What steps did you do before execting that command?

In general: Ionic Pro receives support via this form: http://ionicframework.com/support#support

I have the same error message, any help would be appreciated.

Steps:

  1. ionic link --pro-id myappid (setup works fine)
  2. git remote add origin https://mygithubrepourl
  3. git push --set-upstream origin master
  4. git add -p
  5. git commit -m “Million dollar commit”
  6. git push ionic master

fatal: ‘ionic’ does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

This is from an existing app, so it was not created with the new ionic start.

What does git remote -v output for you?
If I understood it correctly, ionic link --pro-id should have added an ionic remote.

Standard Ionic Pro disclaimer: You should also contact support at http://ionicframework.com/support#support to get an official reply as we have no idea how stuff should work or works internally.

Thanks for the tip Sujan12, git remote -v only output my github.com repositeries, no ionic related urls found.
Something is probably wrong with my setup, the strange part is during the process ionic link --pro-id 0ed... successfully created a ionic ssh key/pair.

I filed a ticket in the meantime, I’ll let you know if I get to the bottom of this.

here is the solution :slight_smile:

edit ionic.config.json

remove the app id “app_id”: “xxxxxx” (xxxxx here )
now run “ionic link” and your are done , this will add ionic origin .

Have you tried

ionic ssh setup

to configure your public key? This looks to me like the link was set up but the ssh key was not set up properly.

Yes, I confirm it’s the same error I had. Basically on windows 7, often. There is a conflict between ssh root directory and previous key/pairs. And when you try to automatically generate them for ionic it works more or less, with errors.

Looks like it’s an issues caused by the SSH key. How about trying to re-generate and reset a SSH key in the dashboard?

Dashboard: https://dashboard.ionicjs.com/settings/ssh-keys
It’s in the account settings --> SSH Keys.

Here’s the documentation.

It doesn’t worked for me. I deleted app_id from ionic.config.json and typed ionic link. I’ve got:

✔ Looking up your apps - done!

? Which app would you like to link MyAppName (MyAppId)
> ionic config set app_id "MyAppId" --json
[OK] app_id set to "MyAppId" in ./ionic.config.json!
[OK] Project linked with app MyAppId!

And that was it. After that, I tried git push ionic master and i got:

fatal: 'ionic' does not appear to be a git repository
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

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

Any ideias? :confused:

It looks like it’s because of different key / pairs on the same computer/device. The issue is not from Ionic, but from our setup if we had previous ssh certificates running before.

Hope it helps,

François

Unfortunately, not. :frowning:
I get what u r saying, but it should exists a solution to situations like that. How many people will add Ionic Pro to its apps much later after creating it’s projects? Got it?

What about just running

git push git@git.ionicjs.com:your_ionic_pro_id/appname.git

It might be ionic.js, not at computer right now and don’t recall

@matheuscas I get it sure, and my app is not yet into Ionic Pro because of that issue. But it doesn’t mean, Ionic can do all the hard stuff. Personnally I got one answer from support, and the truth is the bad is on my side, not the Ionic Pro technology by itself.

Regards,

I do agree. Would u mind to share their response? Maybe it could help us both.

I gess so but how can I delete this ssh Keys to star again?
PS sorry about my english, Im brazilian…

This was the answer.

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you on this. If you're still having trouble, it seems most likely that there was some issue with the ionic link​ command. You should be able to force it by manually adding the ionic remote with this command:

git remote add  ionicgit@git.ionicjs.com:abbeyseto/jarajobs.git​

Let us know if this helps – thanks!

After some personal digging, it didn’t solve any issue.

François

@ozory doing ionic link --pro from inside your project should delete your previous key

Or ionic init

From there you could try to link your ionic app with ionic pro again

Hope it helps,

François
