I am working on CI/CD pipeline (GitLab) build and I want to update my submodule. ( In local git submodule update --init --recursive --remote works well). But the same thing in the pipeline gives the below error:

Host key verification failed.
fatal: Could not read from remote repository.
Please make sure you have the correct access rights
and the repository exists.

I try to use git submodule update --init --recursive --remote command in the scripts section. But it works well in the terminal.

You need to create project access tokens, if you don't have permissions ask the admin to create

To create a project access token:

  1. On the top bar, select Main menu > Projects and find your project.
  2. Settings > Access Tokens.
  3. Enter a name.
  4. Select a role for the token.
  5. Select Create project access token.

Edit the .gitmodules file from your project. Enter the newly created username and token below

url = https://$(USERNAME):$(PROJECT_ACCESS_TOKEN)@github.com/user/repository.git

Set the GIT_SUBMODULE_STRATEGY : normal in your CI/CD
