I am trying to clone a Gitlab repository inside a cluster computer. It asks me for the password for git@gitlab... And once I enter it, it denies the permission.

I have set an SSH Key in Gitlab inside the cluster (I copy pasted the key in authorized-keys file) but it is not being used by Gitlab (I checked it in Gitlab, it says it was never used).

I am getting the following:

[user@eu-login-12-ng ~]$ git clone git@gitlab.ethz.ch:user/test.git
Cloning into 'test'...
git@gitlab.ethz.ch's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
git@gitlab.ethz.ch's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
git@gitlab.ethz.ch's password: Connection reset by 129.132.93.72 port 22

If I try clone it in my local computer, it works fine.

What can I do?

This usually happens when your SSH key isn't added right to your ssh-agent or isn't being served. When you saved the SSH key that you generated, what did you save it as? And how did you generate the key? – Thomas Ward Apr 23 '19 at 17:23
The ssh key is in the authorized_keys file from the cluster (inside .ssh folder that was already there), the file was created already, I just copy pasted the key there and in gitlab @ThomasWard – user11400799 Apr 23 '19 at 17:26
