| # Troubleshooting
 | |
| 
 | |
| This page contains some common seen issues and their solutions.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## SSH issues
 | |
| 
 | |
| For issues reaching repositories over `ssh` while the gitea web front-end, but
 | |
| `https` based git repository access works fine, consider looking into the following.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| Permission denied (publickey).
 | |
| fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| This error signifies that the server rejected a log in attempt, check the
 | |
| following things:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * On the client:
 | |
|   * Ensure the public and private ssh keys are added to the correct Gitea user.
 | |
|   * Make sure there are no issues in the remote url, ensure the name of the
 | |
|     git user (before the `@`) is spelled correctly.
 | |
|   * Ensure public and private ssh keys are correct on client machine.
 | |
|   * Try to connect using ssh (ssh git@myremote.example) to ensure a connection
 | |
|     can be made.
 | |
| * On the server:
 | |
|   * Make sure the repository exists and is correctly named.
 | |
|   * Check the permissions of the `.ssh` directory in the system user's home directory.
 | |
|   * Verify that the correct public keys are added to `.ssh/authorized_keys`.
 | |
|     Try to run `Rewrite '.ssh/authorized_keys' file (for Gitea SSH keys)` on the
 | |
|     Gitea admin panel.
 | |
|   * Read gitea logs.
 | |
|   * Read /var/log/auth (or similar).
 | |
|   * Check permissions of repositories.
 | |
| 
 | |
| The following is an example of a missing public SSH key where authentication
 | |
| succeeded, but some other setting is preventing SSH from reaching the correct
 | |
| repository.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
 | |
| 
 | |
| Please make sure you have the correct access rights
 | |
| and the repository exists.
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| In this case, look into the following settings:
 | |
| 
 | |
| * On the server:
 | |
|   * Make sure that the `git` system user has a usable shell set
 | |
|     * Verify this with `getent passwd git | cut -d: -f7`
 | |
|     * `usermod` or `chsh` can be used to modify this.
 | |
|   * Ensure that the `gitea serv` command in `.ssh/authorized_keys` uses the
 | |
|     correct configuration file.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Missing releases after migrating repository with tags
 | |
| 
 | |
| To migrate an repository *with* all tags you need to do two things
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Push tags to the repository:
 | |
| ```
 | |
|  git push --tags
 | |
|  ```
 | |
|  
 | |
|  * (Re-)sync tags of all repositories within gitea:
 | |
|  ```
 | |
|  gitea admin repo-sync-releases
 | |
|  ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## LFS Issues
 | |
| 
 | |
| For issues concerning LFS data upload
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```
 | |
| batch response: Authentication required: Authorization error: <GITEA_LFS_URL>/info/lfs/objects/batch                                                                                                              
 | |
| Check that you have proper access to the repository
 | |
| error: failed to push some refs to '<GIT_REPO_URL>'
 | |
| ```
 | |
| Have you checked the value of `LFS_HTTP_AUTH_EXPIRY` in your `app.ini` file? By default your LFS token will expire after 20 minutes. If you have a slow connection or a large file (or both) it may not finish uploading within the time limit. 
 | |
| 
 | |
| You may want to set this value to `60m` or `120m`.
