Below is the error when we run the job from agent nodes in jenkins, it works fine when we run the same job on controller.

ERROR: Error cloning remote repo 'origin'
hudson.plugins.git.GitException: Command "git fetch --tags --progress git@github.com:xxxxxxxxx/xxxxxxxxxxxx.git +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*" returned status code 128:
stdout: 
stderr: ubuntu@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.
  1. Tried : added ssh to git
  2. slave node configured to git username and keys

Anyone have any clue , why the agent node is not connected with git

jenkins-job-dsl connection git github jenkins

Try with:

  • a private key created without passphrase (that way, you don't need an SSH agent)
  • said private key registered in the credentials, using the Jenkins SSH Credentials Plugin

Make sure to select that credentials when using your SSH Git URL in the Jenkins pipeline definition.
