. I thought those identities got added automatically but I guess that's wrong. Thanks for the suggestion!
