ssh password dialog on each git interaction since eclipse 2023-09 [message #1862491] Thu, 07 December 2023 07:05 Go to next message

Hello!

Since eclipse 2023-09 / 6.7.0 we have the problem that we have to input the password for each git interaction (see attached image). We are connecting directly with ssh to an own server by ssh+git://, with stored username and password in eclipse. We are not using any ssh dsa/rsa keys.

I tried different settings but can't figure out what to do to fix this. I also tried to configure ssh keys on the system but with no success.

I am not any expert on this, but from the changes I saw it is maybe connected to the change in EGitCredentialsProvider in 6.7.0.?

Any help would be nice since we are not updating to a newer version of eclipse because of this. ;)

Thanks!

Looks like you're using password authentication in SSH. Can you please post a stack trace when this dialog is shown?

No stacktrace needed anymore. Your analysis is quite right. https://eclipse.gerrithub.io/c/eclipse-egit/egit/+/1173511 should fix this problem. Sorry about that.

I haven't seen any earlier report about this. I guess we don't have many users using SSH with password authentication.

Tested with the nightly version - works for me.

Case closed. :)
