SSH Connection refused - the answer must be simpler than everything I tried.

Hey all.

I've added my dev machine's SSH key to my BitBucket account... I can access my repos all good.

I've added the SSH key of my staging server to my bitbucket account, the same was as above. However I am getting errors. Here's some output for debug:

 

staging@staging1:~/web/client.ppstaging.com$ service ssh status

staging@staging1:~/web/client.ppstaging.com$ ssh-add -l

Is it a problem with port 2257?

Is there something I missed during setup?

I've been going around in circles with this. Any direction appreciated.

Thank you.

I found the issue to be in my ssh_config file.

It was set to use port 2257 for some reason, instead of the default.

Removing that line fixed everything.

Hi @yoyilmaz ,

I attach the Atlassian documentation related to your problem: https://confluence.atlassian.com/bitbucket/troubleshoot-ssh-issues-271943403.html

Hope it works.

Thanks @Francesc_Arbó

I've been up and down that page a dozen times to get this far anyway.

I added my server's pub SSH key to my BitBucket account, under my personal details. I have a team (where I am the Admin), and a project with 3 repos. I figured that I simply need to add this SSH key to "me", and not the team / project / individual repos -- since BitBucket knows which repos I have access to.

Could there be a problem there somewhere?
