fatal: could not read from remote repository

Aureney

When I run rhc app ssh -a nodebb on Command Prompt I get this error:

DL is deprecated, please use Fiddle.

No system SSH available. Please use the --ssh option to specify the path tp your SSH executable, or install SSH. We recommend this free application: Git
for Windows - a basic git command line and GUI client http://msysgit.github.io/

I already installed Git, I don't know what I'm doing. I tried doing this on Git Bash, but it gives me the same error.

You can read about Terminal here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/UsingTheTerminal

It's much easier to follow a guide on a machine running Linux.

I tried this guide instead:
https://github.com/ahwayakchih/openshift-nodebb

Everything worked fine except until I ran git push origin master

All it gave me was this:

Permission denied (publickey,gssapi-keyex,gssapi-with-mic).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

I'm using Windows Powershell. I think I should use Putty because that's how I generated my SSH key.

Please check local Git repository (browse for it on your computer). You should see downloaded NodeBB files ready to be uploaded to the OpenShift Cloud. If you can't find them something went wrong.

Yeah, I can see them... I think?

I think it might help.

I'm confused. Are you supposed to copy the file to git.ssh or the folder? But I can't even find any file called git.ssh

Just make sure your SSH keys are correctly installed on both sides (local computer and OpenShift).

Aureney

Yeah, done that too. Same error is repeating over again. I think it's Git.

nhl.pl

Do you have Ruby and rhc gem installed?

When I do git push origin master it gives me this now:
fatal: Not a Git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

Forgot to CD NodeBB. Same error comes.

I think it's because my Git version is 2.6.3 instead of the one it says in there.

Anyone? Still having this error.

As a Windows user you must configure Your Identity in Git.
https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Getting-Started-First-Time-Git-Setup#Your-Identity

After that please repeat steps 3-7 from ahwayakchih's guide hosted on GitHub.

Please post an issue if you'll still have a problem when using Windows.

Wow! I managed to install NodeBB on openshift using this guide instead of the docs!

Aureney

@nhl.pl Wait. On my second try to install NodeBB, I can't cd into nodebb because the files aren't there. How do you fix it?

Maybe that guide should be merged into the NodeBB documentation then
