Jenkins issue with Git [Permission denied (publickey).] on Windows

Viewed 6888

I know that thousands of topics touch my problem but I am fighting this from several days with almost zero progress ;(.

I installed Jenkins on Windows machine.
Then acquired Git plugin and the Git itself.
Everything is latest version for the day of my writing.
I was just happy to start to play with Jenkins but I failed at configuring my Bitbucket repository to be used by Job.

I set the exact path to git.exe (as it seemed the reason for initial problems) [C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.exe].

Then I tried accessing the repository by HTTPS with account credentials, many strange errors here so I thought let's try with SSH.

I have generated rsa keys, set the public key in the Bitbucket repository. Then I created credential configuration in Jenkins for SSH authentication with passphrase.
I have many problems here so for temporary workaround I explicitly set the value of private key.
Finaly I got to the place where I am now:

+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*" returned status code 128:
stdout: 
stderr: Permission denied (publickey).
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

When I try to manualy copy repository, it politely asks me about passphrase and the copy is done. When Jenkins job does it the above happens. With help of %USERNAME% and %USERDOMAIN% in the Job's script I get the same values like when I do it manually.

After plenty of hours I can say I can't use Git in Jenkins ;(

UPDATE

I don't believe that it could be so simple. As mainframer mentioned, I left passphrase empty for the whole SSH authentication and it really worked (the repository is cloned even that Jenkins still shows the same error in job's configuration page). I only wonder about any consequences of such setup, but working thing is more valuable for me now.
