RTEMS Newbie can not make Deployment git clone work - bad public ssh key

GitLab

I am at the steps in Deployment building a clone directory where - I have issued
git submodule add ssh://git@gitlab.rtems.org:2222/rtems/tools/rtems-source-builder.git
I don’t seem to have a way to check to see if the path is correct but I cannot connect via ssh as I do not have ssh key that matches the public key.

I was in the user manual at 5.11 - Deployment, having completed the compilation of tools for aarch64 for raspberry Pi4.

Am I missing a step. I am assuming I need to create a clone spot to build a board package for raspberry pi 4b. This was a first step in making a host development environment.

I setup my own account ab4td0602 and setup ssh public and private keys with the expectation that I needed an account on gitlab where I could clone the /rtems/tools/ directories an files for ssh access. But that is impractical since I can not access anything in the ssh://git@gitlab.rtems.org:2222/rtems/tools/rtems-source-builder.git path

I need some help with this.

You don’t need ssh access to clone. Use the https link provided in the GitLab repo. As for the docs question you should make that a separate topic I can help with getting it cloned though.

SSH access is only required if you want to push to your own repositories or forks.

git submodule add RTEMS / Tools / RTEMS Source Builder · GitLab
That worked - I cannot confirm that that is the correct module needed - but the user manual needs to be updated to avoid access problems and ambiguity of where to acquire the correct modules.

Thanks for your response Jim

You’re welcome!

@kiwichris should that be changed to use https is there a reason it’s ssh?

I can not tell yet - I didn’t get very far after that. I was able to create the submodule add - But the subsequent command

./rtems-source-builder/source-builder/sb-set-builder \

–prefix=/opt/project --log=project.txt
–bset-tar-file --no-install
project-tools

came back - Build Failed
