Connection blocked because server only allows public key authentication

Question

I'm new to using git, and I'm trying to connect to my repo on GitLab. I keep getting the following error message:

Received disconnect from 35.231.145.151 port 22:2: Connection blocked because server only allows public key authentication. Please contact your network administrator. Disconnected from 35.231.145.151 port 22 fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

I've tried to add a new public key, as well as remove the known hosts file and have gitlab added to a new one. Nothing seems to work.

Can anyone please help me with this?

Thank you in advance!

Answer 1

Seems that the error happened because of SSL/SSH inspection on the firewall, please check with your network administrator to fix it.
