Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic) on openshift

Question

I am having issues with committing changes to my gear. I have tried to run rhc setup, I also deleted my .ssh folder and executed rhc setup again but that also didnt work.

Answer 1

please check if you have changed to another account.

i encountered this problem when my account changed to root.

I am using ubuntu.

I solved this problem by the following cmds

rm ~/.openshift/ -rf
rm ~/.ssh/* -rf
rhc setup

and i encountered the following error:

chmod: 更改".git/FETCH_HEAD" 的权限: 不允许的操作

solved by :

sudo chmod 777 .git/FETCH_HEAD

then:

git pull

got:

Already up-to-date.

everything goes find.

Answer 2

you have to check in ~/.ssh/ if exists a file id_rsa.pub and id_rsa if not you have to create it using openssh or if exists a file with extension .pub duplicate it and rename the copy as id_rsa.pub then do the same with id_rsa. this work with google compute engine. I've tried

Answer 3

I fixed the problem by setting up proxy for ssh: ~/.ssh/config

ProxyCommand /bin/connect.exe -H proxy:8080 %h %p

Host rhcloud.com
User myemailasrhclogin@gmail.com
Port 22
Hostname rhcloud.com
IdentityFile "C:\users\username\.ssh\id_rsa"
TCPKeepAlive yes
IdentitiesOnly yes

SSH in git behind proxy on windows 7

My initial mistake was to use appname.rhcloud.com as Host or Hostname. And yes, adding your public key to OpenShift is also necessary.

Answer 4

I had Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic)
when cloning with git clone ssh://<<repo_created_by_openshift>>.

App was created with Openshift's website, not with rhc app create.
My SSH key was ok, reimporting it to Openshift didn't help, nor did expiring sessions, and so on.
I didn't want to generate a new key.

What finally worked was using:
rhc git-clone -a <app_name>> instead of bare git clone <<repo_address>>.
You may have to expire sessions as well.

Answer 5

what worked for me was to generate the keys using Git Bash

ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "your_email@example.com"

and then add the key to ssh-agent as described here

Answer 6

Also make sure your ~/.ssh/id_rsa file has proper permissions required by rhc:

chmod 600 ~/.ssh/id_rsa
