GitLab Remote: HTTP Basic: Access denied. fatal: Authentication failed

Dung Do Tien Nov 09 2021 179

Hello, 

I have a project with Asp.net Core 3.1 and I managed source code by using GitLab.

Today I changed the password of GitLab and I try to pull code with git pull command and I got an error remote: HTTP Basic: Access denied. fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://gitlab.com/bookmanager/bookmanager_v2.git/'.

E:\Project\abc\2019\BookManager\v2\BookManager3\bookmanager_v2\QDM.CMS (master -> origin)
λ git pull
remote: HTTP Basic: Access denied
fatal: Authentication failed for 'https://gitlab.com/bookmanager/bookmanager_v2.git/'

I tried to remove the origin and re-add it, like this:

git remote -v 
git remote remove origin 
git remote add origin git@github.com:user/repo.git  

But it does not work for me.

Do you have any suggestions for me?

    Because you change the password so you need to re-login into Gitlab. You can do as below:

    1. Open Cmd, run with mode Run As Administrator. (it's required)

    2. Run command 

    git config --system --unset credential.helper

    It will require you to enter your Username & Password. 

    After login success, you can run git pull well for you.

    I hope it is solved for you.

    Hi, I got the same issue whenever I change my login password.

    Below is the command I need to run to fix this issue:-

     git config --global credential.helper wincred

    After running this command, it will ask you again to update your username and password.

    And solved the issue for you.
