I have just installed puppet server enterprise and successfully added a few nodes and got some custom modules running also. I am now wanting to move to Code Manager before we get too deep in it.
I have followed the instructions for creating an empty Bitbucket repo here and initializing it with one single file environment.conf on a production branch as described in that link.
I have then followed the steps here to configure Code Manager but when I get to Test the control repository section to test the connection with puppet-code deploy --dry-run I get the following error:
--dry-run implies --all.
--dry-run implies --wait.
Dry-run deploying all environments.
2021/12/21 20:21:12 ERROR - [POST /deploys][500] Errors while collecting a list of environments to deploy (exit code: 1).

I have added the puppet server's SSH pub key to the bitbucket repo's access tokens.
There are a few things in that error message im not fully understanding.
Unable to determine current branches for Git source 'puppet' - What is meant by source 'puppet' - my repo is called puppet-control-repo...?
Failed to authenticate SSH session: Unable to send userauth-publickey request - My puppet master's SSH keys are in the token list for that repo so confused here also.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
UPDATE (13-01-2022):
I can successfully clone on puppet server using command
git clone ssh://git#git.example.com:1234/project/puppet-control-repo.git --config core.sshCommand="ssh -i /etc/puppetlabs/puppetserver/ssh/id-control_repo.rsa"
Note sure why puppet is still returning:
Failed to authenticate SSH session: Unable to send userauth-publickey request
I don't know if you saw the instructions here https://puppet.com/docs/pe/2021.4/control_repo.html#managing_environments_with_a_control_repository but you can run
puppet infrastructure configure
which makes sure the files have right permissions.
I would also test attempting a clone with keys works outside of code deploy
git clone -i /etc/puppetlabs/puppetserver/ssh/id-control_repo.rsa your_gir_url
If this works it may be worth being aware of an issue we experienced on github https://puppet.com/blog/how-githubs-protocol-changes-impact-your-puppet-code-deployments/ which depending on bitbuckets approach to protocal may be having a similar affect.
We are updating docs to recommend the usage of more secure keys ed25519 creating as per the article.
if a manual clone doesnt work it suggests bitbucket doesn't have your public key correctly
Also a more complete debugging command is
runuser -u pe-puppet -- /opt/puppetlabs/puppet/bin/r10k -c /opt/puppetlabs/server/data/code-manager/r10k.yaml deploy environment production --puppetfile --verbose debug2
FOLLOWUP
On investigation we found https://support.puppet.com/hc/en-us/articles/227829007 which showed ssh:// was required at the start of r10k_remote making an example command of ssh://git#bitbucket.org:davidsandilands/control-repo.git
I have requested updates to https://support.puppet.com/hc/en-us/articles/227829007 to highlight this is not a version confined issue and asked for the puppet code manager configuration docs to be updated to reflect this may be required.
I see that you have a .pub file in the ssh directory. I believe it's expecting a private key there.
Also do you have the master class set up to point to your repo inside of Puppet Enterprise web ui?
You'll want to set the following parameters on that class.
code_manager_auto_configure = true
r10k_private_key = $PRIVATE_KEY_IN_SSH_FOLDER_ABSOLUTE_PATH
r10k_remote = Your git URL
The PE Master can be found in Node Groups on the PE Web UI Node Groups -> PE Infrastructure -> PE Master
Thanks to #david-sandilands for helping me resolve this and guiding me to this article via the puppet community slack. Top guy!
EDIT 1:
The solution was documented here: https://support.puppet.com/hc/en-us/articles/227829007-Fix-your-Bitbucket-Stash-Code-Manager-configuration-in-Puppet-Enterprise-2015-3-to-2017-2
However the documentation was out of date as it affected version 2021.4 also.
In short:
r10k_remote = "ssh://git#git.company.com:1234/project/control-repo.git"
Not
r10k_remote = "git#git.company.com:1234/project/control-repo.git"
When working with Bitbucket Server.
EDIT 2:
Puppet have since updated their documentation:
https://puppet.com/docs/pe/2021.5/code_mgr_config.html#code_mgr_enable
I'm searching for the way to get $ go get work with private repository, after many google try.
The first try:
$ go get -v gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go
Fetching https://gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go?go-get=1
https fetch failed.
Fetching http://gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go?go-get=1
Parsing meta tags from http://gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go?go-get=1 (status code 200)
import "gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go": parse http://gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go?go-get=1: no go-import meta tags
package gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go: unrecognized import path "gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go
Yep, it did not see the meta tags because I could not know how to provide login information.
The second try:
Follow https://gist.github.com/shurcooL/6927554. Add config to .gitconfig.
[url "ssh://git#gitlab.com/"]
insteadOf = https://gitlab.com/
$ go get -v gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go --> not work
$ go get -v gitlab.com/secmask/awserver-go.git --> work but I got src/gitlab.com/secmask/awserer-go.git
Yes it work but with .git extension with my project name, I can rename it to original but do it everytime $ go get is not so good, is there an otherway?
You have one thing to configure. The example is based on GitHub but this shouldn't change the process:
$ git config --global url.git#github.com:.insteadOf https://github.com/
$ cat ~/.gitconfig
[url "git#github.com:"]
insteadOf = https://github.com/
$ go get github.com/private/repo
For Go modules to work (with Go 1.11 or newer), you'll also need to set the GOPRIVATE variable, to avoid using the public servers to fetch the code:
export GOPRIVATE=github.com/private/repo
The proper way is to manually put the repository in the right place. Once the repository is there, you can use go get -u to update the package and go install to install it. A package named
github.com/secmask/awserver-go
goes into
$GOPATH/src/github.com/secmask/awserver-go
The commands you type are:
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/secmask
git clone git#github.com:secmask/awserver-go.git
I had a problem with go get using private repository on gitlab from our company.
I lost a few minutes trying to find a solution. And I did find this one:
You need to get a private token at:
https://gitlab.mycompany.com/profile/account
Configure you git to add extra header with your private token:
$ git config --global http.extraheader "PRIVATE-TOKEN: YOUR_PRIVATE_TOKEN"
Configure your git to convert requests from http to ssh:
$ git config --global url."git#gitlab.mycompany.com:".insteadOf "https://gitlab.mycompany.com/"
Finally you can use your go get normally:
$ go get gitlab.com/company/private_repo
For people using private GitLabs, here's a snippet that may help: https://gist.github.com/MicahParks/1ba2b19c39d1e5fccc3e892837b10e21
Also pasted below:
Problem
The go command line tool needs to be able to fetch dependencies from your private GitLab, but authenticaiton is required.
This assumes your private GitLab is hosted at privategitlab.company.com.
Environment variables
The following environment variables are recommended:
export GO111MODULE=on
export GOPRIVATE=privategitlab.company.com # this is comma delimited if using multiple private repos
The above lines might fit best in your shell startup, like a ~/.bashrc.
Explanation
GO111MODULE=on tells Golang command line tools you are using modules. I have not tested this with projects not using
Golang modules on a private GitLab.
GOPRIVATE=privategitlab.company.com tells Golang command line tools to not use public internet resources for the hostnames
listed (like the public module proxy).
Get a personal access token from your private GitLab
To future proof these instructions, please follow this guide from the GitLab docs.
I know that the read_api scope is required for Golang command line tools to work, and I may suspect read_repository as
well, but have not confirmed this.
Set up the ~/.netrc
In order for the Golang command line tools to authenticate to GitLab, a ~/.netrc file is best to use.
To create the file if it does not exist, run the following commands:
touch ~/.netrc
chmod 600 ~/.netrc
Now edit the contents of the file to match the following:
machine privategitlab.company.com login USERNAME_HERE password TOKEN_HERE
Where USERNAME_HERE is replaced with your GitLab username and TOKEN_HERE is replaced with the access token aquired in the
previous section.
Common mistakes
Do not set up a global git configuration with something along the lines of this:
git config --global url."git#privategitlab.company.com:".insteadOf "https://privategitlab.company.com"
I beleive at the time of writing this, the SSH git is not fully supported by Golang command line tools and this may cause
conflicts with the ~/.netrc.
Bonus: SSH config file
For regular use of the git tool, not the Golang command line tools, it's convient to have a ~/.ssh/config file set up.
In order to do this, run the following commands:
mkdir ~/.ssh
chmod 700 ~/.ssh
touch ~/.ssh/config
chmod 600 ~/.ssh/config
Please note the permissions on the files and directory above are essentail for SSH to work in it's default configuration on
most Linux systems.
Then, edit the ~/.ssh/config file to match the following:
Host privategitlab.company.com
Hostname privategitlab.company.com
User USERNAME_HERE
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa
Please note the spacing in the above file matters and will invalidate the file if it is incorrect.
Where USERNAME_HERE is your GitLab username and ~/.ssh/id_rsa is the path to your SSH private key in your file system.
You've already uploaded its public key to GitLab. Here are some instructions.
All of the above did not work for me. Cloning the repo was working correctly but I was still getting an unrecognized import error.
As it stands for Go v1.13, I found in the doc that we should use the GOPRIVATE env variable like so:
$ GOPRIVATE=github.com/ORGANISATION_OR_USER_NAME go get -u github.com/ORGANISATION_OR_USER_NAME/REPO_NAME
Generate a github oauth token here and export your github token as an environment variable:
export GITHUB_TOKEN=123
Set git config to use the basic auth url:
git config --global url."https://$GITHUB_TOKEN:x-oauth-basic#github.com/".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
Now you can go get your private repo.
If you've already got git using SSH, this answer by Ammar Bandukwala is a simple workaround:
$ go get uses git internally. The following one liners will make git and consequently $ go get clone your package via SSH.
Github:
$ git config --global url."git#github.com:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
BitBucket:
$ git config --global url."git#bitbucket.org:".insteadOf "https://bitbucket.org/"
I came across .netrc and found it relevant to this.
Create a file ~/.netrc with the following content:
machine github.com
login <github username>
password <github password or Personal access tokens >
Done!
Additionally, for latest GO versions, you might need to add this to the environment variables GOPRIVATE=github.com
(I've added it to my .zshrc)
netrc also makes my development environment setup better as my personal github access for HTTPS is been configured now to be used across the machine (just like my SSH configuration).
Generate GitHub personal access tokens: https://github.com/settings/tokens
See this answer for its use with Git on Windows specifically
Ref: netrc man page
If you want to stick with the SSH authentication, then mask the request to use ssh forcefully
git config --global url."git#github.com:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
More methods for setting up git access: https://gist.github.com/technoweenie/1072829#gistcomment-2979908
That looks like the GitLab issue 5769.
In GitLab, since the repositories always end in .git, I must specify .git at the end of the repository name to make it work, for example:
import "example.org/myuser/mygorepo.git"
And:
$ go get example.org/myuser/mygorepo.git
Looks like GitHub solves this by appending ".git".
It is supposed to be resolved in “Added support for Go's repository retrieval. #5958”, provided the right meta tags are in place.
Although there is still an issue for Go itself: “cmd/go: go get cannot discover meta tag in HTML5 documents”.
After trying multiple solutions my problem still persisted. The final solution after setting up the ~/.netrc and SSH config file, was to add the following line to my ~/.bash_profile
export GOPRIVATE="github.com/[organization]"
I have created a user specific ssh-config, so my user automatically logs in with the correct credentials and key.
First I needed to generate an key-pair
ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096 -C "my#email.here"
and saved it to e.g ~/.ssh/id_my_domain. Note that this is also the keypair (private and public) I've connected to my Github account, so mine is stored in~/.ssh/id_github_com.
I have then created (or altered) a file called ~/.ssh/config with an entry:
Host github.com
HostName github.com
User git
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_github_com
On another server, the "ssh-url" is admin#domain.com:username/private-repo.git and the entry for this server would have been:
Host domain.com
HostName domain.com
User admin
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_domain_com
Just to clarify that you need ensure that the User, Host and HostName is set correctly.
Now I can just browse into the go path and then go get <package>, e.g go get main where the file main/main.go includes the package (from last example above) domain.com:username/private-repo.git.
For me, the solutions offered by others still gave the following error during go get
git#gl.nimi24.com: Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
What this solution required
As stated by others:
git config --global url."git#github.com:".insteadOf "https://github.com/"
Removing the passphrase from my ./ssh/id_rsa key which was used for authenticating the connection to the repository. This can be done by entering an empty password when prompted as a response to:
ssh-keygen -p
Why this works
This is not a pretty workaround as it is always better to have a passphrase on your private key, but it was causing issues somewhere inside OpenSSH.
go get uses internally git, which uses openssh to open the connection. OpenSSH takes the certs necessary for authentication from .ssh/id_rsa. When executing git commands from the command line an agent can take care of opening the id_rsa file for you so that you do not have to specify the passphrase every time, but when executed in the belly of go get, this did not work somewhy in my case. OpenSSH wants to prompt you then for a password but since it is not possible due to how it was called, it prints to its debug log:
read_passphrase: can't open /dev/tty: No such device or address
And just fails. If you remove the passphrase from the key file, OpenSSH will get to your key without that prompt and it works
This might be caused by Go fetching modules concurrently and opening multiple SSH connections to Github at the same time (as described in this article). This is somewhat supported by the fact that OpenSSH debug log showed the initial connection to the repository succeed, but later tried it again for some reason and this time opted to ask for a passphrase.
However the solution of using SSH connection multiplexing as put forward in the mentioned article did not work for me. For the record, the author suggested adding the collowing conf to the ssh config file for the affected host:
ControlMaster auto
ControlPersist 3600
ControlPath ~/.ssh/%r#%h:%p
But as stated, for me it did not work, maybe I did it wrong
After setting up GOPRIVATE and git config ...
People may still meeting problems like this when fetching private source:
https fetch: Get "https://private/user/repo?go-get=1": EOF
They can't use private repo without .git extension.
The reason is the go tool has no idea about the VCS protocol of this repo, git or svn or any other, unlike github.com or golang.org them are hardcoded into go's source.
Then the go tool will do a https query before fetching your private repo:
https://private/user/repo?go-get=1
If your private repo has no support for https request, please use replace to tell it directly :
require private/user/repo v1.0.0
...
replace private/user/repo => private.server/user/repo.git v1.0.0
https://golang.org/cmd/go/#hdr-Remote_import_paths
first I tried
[url "ssh://git#github.com/"]
insteadOf = https://github.com/
but it didn't worked for my local.
I tried
ssh -t git#github.com
and it shows my ssh is fine.
finally, I fix the problem to tell the go get to consider all as private and use ssh instead of HTTPS.
adding export GOPRIVATE=*
Make sure you remove your previous gitconfigs, I had the same issue.
Previously I executed gitconfig whose token was expired, when you execute the command next time with new token make sure to delete previous one.
For standalone/final repos, an as a quick fix, why don't just to name the module within the go.mod as a package using your company's domain ... ?
module go.yourcompany.tld/the_repo
go.yourcompany.tld don't even have to exist as a valid (sub)domain...
Also, in the same go.mod you can use replacement block/lines to use private repos previously cloned the same way (within a respective folder cloned also in $GOPATH/src/go.yourcompany.tld) (why do we have to depend too much in GitHub?)
Edit
Needless to say that a private repo usually shall be a private repo, typically a standard git repo, right? With that, why not just to git clone and then go get within the cloned folder?
It's Hard Code In Go Get. Not The Git Reason. So Modify Go Source.
Reason:
repoRootForImportDynamic Will Request: https://....go-get
// RepoRootForImportPath analyzes importPath to determine the
// version control system, and code repository to use.
func RepoRootForImportPath(importPath string, mod ModuleMode, security web.SecurityMode) (*RepoRoot, error) {
rr, err := repoRootFromVCSPaths(importPath, security, vcsPaths)
if err == errUnknownSite {
rr, err = repoRootForImportDynamic(importPath, mod, security)
if err != nil {
err = importErrorf(importPath, "unrecognized import path %q: %v", importPath, err)
}
}
if err != nil {
rr1, err1 := repoRootFromVCSPaths(importPath, security, vcsPathsAfterDynamic)
if err1 == nil {
rr = rr1
err = nil
}
}
So add gitlab domain to vcsPaths will ok.
Download go source code:
vi ./src/cmd/go/internal/vcs/vcs.go
Look for code below:
var vcsPaths = []*vcsPath{
// GitHub
{
pathPrefix: "github.com",
regexp: lazyregexp.New(`^(?P<root>github\.com/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+)(/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+)*$`),
vcs: "git",
repo: "https://{root}",
check: noVCSSuffix,
},
add Code As Follow,XXXX Is Your Domain:
// GitLab
{
pathPrefix: "gitlab.xxxx.com",
regexp: lazyregexp.New(`^(?P<root>gitlab.xxxx\.com/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+)(/[A-Za-z0-9_.\-]+)*$`),
vcs: "git",
repo: "https://{root}",
check: noVCSSuffix,
},
compile and replace go.
I have previously had Serverless installed on a server, and then when I tried to edit the function and package it back up to edit the zip file I broke it, so I have to start all over. So to begin this issue: I had Serverless running and was using it with this package - https://github.com/adieuadieu/serverless-chrome/tree/master/examples/serverless-framework/aws
When I sudo npm run deploy, I get the ServerlessError:
ServerlessError: User: arn:aws:sts::XXX:assumed-role/EC2CodeDeploy/i-268b1acf is not authorized to perform: cloudformation:DescribeStackResources on resource: arn:aws:cloudformation:us-east-1:YYY:stack/aws-dev/*
I'm not sure why it is trying to connect to a Role and not an IAM. So I check the Role, and it is in an entirely different AWS account than the account I've configured. Let's call this Account B.
When it comes to configuration, I've installed AWS CLI and entered in the key, id, and region in my Account A in AWS. Not touching Account B whatsoever. When I run aws s3 ls I see the correct s3 buckets of the account with the key/id/regioin, so I know CLI is working with the correct account. Sounds good. I check the ~/.aws/creditionals file and just has one profile [default] which seems normal. No other profiles are in here. I copied this over to the ~/.aws/config file so now both files are same. Works great.
I then go into my SSH where I've installed serverless, and run npm run deploy and it gives me the same message above. I think maybe somehow it is not using the correct account for whatever reason. So I manually set the access key and secret with the following commands:
serverless config credentials --provider aws --key XXX --secret YYY
It tells me there already is a profile in the aws creds file, so I then add --o to the end to overwrite. I run sudo npm run deploy and still same error.
I then run this command to manually set a profile in the creds for serverless, with the profile name matching the IAM user name:
serverless config credentials --provider aws --key XXX --secret YYY --profile serverless-agent
Where "serverless-agent" is the name of my IAM user I've been trying to use to deploy. I run this, it tells me there already is an existing profile in the aws creds file so I run it with --o and it tells me the aws file is now updated. In bash I go to Vim the file and I only see the single "[default]" settings, as if nothing has changed. I run sudo npm run deploy and it gives me the same Error.
I then go and manually set the access and secret:
export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=XXX
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=YYY
I run sudo npm run deploy and it gives me the same Error.
I even removed AWS CLI, and the directory that holds the creditionals and config files - and when I manually set my account creds via serverless config it tells me there already is a profile set up in my aws file, prompting me to use the overwrite command - how is this possible when the file is literally not on my computer?
So I then think that serverless itself has a cache or something, calling the wrong file or whatever for creds, so I uninstall serverless via sudo npm uninstall -g serverless so that I can start from zero again. I then do all of the above steps and more all over again, and nothing has changed. Same error message.
I do have Apex.run set up, but that should be using my AWS CLI config file so I'm not sure if that is causing any problems. But then again I've no clue of anything deep on this subject, and I can't find any ability to remove Apex itself in their docs.
In the package I am trying to deploy, I do not have a profile:XXX set in the serverless.yml file, because I've read if you do not then it just defaults to the [default] profile you have set in the aws creds file on your computer. Just to check, I go into the serverless.yml file and set the profile: default, and the error I now get when I run npm run deploy is
Profile default does not exist
How is that possible when I have the "default" profile set in my creds file? So I remember that previously I ran the serverless config creditionals command and added the profile name of serverless-agent to it (yet didn't save in the aws creds file as I mentioned above), so I add that profile name to the serverless.yml file just to see if this works, and same error of "Profile default does not exist".
So back to the error message. The Role is an account not even related to the IAM user I'm using in my aws creds. Without knowing a lot about this, it's as if the config in serverless via ssh isn't correct or something. Is it using old creds I had set up in Apex.run? Why is the aws creds file not updated with the profile when I manually set it in serverless config command? I am using the same user account (but with new key and secret) that I used a few weeks ago when I correctly deployed and my Lambda and API was set up for me on AWS. Boy do I miss those time and wish I didn't mess up my existing Lambda functions, without setting version number prior, forcing me to start all over.
I am so confused. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
If you are using IAM role then you have to use that IAM role through assume role using powershell.
I was also facing same issue earlier, when we moved from from user to role.
when I am trying to clone a rails app repo I have got permission to, I am getting this issue.
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
Even after adding public key by generating one, I am unable to solve this.
Although I am able to clone using he https method but after making changes, the same error comes while I try to push the code.
Please suggest an answer for this.
First, cd into your .ssh directory. Open up the terminal and run:
cd ~/.ssh && ssh-keygen
Second, you need to copy this to your clipboard:
cat id_rsa.pub | pbcopy # On OSX
cat id_rsa.pub | xclip # On Linux
Third, add your newly generated ssh key to your account via the github/bitbucket website (just paste there).
Next, setup your git config:
git config --global user.name 'your_user_name'
git config --global user.email 'your_email'
Finally, restart your command line to make sure the config is reloaded.
Now, you should be able to clone and push from/to your github repository.
For more information on this, see this github page or this bitbucket page.
When attempting to clone, push, or pull over SSH with Git, you may receive one of these messages if Bitbucket couldn't authenticate with the keys that your SSH agent offered.
Here are the most common reasons why you may see these messages:
You used sudo when attempting the connection
You shouldn't use sudo when cloning, pushing, or pulling because the ssh-agent runs on the user level, not the root level.
Your public key isn't loaded into Bitbucket
To check if your public key is loaded into Bitbucket, do the following:
From Bitbucket, choose Personal settings from your avatar in the lower left.
The Account settings page displays.
Click SSH keys.
The SSH keys page shows a list of any existing keys.
If you don't have any keys listed, you can follow our Set up an SSH key documentation to set one up.
Your key isn't loaded into your SSH agent
If your SSH agent doesn't know to offer Bitbucket a key, the connection fails. You may run into this issue if you've recently restarted your system.
You can refer to this Article for more informations:
https://support.atlassian.com/bitbucket-cloud/docs/troubleshoot-ssh-issues/
Check few things.
Is the generated new key is the one your ssh agent using when trying to ssh to server.
(Your ssh agent might be using a different key than the one you generated)
use this to list currently loaded keys by agent.
ssh-add -L
You properly added public key to your repository hosting location.
The keys corresponding to above 1 and 2 should match.
Please see this article: GitHub: Generating SSH Keys. What happens when you run:
ssh -T git#bitbucket.org
?
You may have added the wrong key to authenticate with.
I faced this error when I created another repository in my local. My ssh-keys were already set up and I was trying to push code through vs code.
The issue got resolved when I git push-ed through git bash like I was doing before.
For bit bucket I think I have tried everything with ssh. I have tried the answer from this stackoverflow question as well. But it doesn't work. So finally I just changed the clone command from SSH to HTTPS and it worked. Only then it asked for password for my account.
I am following the ruby.railstutorial. I run the command "git push heroku master" and it spits out this error.
Permission denied (publickey).

I am inside my rails app "/Users/lexi87/rails_projects/first_app". Any solutions?
The best way to avoid such errors is to use one public/private key pair and not an extra key for heroku. This way you (or your system) can't choose a wrong key to login in heroku.
If you get this error, you have done something wrong. Check this site: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/keys
If you geht this error, the best way is to remove unnecessary keys and use only one.
If you need more than one key pair on your system, you can set one key for heroku. This is done through the following command:
heroku keys:add

it does, delete all files in it (this assumes you are OK with starting from scratch with ssh keys).
In Windows Explorer, right click the
.ssh folder, and choose Git bash from the context menu. This is installed along with the Github Windows client software.
In the bash window enter
ssh-keygen -t rsa -C "yourname#email.com" When prompted enter a
passphrase (don't lose this).
Close the bash shell window.
From a cmd prompt in your project's root, enter heroku keys:add.
This will find and upload the key you just created from your /.ssh file to
Heroku.
Now you can enter git push heroku master to push you app up to Heroku.
Note: you will need to add your newly generated ssh public key to your Github account when done.
I faced the same issue. In my .ssh folder I had a file called 'Known Hosts'. I kept trying to delete and create new ssh keys it did not work. In the end I just deleted everything in .ssh including 'Known Hosts' and then created a new rsa key using:
ssh-keygen -t rsa
then I added this new key to heroku using:
heroku keys:add
then create a new heroku repo and pushed my app to it:
heroku create
git push heroku master
ssh-keygen -t rsa
Above is optional as you could also link to an existing key. Heroku will prompt to select the key in the next step.
heroku keys:add
Add your newly created key or an existing one. If you are still running into the issue, you will most likely need to add the key to your machine's list of ssh keys by performing the following:
ssh-add ~/.ssh/name_of_your_rsa
and confirm that your ssh has been added
ssh-add -l
This should get you access to push to Heroku's remote repo.
on OSX, I was having experiencing the same issue, I was getting
no such identity: /Users/me/.ssh/yourPrivateKey: No such file or directory
Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
I tried to create a new key with ssh-keygen -t rsa then adding it with heroku keys:add, but it didn't help.
Then I found a file named config in ~/.ssh/, and inside the file there was:
ServerAliveInterval 300
ServerAliveCountMax 3
host heroku.com
user git
hostname heroku.com
identityfile ~/.ssh/yourPrivateKey
So I changed yourPrivateKey to my private key filename (id_rsa by default) aaand it worked :)
I created a key with
ssh-keygen -t rsa
and used a different filename than id_rsa (in my case heroku). I added the key to heroku with
heroku keys:add
On trying to push my master branch to heroku I always received the following error:
$ git push heroku master
The authenticity of host 'heroku.com
(50.19.85.132)' can't be established. RSA key fingerprint is

to continue connecting (yes/no)? yes Warning: Permanently added
'heroku.com,50.19.85.132' (RSA) to the list of known hosts. Permission

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository
exists.
As I noticed git only used my id_rsa key from another ssh-access (you can check that via your git gui: Help -> SSH keys).
I renamed my .ssh directory C:\Users\%username%.ssh to .ssh.bak and copied my heroku private and public key (from the .ssh.bak directory) to a newly created .ssh directory and named it id_rsa (and id_rsa.pub).
Now pushing worked as expected:
git push heroku master
If you are working on Windows, be sure to use git-bash instead of Powershell/Command Prompt.
If you just want to reset your ssh keys:
delete your user's .ssh dir
open git-bash
ssh-keygen -t rsa
heroku keys:add
and then you will be able to git push.
