I have received the following error multiple times:
Could not read remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.
I am very confused about how to remedy this error.

Make sure you are using the correct SSH keys/usernames on both your GitHub account and your local machine. Here's how you can do that on GitHub
Also, you might consider using an alternative Git manager. I've never heard of Aptana, but I do know that GitHub has an awesome GUI program for managing your repositories.
In the future, this is all much easier and more streamlined on Linux/Unix operating systems like Ubuntu. Ubuntu is geared towards developers and has things like Git and SSH installed correctly by default.
I had the same problem - it was caused by me using the SSH key instead of the HTTPS URL. I created my repository by importing a project via Intellij and it must have pushed via HTTPS.
I had the exact same issue with a private repo. Cloning through the same error both through https and ssh
Then I made a commit through github (simply updated the README.md
with an empty line)
Surprisingly enough, this resolved the issue. It would be nice to know why though!
Assuming you have done the proper SSH keys configuration according to github's instructions it might be a problem of pull with https and later pushing with git+ssh
to make it more clear
if you have used https to pull
git pull https://github.com/user/repo.git
then you have changed remote URL
git remote set-url origin git+ssh://github.com/user/repo.git
and tried to push after some changes and commits
git push origin master
you might get this error it happened to me
erase the local repository and re-clone using git+ssh
git pull git+ssh://github.com/user/repo.git
and now your push should work
ssh-add -A resolved my issue in MacOS Sierra 10.12.6.
I had no problem both for public and private repo before.
Today I tried to clone or git pull for private repo, but it hit the above issues.
After search around, this is the perfect solution for me.
I had same issue on my private Ubuntu server using ssh.
My workaround solution was:
open shell on my private server
git init --bare /path/<myapp>.git
and then, from my developer laptop
git push <remote_repo> <local branch>
has finally worked well.
PS:
I've never tried, but remote repo with https seems working better than ssh.
I hope this help.
If you have updated you OSX recently you have to call ssh-add -A
. Have a look at this answer: https://apple.stackexchange.com/questions/254468/macos-sierra-doesn-t-seem-to-remember-ssh-keys-between-reboots
Installing a root/CA Certificate
Given a CA certificate file foo.crt, follow these steps to install it on Ubuntu:
Create a directory for extra CA certificates in /usr/share/ca-certificates:
sudo mkdir /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra
Copy the CA .crt file to this directory:
sudo cp foo.crt /usr/share/ca-certificates/extra/foo.crt
Let Ubuntu add the .crt file's path relative to /usr/share/ca-certificates to /etc/ca-certificates.conf:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure ca-certificates
This is an old post, but this is they only thing that I found that worked.
I also had the exact same error and for some reason restarting my pc solved the error. Maybe it works for somone else too :P
If it's a public repo, just clone using https
. No need to use passwords or setup SSH keys.
if you want to push/pull any repository from local to remote(git hub)
first checkout
$ git push https://<git-hub url>
working fine with username and passwd credential
$ git push git@<git-hub url>
fail
Could not read remote repository. Please make sure you have the correct access rights and the repository exists.
this means you need to add id_rsa.pub to authorized_keys
goto
$ cd /home/admin/.ssh
$ls
$vi authorized_keys
add id_rsa keys(n no of keys you can add)

I had the same issue with Pycharm on Ubuntu the solution is to use https instead of SSH for example : https://github.com/Bedo1212/myrepo.git
If you're using SSH, make sure you're using a network that allows SSH. Most public networks allow only HTTP(S) traffic.
Hi my problem was that my client did not ask if I recognized the key. Opening a terminal and doing ssh -T git@github.com
worked. The response in the terminal asked if I wanted to add the key, I said yes and after that, my client worked fine
I had a similar issue, Until I realized, I was running my machine through a proxy address for my internet connection and it happens to close the host connection. This could be one of the few reasons too.
