Remote URL test failed: Authentication failed for ...

Why does IntelliJ refuses to add this URL and does not even ask me for my credentials (login/password)?

  • Please read [ask]. A screenshot by itself isn't a very good question. At the very least, tell is what error message you are seeing (as text, not just in your screenshot). It looks like you have an authentication error; are you _entirely sure_ you're using the right credentials? – ChrisGPT was on strike Oct 01 '18 at 01:24

  • @Chris The question behind the picture was quite clear to me: I have edited the post to make it explicit. – VonC Oct 01 '18 at 07:36

Check if you have a credential helper (set to manager)

git config credential.helper

That could have cached the wrong credentials, and would be automatically picked up by Git within IntelliJ.

You would need to remove the entry for that remote in the Windows Credential Manager, as shown here.
