Login to GitHub failed both HTTPS and SSH [message #1850429] Wed, 02 March 2022 11:34 Go to next message

Hello:

I set up a new private repository on GitHub. I read on this forum that there was a bug which has been fixed in the nightly build so I installed the EGit nightly but that did not fix it.

When I try to close a repository using HTTPS, I get this exception:
org.eclipse.jgit.api.errors.TransportException: https://github.com/NeilAgg2001/PfMarketing.git: not authorized

When I try to login using SSH, I get this error:

When I change my repository to public, I was able to login over HTTPS without any problems, but that is not a valid workaround. I do not want the repository code visible to others.

If I switch my project back to private, EGit asks for the login credentials again and fails.

Are you logging in with your personal access token? I believe the account password will not work anymore...

Yes, for HTTPS use a personal access token (PAT). Just enter the PAT instead of a password when EGit asks for the log-in credentials. To be able to access private repositories, the PAT must have the "repo" scope. See the EGit User's Guide.

For SSH, do _not_ use your username. Use "git@github.com". (And of course, have the public key installed on Github.)

I did not realize I needed to generate a PAT. That worked. Thank you!
