Gitlab HTTP Basic: Access denied and fatal:Authentication failed
Introduction
Today was the first day I got started to learn how to CI/CD on Gitlab. Everything was fine until I tried to push my first change. I’m a VsCode lover, and it provides a great user interface to do git actions. I clicked the push button, and Gitlab requested me to log in. Okay, but actually this was the first time to do it. So I used the correct account. Then the error message jumped out. And the logging box never appeared again.
Error message
remote: HTTP Basic: Access denied
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://gitlab.com/Jaimecclin/taiwanstock.git/'Solution
It seems that the wrong account was already remembered in my OS. My OS is windows 10. The solution is searching for “Credential Manager” in your system.
Select “Windows Credentials” and find out the Gitlab account.
If this helps you, please give me a clap. Thanks!
Happy debugging!
