it’s a new setup, installed AWX using the k3s cluster. I added a project and source control credential(Private key) and when I try to do project sync. I get the below-mentioned error. when I run the same command in the host machine it works fine. No issues with the private key. Can someone help me with this.

Identity added: /tmp/pdd\_wrapper\_25\_2ufmikle/awx\_25\_lfq59ntz/artifacts/25/ssh\_key\_data (awx\_access)

This is fixed. There was a wrong DNS entry in the kube cluster.  
Thanks
