Error pushing project to existing repo-> Permission denied (publickey) - fatal: Could not read from remote repository

Question

When I push my project files on my local machine to online repository, it gives me the following error:

Permission denied (publickey) - fatal: Could not read from remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

I also tried this but to no avail. Does anyone know what might be the root cause?

Answer 1

The Permission denied (publickey) error means that the server rejected your connection. There could be several reasons .

• correct key
• corect server
• correct user
• ...

The must commun reason is that you dont have deployed your ssh key in github server . So check the server , also you need to check your .ssh if your ssh keys are in it .
