Deploy failed / Host key verification failed. from gitlab private repository

Support
1

I have a blog with hugo and repository in gitlab.com. Deploy failed in today. Latest deploy succeed in November.

When checking out from a private repository on Gitlab, the error “Host key verification failed” appears to occur in the middle of the checkout process.

12:52:20 PM: Host key verification failed.
12:52:20 PM: fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
12:52:20 PM: Please make sure you have the correct access rights
12:52:20 PM: and the repository exists.
12:52:20 PM: fatal: could not fetch 89beb7bfef7046a3987603ee9e79da6e02da138f from promisor remote

The relevant error message (could not fetch %s from promisor remote) is outputted in https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/promisor-remote.c . Is this issue raised by gitlab or git client ?

hi @utimukat55

This feels like an issue with us not being able to reach the specific endpoint. Does it work locally? If so, are you adding any necessary keys to your envronment variables?

Thanks

@gualter ,
thanks for reply. I tested build hugo locally and results were success in 3 patterns.

  • hugo server
  • hugo
  • hugo --gc --minify

So, what I am wondering is that there appears to be an error during the git checkout process. I made my blog with netlify using gitlab login. I have never set any key to read gitlab repository. Please let me know if there are any points of reference that I should refer to.

thanks.

Any success in solving the issue?

I started to have this issue too. None of the previous deploys failed.

hi @DataCorrupted and @rmarto

We’re you able to sort this out? I can see you both have sucessful builds now.

@utimukat55 maybe the solution they potentially offer may help on your end.

Ah yes, opting HUGO_ENABLEGITINFO = "false" helped. ("build.command" failed - Git-related? - #7 by nathanmartin)

I see a lot of similar posts starting Jan 6. My guess is some config broke at Netlify side. But the workaround works for me now.

I reported my netlify build was back to success.

I just changed HUGO_VERSION to HUGO_VERSION = 0.59.1 in netlify.toml. before was HUGO_VERSION = “0.55.6”. But 0.55.6 was success in last November.

This is not the problem I had in mind, but maybe the hugo version will change the result.

thanks for working.
