SSH Troubleshooting | Bitbucket Cloud Cloud KB (2023)

Platform Notice: Cloud, Server, and Data Center- This article applies equally to allplatforms.

If you're having trouble with SSH, here are a few things you can try when troubleshooting. There are two types of problems you may have: uploading the ssh key to Bitbucket and connecting to Bitbucket. This article should help you with two links to more detailed information about the error you are having. You should also remember that this is trying to be, but it is not an exhaustive list of problems that you may have. There may be another, simpler KB article that matches your issue that isn't linked here. This KB article is also not intended to be a definitive explanation of ssh logs. We only intend to point out common problems that our users have seen. Places in the logs where we don't see any problems, the explanation is probably oversimplified.

If you are using Sourcetree, some of these solutions come with Sourcetree steps. However, it may be necessary to use the command line for others. From a sourcetree repository, you can find the command line by clickingTerminalin the upper right corner.

If your problem isn't linked here, keep the debug log output you see. The community or support will need you to provide more data and will want to document the bug.

These are issues when adding ssh public keys to Bitbucket.

Invalid SSH key

When adding an SSH public key to Bitbucket Cloud, the following error appears:Invalid SSH keyoInvalid SSH key (ssh-keygen). please, watch itInvalid SSH keyfor more details.

Has anyone already registered this SSH key?

please, watch itHas anyone already registered this SSH key?if you see the following error when trying to add a new SSH key on Bitbucket Cloud:

Someone already registered that SSH key.

If you're connecting to Bitbucket using ssh, you might see some of these issues. What is listed here is a debug log analysis that you can use to identify a specific problem.

This is the command we'll use to get debug data from your client. The -v is a verbose log level. The -T is for avoiding an interactive shell. This command can generate a large amount of data.

ssh -vvv -t bitbucket.org

You can also enable ssh debug logging when using git.

GIT_SSH_COMMAND="ssh -vvv" git <command>
(Video) How to troubleshoot SSH Issues in real time

From here, we'll take sections of the ssh debug output and explain what that means. For example, the first section has the command being executed and a debug log line. each section will have a different length.

analyze debugging

This section has the ssh client debugging lines with the following parsing. Known issues will be linked to knowledge base articles. For more information about these records, you can refer toSecure Shell (SSH) protocol parameters.

$ ssh -v -T bitbucket.org OpenSSH_8.6p1, LibreSSL 3.3.6debug1: read configuration data /Users/user/.ssh/config

Start of ssh configuration. These logs show the versions of the SSH client that are used on your local system.

debug1: Read configuration data from /etc/ssh/ssh_configdebug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 21: include /etc/ssh/ssh_config.d/* with no matching files debug1: /etc/ssh/ssh_config line 54: Apply options to * debug1 : Authentication provider $SSH_SK_PROVIDER is not resolved; disable

This section tells you which files were used to configure your local ssh client. This can change depending on the user making the connection.

debug1: Connecting to port 192.168.1.4 [192.168.1.4] 22.debug1: Connection established.

If you see "Connection established", it means that the tcp connection forbitbucket.orgis working. This is an example of a successful connection. Expand to see the errors:

  • You may see a network timeout. please, watch itPort 22 is blocked on the local networkfor more details. Here are some examples:

A -1 means an error. So either the file was not an ssh key or the file was not terminated. In this case, the identity chosen was /Users/user/.ssh/id_ed25519 because it had the maximum value, 3.

These log messages showbitbucket.orgServer key and where it belongs in the known_hosts file. In this case, the known_hosts file, /Users/user/.ssh/known_hosts, corresponded to the server key on line 3.

Authenticated at bitbucket.org ([18.205. 93.1]:22)

This section is how ssh clients identify the user. In this case, Bitbucket Cloud allows the client to attempt to identify itself using the ssh public key. The ssh client offered the id at /Users/user/.ssh/id_ed25519 to Bitbucket. If Bitbucket doesn't accept the key, you won't see Authentication Succeeded, you should see an error like: There are no more authentication methods to try.

If Bitbucket doesn't accept your key, you might get an error like this.

debug1: Trying private key: .ssh/aws/user.pemdebug1: Authentications can continue: publickeydebug1: No more authentication methods for try.user@bitbucket.org: Permission denied (public key).

See this link for more details:remote: No supported authentication methods to test!

This section is ssh setting up the terminal environment and configuring shell access. In this case, Bitbucket Cloud has interactive shells disabled. Only non-interactive shells are allowed. For security reasons, the only actions allowed over ssh are those required by git. So ssh exits the session while providing some data about the connection.

One potential issue is that if you have multiple SSH keys configured to access different Bitbucket accounts, you might encounter the following error when performing Git operations such as clone, push, etc.

The requested repository does not exist or you do not have access. If you believe this repository exists and you have access, make sure you are authenticated. fatal: cannot read from remote repository.

See this link for more details on how to confirm that ssh is using the correct key:Multiple SSH key configurations for different Bitbucket Cloud accounts

But it also provided non-debug data about how the user was authenticated. This was a successful ssh session.
