Problem to solve

I’m working on how to sync a repositoty, hosted on a self-managed gitlab-ce version, to bitbucket.

Steps to reproduce

  • Create a test repository on bitbucket i.e. TestSyncGitlab with README and .gitignore files
  • On Gitlab-ce: Import the TestSyncGitlab repository to Gitlab using Import projects from Bitbucket
  • On Gitlab-ce: choose the TestSyncGitlab repository, then Settings → Repository → Mirroring repositories
  • Configure the mirror repository
  • Click on UPDATE NOW button
  • Wait until get the error:
    13:get remote references: create git ls-remote: exit status 128, stderr: “No ED25519 host key is known for bitbucket.org and you have requested strict checking.\r\nHost key verification failed.\r\nfatal: Could not read from remote repository.\n\nPlease make sure you have the correct access rights\nand the repository exists.\n”.

but the command git clone ssh://git@bitbucket.org/OWNER/testsyncgitlab.git works fine on the server.

Configuration

Add new mirror repository
URL: ssh://git@bitbucket.org/OWNER/testsyncgitlab.git
Mirror direction: PUSH
Choose SSH as Authentication method
User name: OWNER
