Unable to use git push (basic authentication)

Hi,
I can’t use git push and this is the error message with more relative clues for investigate this case. The feature of the gitea is that I set htpasswd with basic authentication for usage.

I found there is a slight different in the failure message-“remote: invalid credentials”. :thinking:

remote: invalid credentials
fatal: Authentication failed for ‘http://example.com/gitea_user/gitea_repo.git

If I use none of the user inside of the htpasswd, of course, it has the the same message because of the Authentication. But, there isn’t the failure message-“remote: invalid credentials”.

I can use git clone and browser visiting to site.

This is app.ini file.

This is the nginx configuration.
