             Summary: OpenShift Express Tool:  cannot create/import an application on a clean windows environment
                 Key: JBIDE-11357
                 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-11357
             Project: Tools (JBoss Tools)
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: openshift
    Affects Versions: 3.3.0.Beta1
         Environment: Windows 7
            Reporter: Nam Duong
            Assignee: Andre Dietisheim


The Eclipse plugin version showing is:   JBoss OpenShift Express Tools	2.3.0.v20120308-2230-H57-Beta1	org.jboss.tools.openshift.express.feature.feature.group	JBoss by Red Hat

On a new windows VM where new means:
  - No ssh keys, nor .ssh directory
  - git is a clean install from cygwin (no git config --globals set yet)
  - rhc client tools have not yet been executed
     - meaning there's no .ssh/config file
I'm not able to clone my application's repo.  That means I'm not able to create a new openshift project, or import a project from an existing openshift application. 

Steps to reproduce:
1) Open OpenShift Express Console view
2) Select my domain -> App
3) Right-click on App, select Import Application
4) Login
5) Use existing selected application, click next
6) Check "Create a New Project" click next
7) Click ssh Preferences
8) Create my ssh keys
9) Post my ssh public key to my control_panel   (https://openshift.redhat.com/app/control_panel)
10) Back on Eclipse, click Apply, OK, and Finish
Error:
Could not clone the repository. Authentication failed.
 Please make sure that you added your private key to the ssh preferences.
ssh://cb2e5dfe1b3046f0ae7847e26ecc926f@kitchensink-nduongdemo.rhcloud.com/~/git/kitchensink.git/: session is down

NOTE that we tried many different things.  The only workaround we have is if you:
1) Install the rhc client tools
2) create the domain
  - this step creates the ssh keys and posts the ssh public key
3) create the app
  - this clones the app locally
4) modify a file, and then git commit -a -m "first commit"
  - This step forces the user to set git config --global parameters
5) git push

Only then, can the steps above work (where of course, you no longer need to create the ssh keys using ssh preferences)
