There was a permanent problem cloning the repo

[wuyasong]

I have a problem when I deploy my new project, details is:
Running build in Washington, D.C., USA (East) – iad1

15:43:27.054  Cloning github.com/xxx (Branch: main, Commit: f7b15ab)

15:43:27.067  Skipping build cache, deployment was triggered without cache.

15:43:27.114  There was a permanent problem cloning the repo.

15:44:19.162  There was a permanent problem cloning the repo.

15:46:17.163  There was a permanent problem cloning the repo.

Then I went to github to check my deployment history, details is:

This Deployment has been disabled.

Your connection is working correctly.

Vercel is working correctly.

404: NOT_FOUND
Code: DEPLOYMENT_DISABLED
ID: sin1::vzls9-1733730519178-b5698a765de5

I don’t know what the reason is, please help me.

Hi @wuyasong, welcome to the Vercel Community!

Have you tried disconnecting and reconnecting the GitHub account to your Vercel account?
If not, can you give it a try? That might fix it.

Thanks for posting your issue here.

Thanks, I have reconnected to github in [ Project Settings → Connected Git Repository → reconnected ], it still get error log:

Permanent Problem Cloning Repository During Build Process

Hey @erbanku! It looks like github.com/erbanku/xxx is either a private repo, or maybe just a placeholder you entered here to keep the name private. Some solutions to try: Verify GitHub Status: Check if there are any ongoing issues reported on the GitHub Status page that might affect the cloning process. There are no issues on the status page at the moment, but I see an incident from a couple of days ago that may have caused this issue for you: Disruption with some GitHub services Check…

Hello, Is there any new progress on this issue?

[anshumanb (Anshuman Bhardwaj)]

Hi @wuyasong, sorry no updates yet!

We’ll update the thread as soon as we have information.

[wuyasong]

Is there any other way to avoid this problem first? I am in a hurry to deploy.

The error message, “There was a permanent problem cloning the repo,” usually indicates that the Vercel integration was not able to access the GitHub repo. I recommend checking and updating the Vercel app permissions on your GitHub account to ensure that the repo can be accessed when deploying the project.

What happens if you try to deploy from a local copy of your repo using the CLI? That will either provide you with a workaround so you can deploy quickly, or it will give you more details about why the deployment fails.

Deploying Projects from Vercel CLI

I try to deploy with vercel cli, got error:

[wuyasong]

I found that I configured proxy locally, but I have commented the code, and executing the “vercel” command again still reports this error

@anshumanb @amyegan Thanks for your patient reply, I have found the problem. The reason is that I configured https_proxy in “Environment Variables”, so the deployment could not be successful. Now after I deleted this variable, everything is back to normal.
