Pkg.clone error when password is needed #17569

davidanthoff · 2016-07-22T21:56:45Z

On Ubuntu 16.04. I can repo sometimes, but sometimes everything just works, a bit sporadic and I haven't figured out when it works and when it doesn't work.

Keno · 2016-07-22T21:57:49Z

Same issue as before, GitHub hangs up the connection if you take too long to enter the password. Before it would hang, now you get this. Ideally libgit2 would allow us to retry.

tkelman · 2016-07-23T02:08:15Z

similar to #17353

wildart · 2016-07-23T17:53:10Z

Confirm, this is connectivity issue. But #17353 is different.

tkelman · 2016-07-23T17:54:34Z

retries are also likely needed to fix #16555

baggepinnen · 2016-08-07T20:33:40Z

I also experience errors with Pkg.clone(). I can not tell if they are related, error messages differ. I can also mention that the error occurs immediately after I run the command Pkg.clone(), i.e. no wait time for passwords etc.

wildart · 2016-08-08T01:42:57Z

@baggepinnen For https connection, you have incorrect credentials. If you use 2FA, it's probably auth. token related. As of ssh, what is you key type and size?

Keno · 2016-08-08T01:49:33Z

HTTPS error may also be #17860

baggepinnen · 2016-08-08T05:57:24Z

My credentials work fine for my 0.4.5 installation, and I have not yet entered any for the fresh 0.5.0 installation.
My ssh key is of type 2048 SHA256 (RSA), if that makes sense?

Keno · 2016-08-08T16:17:31Z

Looking at the SSH error again, it happens during kex which is earlier than userauth. What remote are you connecting to? GitHub?

baggepinnen · 2016-08-08T16:32:29Z

I'm connecting to a gitlab server we have at work. The server works well for Julia 0.4.6 and otherwise.

Keno · 2016-08-08T17:01:37Z

Ok, I wouldn't be surprised if that issue is #17772 then.

vchuravy · 2016-09-16T20:27:27Z

I just encountered this and I was wondering. Why does Pkg.clone require a username and password?

Also I am getting a syscall failure (on power here):

The problem here was that the URL was wrong...

Keno · 2016-09-16T20:31:48Z

It doesn't, try Pkg.clone("https://github.com/JuliaGPU/CUDAnative.jl"). It asks for username/password in case there's a private repo of that name that you can't see without logging in.

vchuravy · 2016-09-16T20:47:44Z

Yeah I figured as much. Sorry for the noise, but the behaviour confused me.

krcools · 2016-10-16T16:13:07Z

I am seeing the same behavior as @baggepinnen on:

Cloning over ssh from github and bitbucket works just fine.

tkelman · 2017-03-05T01:11:45Z

Are people still having these issues?

krcools · 2017-03-06T13:39:51Z

Yes, only when cloning from GitLab. Not this thread's topic I know, but how strongly is Julia and its package eco-system tied in with GitHub?

On v0.6 I see #20695, independent of the hosting service.

BoundaryValueProblems · 2017-03-11T04:00:03Z

I have exactly the same problem of GitError(Code:ERROR, Class:SSH, Failed to start SSH session: Unable to exchage encription keys when I use Pkg.clone("[email protected]:...") on my Windows machine. If I use https instead of ssh/git, then it works (though I have to type my username/password for my GitLab account). Interestingly, I do not have any problems with my Mac OS X and Ubuntu/Linux machines. I am using julia v0.5.1.

Can this be closed now?
I feel like since the Package manager has been replaced and the libgit2 version changed,
odds are this has been fixed.
If not a fresh example is wanted to prove otherwise

tkelman added the libgit2 The libgit2 library or the LibGit2 stdlib module label Jul 23, 2016

JeffBezanson added the packages Package management and loading label Jul 26, 2016

ViralBShah added this to the 0.5.x milestone Aug 8, 2016

StefanKarpinski added help wanted Indicates that a maintainer wants help on an issue or pull request and removed help wanted Indicates that a maintainer wants help on an issue or pull request labels Oct 27, 2016

JeffBezanson changed the title ~~Pkg.clone error~~ Pkg.clone error when password is needed May 21, 2018
