That error usually shows up when Git can't reach GitHub properly — it's more of a network or SSL issue, not a problem with the repo itself. Double-check your network 1If you’re on a corporate VPN, behind a proxy, or using restricted Wi-Fi, it might be blocking GitHub. Try cloning again using a mobile hotspot or from a different network.
Make sure Git is updated Older versions of Git can have SSL/TLS handshake issues with GitHub. Run:
git --version If it’s old, upgrade to a newer version.
Try the SSH URL instead (if you’ve got SSH keys set up):
git clone git@githubdomian:aws-samples/aws-blockchain-node-runners.git
Check if curl or Git can hit GitHub: curl https://github.com If that fails, your system might be blocking outbound HTTPS.
Let me know what setup you're on (OS, Git version, network) — happy to help dig deeper if it still fails.
The error you're encountering while trying to clone the AWS blockchain node runners repository from GitHub suggests there might be an issue with your access to the repository or your network connection. Here are a few steps you can try to resolve this issue:
-
Check your internet connection to ensure it's stable and working properly.
-
Verify that you have the necessary permissions to access the repository. If it's a private repository, make sure you're authenticated with GitHub.
-
If you're using an SSH URL, try using the HTTPS URL instead (which is what you've provided in your error message).
-
Ensure that your Git installation is up to date.
-
If you're behind a corporate firewall or using a VPN, check if it's blocking your access to GitHub.
-
Try clearing your Git credentials and re-entering them.
-
If you're using a GitHub token for authentication, make sure it's valid and hasn't expired. You may need to generate a new token if the current one is invalid.
If none of these steps resolve the issue, you may want to check GitHub's status page to see if there are any ongoing issues with their service. If the problem persists, you might need to contact your network administrator or GitHub support for further assistance.
