BitBucket - Git - Permission denied (publickey)

First of all, I would like you to know that I have read thoroughly 20+ posts on the topic. However, it is still not working after 2 days, so... I finally give up and acknowledge that I CANNOT set up this ssh connection...

Ok, painful enough. Now here is what I did (at least 3 times) :

  1. I generate a set of ssh keys with the command :

    ssh-keygen -t rsa

  2. Here are the permissions for both the .ssh folder and the rsa keys :

    $ ls -al | grep .ssh
drwx------  2 local local     4096 mars  28 11:17 .ssh

$ ls -al .ssh/
-rw-r--r--  1 local local  802 mars  11 17:11 authorized_keys
-rw-r--r--  1 local local   61 mars  28 11:17 config
-rw-------  1 local local 1675 mars  28 11:14 id_rsa
-rw-------  1 local local  396 mars  28 11:14 id_rsa.pub
-rw-------  1 local local 1326 mars  25 17:38 known_hosts

  3. I copied the content of id_rsa_.pub to my BitBucket account. I am sure this is done flawlessly, I triple checked.

  4. I edited .ssh/config so it looks like this :

    $ cat .ssh/config 
Host bitbucket.org
IdentityFile /home/local/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

  5. And here is the output of ssh -v [email protected] :

    $ ssh -v [email protected]

If you have any idea why I still get the Permission denied (publickey) message, please do share it with me. I am in great despair :D

IdentityFile /home/local/.ssh/id_rsa.pub

You're using the public key file here. You should use the private key file instead. It's probably called id_rsa:

IdentityFile /home/local/.ssh/id_rsa
