Gitlab can't clone repository even though ssh works

Question

As the title states, I can\'t clone a repository from a Gitlab 6 server even though the ssh seems to work.

When trying to clone, it looks like this:

git          


        

Answer 1

Try the scp-like syntax:

git clone ssh://git@domain.de:1337:project/repository.git

That forces the use of ~/.ssh/config actually, which means the url can be simplified to gitlab:project/repositoriy.git.

But it turned out to be an ssh key issue in the gitlab server ~gitlab/.ssh/authorized_keys (a bit like in issue 4730).
The OP Gelix confirms in the comments:

I removed my key from Gitlab, manually from authorized_keys, readded it on Gitlab. Everything fine now.
Message with SSH Test is now also Welcome to GitLab, Felix *****!

(instead of Welcome to GitLab, Anonymous!)
