SSH 关键问题 Git-CPanel - 权限被拒绝（公钥）。 致命：无法从远程存储库中读取

Question

I'm trying to clone my git repository on cpanel via bluehost, to deploy my website, however, I continue to get the follow error:

Error: (XID za7xwb) “/usr/local/cpanel/3rdparty/bin/git” reported error code “128” when it ended: Permission denied (publickey). fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

I first generated ssh keys via Gitbash. Following Githubs docs -- https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent

After such, I went to github - settings -- ssh - and added the respective key.

Next, I went to bluehost - cpanel -- add ssh keys -- and added both public and private keys and authorized them.

Next. via the cpanel on bluehost I used -- git@github.com:JAVandenberg/DeltaDesigns.git -- to clone the private repository. However, I am continued to be met with the same error.

Next I did this

Warning: Permanently added the RSA host key for IP address '140.82.121.4' to the list of known hosts.
Hi JAVandenberg! You've successfully authenticated, but GitHub does not provide shell access.

While this doesn't provide shell access, authorizing the same ssh keys used on cpanel should have given it access I would image?

I also tried this to debug following -- https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/error-permission-denied-publickey -- but with no avail

And it shows it has been authorized.

It feels like there is something I'm missing but I can't quite figure it out.

I also, tried adding a deploy key, but then it says the key is already in use -- I'm a little unsure of how the ssh keys work between the repository (deploy key) -- github ssh key -- and the cpanel. What's the line of communication like?

Any help would be great!

Thanks:)

Answer 1

Added both public and private keys and authorized them.

Wait... only the public key is supposed to be added around, not the private key, which is supposed to remain, err... private .

The SSH Access on Bluehost cPanel differs from the SSH access to a GitHub repository.

Try on cPanel, just before git clone, an export GIT_SSH_COMMAND='ssh -v' : you will see what keys are tried. The private key ~/.ssh/id_rsa in that cPanel session should be the one whose public key you have registered on GitHub side.

As noted in the conversion by the OP :

I was working with tech support on blue host- and apparently what I'm doing, since it requires root access -- needs a vps hosting service, NOT shared hosting, which I originally bought.
So I have to cancel the account and sign up to their vps instead.... which is a fair bit more expensive:(
