Hi again Tekchand, Thanks for your answer. It looks like you are still looking into the SSH connection side. My advice was to look into the file permission problem, cf for instance https://stackoverflow.com/questions/20276895/could-not-create-work-tree-dir-example-com-permission-denied which details what I was mentioning.
You also said: > As per my knowledge, when we clone git as deploy user then the ownership > of the file (directory) should be deploy by default if it able to fetch the > repository. You are correct about the permission issue (i.e. the ownership of the file/directory should be that of the 'deploy' user). My feeling is that you get the error because the directory you are cloning into does not have proper write permissions for the 'deploy' user. This is the reason I was asking where you were cloning in. Unless you manually cd into a directory of your choice, you can't know where you will end up (maybe this is '/' you are cloning in ...). In short, to me, if it were a connection issue w/ SSH you would not get a 'permission denied' problem when creating the directory, rather sth like 'connection refused' or something similar. Let us know how it goes, Vincent On Wed, Jan 2, 2019 at 9:20 PM Tekchand Dagar <[email protected]> wrote: > Hello Vincent, > > Thank you for your response. > > *fatal: could not create work tree dir 'test-packr-clone': Permission > denied"* > > *'test-packr-clone'* is the repository which i need to clone in my image. > Please refer the attached file for permission details which is created by > ansible playbook. > > As per my knowledge, when we clone git as deploy user then the ownership > of the file (directory) should be deploy by default if it able to fetch the > repository. > > The issue i am facing is how I can fetch my code from Gitlab during image > creation still i am out of ideas. > > On Wednesday, January 2, 2019 at 11:02:52 PM UTC+5:30, Vincent Rubiolo > wrote: >> >> Hi Tekchand, >> >> Rickard already provided a lot of useful information about the SSH >> connection.
