Make sure you set remote location correctly. What does Git service you use? Is it GitHub or something other?
To check did you set remote location correctly, execute git remote -v in project directory (in same directory you did git push live master).

  • git remote -v

If you use GitHub, output should be like one of this two:

Example output 1 - Remote listing - Git
live    https://github.com/your-github-username/repo-name (fetch)
live    https://github.com/your-github-username/repo-name (push)
Example output 2 - Remote listing - Git
live    git@github.com:your-github-username/repo-name (fetch)
live    git@github.com:your-github-username/repo-name (push)

In case of first output, you should be asked for username and password once you try push. For second, make sure you have set up SSH keys correctly. If you don’t have SSH key, you can follow GitHub guide to do so.
If you use GitHub and don’t match above pattern, you made some mistake. Also, once again, make sure you typed your username and repo name correctly.

thanks a lot xMudrii for your response , but can you tell me if my thinking is correct or not :
when i added live brunch i gave it the path on the Ubuntu hosting server like this :
git remote add live root@x.x.x.x:/opt/adviser.git where x.x.x.x is Ubuntu hosting server IP Address
so when i typed git remote -v i get :
live root@x.x.x.x:/opt/adviser.git (fetch)
live root@x.x.x.x:/opt/adviser.git (push)
origin https://github.com/myname/adviser.git (fetch)
origin https://github.com/myname/adviser.git (push)
is that correct , i add remote brunch with my hosting server path depend on this link https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-set-up-automatic-deployment-with-git-with-a-vps
please help , i need any idea that help me ....

Hello there.

It should be correct. In case of Hooks, this is how you want to do it.
First I would verify, do you have access to Ubuntu Server from Git Bash. To do so, use ssh command:

  • ssh root@droplet-ip

If that doesn’t show error (for example Permission denied (publickey).), that means this part is OK.
However, if error appears, make sure you have configured correctly SSH key on server and on client.

In case this is not a problem, make sure you created repository on Ubuntu Server correctly.
You could use How To Use Git Hooks To Automate Development and Deployment Tasks instead of DO tutorial you linked in answer, as this is newer.

How To Use Git Hooks To Automate Development and Deployment Tasks
by Justin Ellingwood
Git is a very robust and mature version control system that has seen great adoption in recent years. One of git's great features is its ability to use "hooks" to call arbitrary scripts when certain git events occur. In this guide, we'll discuss the general idea behind git hooks, talk about how to work around some of its inconsistencies, and demonstrate some implementations that you can use in your development process.

    Are you sure you have your keys in right location?
    Above output is indicating that it can’t find your key. Make sure you have it in C:\Users\DELL\.ssh\id_rsa. Also make sure that key is called id_rsa and not something other.

    As a last resort, you can try generating new key, directly from, Git Bash and adding it to server authorized keys.
    You can follow steps from Initial Server Set Up - Step 4 tutorial. You will have to copy key manually using Putty.

For The access Denied Issues And git username , password

I had this problem too but managed to solve it, the error is that ur computer has saved a git username and password so if you shift to another account the error 403 will appear. Below is the solution
For Windows you can find the keys here:

control panel > user accounts > credential manager > Windows credentials > Generic credentials

Next remove the Github keys.
