Failed to clone the repo due to access right

[ichxorya]

I'm running this app on Windows 10. First, I ran into this issue.

Your machine is not setup for a secure connection to Github. Please follow the instructions here: https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/troubleshooting-ssh/error-permission-denied-publickey

By following this guide, my problem was solved. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/2643502/git-how-to-solve-permission-denied-publickey-error-when-using-git

But for now I'm stuck with this.

Failed to clone Github repo

Caused by:
    `git clone [email protected]:ichxorya/rqst-async.git` failed, stderr:
    Cloning into 'rqst-async'...
    [email protected]: Permission denied (publickey).
    fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
    
    Please make sure you have the correct access rights
    and the repository exists.

Update: I should have read the README (authentication using Github CLI).

This is what happen next:

Same issues for me too

I did get the above mentioned errors on Windows 11. I could overcome them and able to start a quest using the below steps.

1. To add SSH access to your github account from your computer, follow the below links
   https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/generating-a-new-ssh-key-and-adding-it-to-the-ssh-agent
   https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/connecting-to-github-with-ssh/adding-a-new-ssh-key-to-your-github-account

Note that the ssh key file name is "id_ed25519" (ed25519 is the algorithm used to generate the ssh keys)
And also do not enter any passphrase while generating the ssh keys

2. If you have already have a local github repository from the template code at rqst-async, delete your local github repository and try again. (Reason : RepoQuest would attempt to create it again and raise an error if it is there.)

@madanmohany that worked for me, thanks
