Java Solutions


Solution 1 - Java

Enabling credentials helper worked for me, using Android Studio 3.6.2 on Windows 10

AndroidStudio -> File -> Settings -> Git -> Use credential helper

Solution 2 - Java

Managed to fix it like this:

AndroidStudio -> Preferences -> Git -> SSH Executable and changed from Native to Built-in and it started working.

Edit: this is for Android Studio 3.4, for 3.6 Volodymyr has an answer below.

Solution 3 - Java

I had the same issue. Fixed it by adding SSH private key to the ssh-agent in the command line:

$ ssh-add -K ~/.ssh/id_rsa

Also, check if Git settings are set to Native

Settings --> Version Control --> Git in the SSH executable: dropdown, choose Native

EDIT It was fixed in the latest version 3.6.1 of Android Studio https://androidstudio.googleblog.com/2020/02/android-studio-361-available.html

Solution 4 - Java

I had the same issue,clone my project from gitlab and save credential.helper with command in terminal:

   git config credential.helper store

and

 git fetch

enter image description here

Solution 5 - Java

Use these steps to git over HTTPS not SSH:

  1. git config credential.helper store
  2. You'll be requested the credentials username/token or pass.
  3. Check this in Preferences > GIT > Use Credential Helper The checkbox Use Credential Helper

Solution 6 - Java

This Error seems to appear if your SSH Key Pair is secured with a password

The native SSH Executebale can not prompt you for your password in Android Studio afaik, so authentication will fail if the credentials are not provided otherwise.

Using the Built-in SSH Executable will let you enter your password via a prompt in Android studio.

The Answer provided by Adrian worked perfectly for me.

Solution 7 - Java

Here's what worked for me, I am running different ids on bitbucket and github

  1. Enabled Credentials Helper AndroidStudio -> File -> Settings -> Git -> Use credential helper
  2. Ran git config credential.helper store
  3. Ran git fetch through console once

Solution 8 - Java

file->setting->git-> SSH executable: dropdown, choose built in

Solution 9 - Java

I faced the same issue with Bitbucket and as they say Bitbucket Cloud recently stopped supporting account passwords for Git authentication. If you're using bitbucket here's what you need to do.

details : https://atlassian.community/t5/x/x/ba-p/1948231

  1. create an app password how to create app passwords

Allow the the appropriate permissions and create the password. once the password is generated you need to store it for later use somewhere else because you won't see it again.

  1. Goto AndroidStudio -> Preferences -> Git and tick the "Use credentials helper" and apply.

  2. run "git fetch" and the credentials helper will popup , and enter the saved app password and viola!

EDIT

followed following url:

how to use "git fetch" command

git fetch command

git remote add origin "git link"

it will ask the password

follow this link https://bitbucket.org/account/settings/app-passwords/

to create app password. and store it somewhere .It will require to place the password when asks.

git fetch
git pull origin master

that's all there you go.

Solution 10 - Java

I faced the similar. Here are the steps that resolve my problem.

  1. Go To https://bitbucket.org/account/settings/app-passwords/
  2. Create a app password
  3. Then execute git config credential.helper store
  4. Run git fetch
  5. Then it will ask for password, enter the password that created from bitbucket console.

Then it work.

Solution 11 - Java

In case you try to push from Android Studio 4 or above into Github and get this error message you have to re login into Github.

Android Studio -> Setting-> GitHub

if you can't login using username and password try to get a token from GitHub

https://github.com/settings/tokens

and then generate new token if you don't have one and login with Token just like the photo -

enter image description here

Solution 12 - Java

I faced this problem for my bitbucket account then I used terminal to get the exact error.

Below are my observations

1-git pull
fatal: Invalid credentials -- this was the error coming 
remote: Bitbucket Cloud recently stopped supporting account passwords for Git authentication.

After this I have to create app password from below link.

https://bitbucket.org/account/settings/app-passwords/

2-After setting all permissions it will create a password for you

3-Then use this password in credential manager or in terminal when it will task.

This is the latest issue I observed and solved hope it may help anyone.

Solution 13 - Java

You can try this, don't use the shortcut([email protected]:/example/example.git) provided by logging in to git, submit directly using the full repo address(https://github.com/example/example.git).

Solution 14 - Java

i had logged to gitHub with access token
and it had expired.

so i fumbled here.

solution:

Solution 15 - Java
