GIT plugin in jenkins not able to connect to GIT repository

Question

I am trying to pull the code form GIT using GIT Plugin Jenkins and the job is running on a slave machine.

MASTER system has http_proxy=mycom.domain.com:80

and in SLAVE system there is no http_proxy defined.

Whenever I am doing git clone locally in the SLAVE machine it works perfectly, however from Jenkins I haven't been successful.

It is throwing the following error: Error fetching remote repo 'origin'

Answer 1

While pulling the code from GIT using Jenkins it was setting the http_proxy to mycom.domain.com:80 (MASTER machine proxy) and this proxy was not required in the SLAVEmachine.

So, I just added the GIT URL to No Proxy Host section (Manage Jenkins -> Manage Plugins -> Advanced -> HTTP Proxy Configuration -> Added GIT URL in No Proxy Host field) in Jenkins and now it is working fine.

Comments

Could you please share the URL format which you have added in no proxy host .

Copy your Git URL and paste as it is.

Answer 2

Make sure in Jenkins credentials your password must be access token, that's a problem at your end, run Jenkins again after update it

hi Kiara,

I was using access token and git plugin was able to recognize git directory url.But not with same token it is not.

I have tried with new token also but the result is same.

do you have any idea for this?

---

Hey @Shivam, Create a new token with all the accesses. 

settings > developer settings > personal access tokens > generate new token

---

Hi Kalgi,

I have tried with new token also,But issue remains same,

Jenkins is  not recognizing github directory url.

---

do you get any specific error?

---

Yes,

I get below error

Jenkins stderr: Host key verification failed. fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

---

Are you running this command from your Jenkins master?

---

Hi Kalgi,

sorry for late response,

Yes,I am running commands on jenkins master.

Hey @Shivam, can you start another thread with this question? You doubt differs from the actual thread. It'll get very confusing for other readers.

Answer 3

try to disable use of the git credential cache using git config --global --unset credential.helper. You may also need to do git config --system --unset credential.helper if this has been set in the system config file

Answer 4

This looks like a git configuration issue, Try cloning the git repo from the command line.
