$ git remote add origin https://github.com/natmanu/demo_app.git
$ git push -u origin master

it then requests my email and password then returns an error. please see attached screen shot for error.

follow the tutorial on github first for how to create a repo and push to it from your computer for the first time.

Follow this tutorial: https://help.github.com/articles/generating-ssh-keys

Thanks for the replies.

The problem is that I have already pushed once and it worked well.

https://github.com/natmanu/first_app

after this I installed heroku. I think heroku (ON WINDOWS ) also installed a git so maybe there’s a conflict. but I dotn know where to start looking for conflict.

Cheers Nat

Hi,

More info:

In my .ssh directory on windows, I have 2 SSH public keys

github_rsa github_rsa.pub id_rsa id_rsa.pub

And on my remote Git I have only one key. Can I add two SSH to github?

or can I call git and specify which key to use for authentication???

Note that this is not the Git help list.

Hi Temple,

Try ::

git remote -v

git push -f

I have plenty of ssh keys at github. One foe each of my PCs, one for my server, and every PC has at least 2 operating systems which have it’ its own key each.

They never interfered each other.

You should not use HTTPS for push, delete that remote and add it again using ssh protocol!
