GitLab 6.3 CE Droplet - SSH Push fails

Posted on December 3, 2013

Pushing to a fresh install of gitlab with the application image from DigitalOcean fails with Access denied. fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

I used the DigitalOcean guide to setup the installation: https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-use-the-gitlab-one-click-install-image-to-manage-git-repositories

I had this issue, it turned out that the git repository wasn’t being cerated at all in /var/opt/gitlab/git-data/repositories restarting the server fixed it for me, not sure why.

shutdown -r now

I’ve just tried pushing to a gitlab repo and it worked (fresh GitLab droplet). What command are you trying to run?

git push -u origin master <br> <br>I also tried Git-Tower (Git-Client for Mac) => same issue
