Question

(Using Vista)I m trying to clone an app from my GitHub Repository and push it into Heroku. Okay, so I ve tried to create an SSH key so many times with this:

 `ssh-keygen -t rsa`

It seems to go perfectly. I have it on my C:/Users/***/.ssh folder. I now try to clone an app i forked in GitHub. When I try to clone it on the rails_apps directory, I get a message saying

 Permission Denied(public key).

I found a solution on the net saying that I should run this first:

`ssh-add`

So I tried doing that. But it said that:

Could not open a connection to your authentication agent.

Then after some googling I find something about executing the ssh-agent. So I do this:

`ssh-agent bash`

and the command line changes from my rails_apps directory to this:

`bash3.1$>`

So I run:

`bash3.1$>ssh-add [path to .ssh folder]`

and it successfully adds the rsa private key(it doesn t work with id-rsa.pub). I have also pasted the newly generated public key to my GitHub account.

Now when I try to clone:

`bash3.1$>git clone git@github.com:username/myrepo.git`

It now successfully clones the repo I forked in GitHub. Now that I have the app in my local repo, I try to create a heroku app.

`bash3.1$>cd myrepo`  
`bash3.1$>heroku create myapp`

And this code runs successfully. Git remote added successfully. Now all I have to do is to push it.

`bash3.1$>git push heroku master`

BAM! I get the error message again.

Permission denied (public key)

I am so close into pushing my app to heroku. But it just won t work. Can you help me. What am I doing wrong here? Thanks! :D

Answer 1

Note: your ticket on GitHub Support prompted the answer:

You need to give heroku your key. There should be a command to do it. If you can t find it, you ll have to contact their support.

For that, see Graeme Collins s answer (and also Heroku error: "Permission denied (public key)" ):

heroku keys:add ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

See Heroku devcenter for more on that process.
You can then see a list of all keys, including the key’s name, like this:

heroku keys

Note: that suppose you didn t use sudo to generate your keys, as " git clone heroku ssh permission denied " illustrates (where heroku keys:add doesn t work)

More information about your ssh keys in your other GitHub Support ticket.

debug1: Trying private key: /.ssh/identity
debug1: Trying private key: /.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: Trying private key: /.ssh/id_dsa

I m not sure why it would be looking at /.ssh and not ~/.ssh then.
Try moving your keypair over to that path.

Shouldn t that be:

 git push origin master

? By default, a reference to the cloned repo is called origin , not heroku

What does

git remote -v show

display?

It you want, you can reference the distant repo by the heroku name

git remote add heroku git@github.com:git_username/projectname.git

Answer 2

I had a similar problem. Running the following command fixed it for me:

heroku keys:add ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

Substitute "~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub" with your path to your id_rsa.pub file.

Answer 3

The following line solved the problem for me.

heroku accounts:set youraccount

Answer 4

You can login first in heroku providing Enail and Password and can follow the following steps to add a local git repository into a heroku application instance.

Issue this command at the Git Bash $ ssh-keygen -t rsa (default location and with empty passphrase. You can alternatives too).
Again issue at the bash $ heroku keys:add (It will automatically add the public key from the default location).
Issu this at the bash to check keys. $ heroku keys .
You can add the remote for you app name $ heroku git:remote -a app_name
Now you can push the git repo to the heroku using this command $ heroku push origin master
