SSH - GitLab: Deploy keys are not allowed to push code. fatal: Could not read from remote repository

Hi, I have been trying to troubleshoot this issue for a couple of days, but unsuccessful.

HTTP works: git push origin Username for 'http://git-server': user1 Password for 'http://user1@git-server': Everything up-to-date

SSH does not work: git push ssh GitLab: Deploy keys are not allowed to push code. fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.

When I looked at the gitlab-shell logs, I found this: W, [2016-01-06T15:58:47.496810 #86248] WARN -- : gitlab-shell: Access denied for git command <git-receive-pack 'conf-files.git'> by user with key key-4.

I ran the following command and it's working: /opt/gitlab/embedded/service/gitlab-shell/bin/check Check GitLab API access: OK Check directories and files: /var/opt/gitlab/git-data/repositories: OK /var/opt/gitlab/.ssh/authorized_keys: OK Test redis-cli executable: redis-cli 2.8.21 Send ping to redis server: PONG

I searched through google, Stack Overflow etc. but no luck. Any help appreciated.

Deploy keys only have read-only access to the repo. If you wish to push, you need to add an SSH key to your user and make sure git is using that key, not the deploy key.

Status changed to closed

Thank you ...That worked!

Tks for support!

Deploy keys are now allowed to push, too, if you specifically allow this behavior. See https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-ce/issues/1376. Also the API docs on deploy keys mention that feature.

(Unfortunately, the can_push value doesn't seem to be transmitted correctly through the API; keys that I create through with API calls are all read-only. Anyone else experiencing the same issue?)
