Circle CI: error cloning repository: repository not found

While trying to build a project in CircleCI I got the below error:

Either git or ssh (required by git to clone through SSH) is not installed in the image. Falling back to CircleCI's native git client but the behavior may be different from official git. If this is an issue, please use an image that has official git and ssh installed. Cloning git repository

error cloning repository: repository not found

And this causes the build to fail.

Here's how I solved it:

The issue was that the engineer who set up the project set a Deploy Key and User Key specific to him left the company, so his access to the company GitHub repo projects was revoked, which made the existing Deploy Key and User Key for the project in Circle CI obsolete.

All I had to do was to:

  • Go to Project Settings
  • Then SSH Keys
  • Remove the existing Deploy Key and User Key (if any)
  • Add a new Deploy Key
  • (Optional - Not needed) Add a new User key (by authorizing with GitHub)

enter image description here

After this, I was able to build the project successfully in Circle CI
