gerrit setup git repo -- permission denied

Question

I am new to gerrit, and I am now trying to setup gerrit a git project.I am now searching help for resolving a permission denied issue, any help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

I am using gerrit + http + mysql, I am now have following problem:

1. As I checked my database, I can not find 'login_type' and 'login_http_head' from "system_config" in my database, which is described http://gerrit.googlecode.com/svn-history/r243/documentation/2.0/config-sso.html

2. When I click admin->projects, a prompt said "missing project all-projects"

3. When I checked my accounts from database, there are two empty users (I think it's because I did not set them in the UIweb page)

4. I cannot register new accounts from UIweb page, I cannot use command line create new users also.

Following are my steps for ssh-key and register:

1. I used ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 2048 (Searchign from internet, I don't know what does 2048 mean)

2. I use git config to config a nickname and email, I registered ssh-key by the UIweb page.

3. use ssh -p 29418 admin@localhost gerrit create-project --name example.git I got a prompt: "Permission denied (publickkey)."

4. After searching from internet, I used ssh -vv -p 29418 admin@localhost gerrit

I got the following output:

gerrit2@bst-esa3-bs:~$ ssh -vv -p 29418 admin@localhost gerrit --help

Did you upload your ssh key into Gerrit through the web interface? Are you sure your username in Gerrit is 'admin'?
