Git Push Error - Could not resolve host name

Question

nshastri@N-SHASTRI ~/datasciencecoursera (master) $ git push origin master 

ssh: Could not resolve hostname https: no address associated with name

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

Answer 1

Simply type:

git remote -v 

and double-check the url associated with origin for your upstream repo.

Once you have the right url, update your remote origin with another git remote command:

git remote set-url origin /the/right/url 

In your case, the url is wrong:

https:/github.com/nkshastri/datasciencecoursera.git # instead of: https://github.com/nkshastri/datasciencecoursera.git      ^^^^ 

Simply type:

git remote set-url origin https://[email protected]/nkshastri/datasciencecoursera 

Then try again:

git push -u origin master 

(with master, not maaster)
