ssh -T hg@bitbucket.org says logged in but push to repository from Sourcetree says permission denied

[Bryan Mauger]

ssh -T hg@bitbucket.org says logged in - You can use git or hg to connect to Bitbucket.

but when pushing to repository from Sourcetree error message says Permission denied (publickey)

Never had this problem before and I've been trying to remedy it for hours. I'm stumped!

I needed to create a second ssh key since I'm using Bitbucket for both work and personal. Creating a second ssh key solved the problem.

Hi Bryan!

Have you checked that the credentials you have stored are correct? You can also check in the 'Accounts' section in Sourcetree if it's still using the right SSH key.

If everything seems to be fine and you're still getting that error, I'd recommend wiping Sourcetree preferences.

Let us know if that helped!

Thank you. It turned out that I needed to create an additional ssh key since I use one for my work account (this one to be use for personal items). Creating the additional key solved the problem.

Glad it's working now!

Have a good day,
