If you’re looking for some help, it’s important to provide as much context as possible so that people are able to assist you. Try to always mention:

I’m trying to run docs.ghost.org locally and ran into two issues:

#Issue 1:
While running git submodule update --init, I ran into this issue. Not sure what it is.

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

fatal: clone of 'git@github.com:TryGhost/docs-api.git' into submodule path '/Users/svikashk/Downloads/docs/content/api/v2' failed

Failed to clone 'content/api/v2' a second time, aborting

Cloning into '/Users/svikashk/Downloads/docs/content/api/v0.11'...

git@github.com: Permission denied (publickey).

fatal: Could not read from remote repository.

#Issue 2:
Even after running yarn and then copy and pasting .env.example to .env.development, I get

Error: GHOST_API_URL and GHOST_API_KEY are required to build. Check the CONTRIBUTING guide.

I’m not sure if #Issue 2 is because of #Issue 1. I git cloned from source today. Any pointers on what I might be getting wrong?

Looks like the parent repository is trying to set up the submodule using SSH, but you haven’t set up SSH with Github yet. I think if you follow these guides you should be all set:

Check for existing SSH keys

Generate a new one, if you don’t already have one

Add your key to your Github account

Awesome! Works like a charm now. Thanks @John. :slight_smile:
